First, care.

For as long as you know in your heart that what you’re making or doing matters, and, consequently, for as long as you accept and embrace the immutable laws of scarcity, your options for maintaining focus will…remain stunningly obvious.

Anymore posts and I’m officially web-stalking Merlin.

What Your 16-Hour Workday Says About You!

jessiechar:

  • You’re a really hard worker
  • Your time is poorly managed
  • You don’t know what to do with your life
  • Your boss knows you’re gullible
  • At least 40% of your diet consists of pre-packaged food
  • You send out work emails at inappropriate hours
  • You have no perspective on life
  • You don’t sleep enough for proper brain function
  • You have very little self-respect
  • Your salary should be higher, but isn’t
  • You drink either too much or not enough

You can keep bringing up procrastination or you can just man up and say the reason I’m procrastinating is that I’m doing a bunch of crap I don’t care about and I don’t have the stones to drop the stuff that doesn’t matter and focus on the stuff that really does.

Ria van Dijk's Life in Pictures

In almost every picture #7 tells the story of a Dutch woman whose life is seen from the point of view of a fairground shooting gallery.

The chronological series begins in 1936, when a 16-year-old girl from Tilburg in Holland picks up a gun and shoots at the target in a shooting gallery. Every time she hits the target, it triggers the shutter of a camera and a portrait of the girl in firing pose is taken and given as a prize.”

I find this fascinating and beautiful.

My problem is that all things are increasingly interesting to me.

I’ve also found that taking the computer out to lunch can often help solve these problems in a non-violent fashion.
