Focus on this…
This week I’ve been in lock-down mode. Two huge projects, one due today and one next Friday, have me extraordinarily focused. To the point where I have barely stopped to do anything to interrupt the flow. (Watching The Big Bang Theory on Monday night was a required, and fabulously funny, break.)
Into this mindset, a friend sent this article on willpower from the NY Times, as she and I are both highly focused right now (she to run a marathon!).
Opening mail, reading magazines online or off (you would not believe the stack that has now taken over my living room), and answering email messages have all taken a back seat. It’s amazing how, when focused, I can’t seem to even find five minutes to think about scheduling a lunch four weeks out, and how hard it was to stop to write this post.
Funny thing, the mind and willpower…
What do you give up, miss, or totally avoid doing when in head-down, all-hands-on-deck focus mode?
