Focus on Focus
So I have a problem with focus. I've admitted that for a long time. My problem being I have a hard time focusing on more than one thing at a time. I've been thinking about this problem and whether or not I can harness it as opposed to fighting and trying to fix it. Its like, when I had to build the Sarahpeutics site, I just locked myself in my apt and did it over a couple weeks, then it was done. I could have spead it out more and had more balance of my time, working some days, climbing others. But it was just easier to focus full-time on the task at hand and get it done. So, here I am trying to get various projects done, while getting my climbing in at the same time and I'm having a difficult time of it. I get in this loop where I have a hard time getting motivated to get on these projects, but then when I'm given a chance to go climb (or some other activity), I don't feel motivated to do that either out of guilt for not having gotten enough work done. That is a good deal of my problem with focus. So the question is, instead of fighting or trying to magically fix this problem I have, maybe I should just accept it and harness it. Going from one extreme focus to another over short periods of time. Does that make any sense, or is that just insane?Posted by wonko at August 7, 2003 01:13 PM
