Distractions

How many breaks do you take while you're working?

Do you focus in and work for hours at a time, or do you stop every 5 minutes to grab a soda, check Facebook, read the news, look at email, etc., etc.

Distractions you don't choose (a phone call, a knock at the door) can be obnoxious and keep you from getting work done. But distractions you do choose -- the fun distractions -- can be an easy way to keep yourself from focusing in on the work.

If you gave 100% of your attention to the work how would it change?

Dollars and Sense

Steve Pavlina just started a series of posts about passive income. The idea is to create multiple streams of revenue that will allow you to get paid when you're not working - you know, like royalty checks, ebook sales, etc. Sounds like a good thing to me.
