Distractions

I got distracted this last few days. If you don’t know, I have my hands in quite a few cookie jars. I know I have wrote about it before, about getting focused. I guess that people do that from time to time. I’m not perfect. Far from it.

I got distracted from using my new camera and web surfing looking for software to do editing etc. I guess that can’t be helped to a certain extent. If I don’t know what I can or cannot produce form my tools, then I’ll eventually hit the wall. The thing is, is that I have a habit of collecting tools and information too early without being productive immediately. Then also along the way, I found myself browsing sites with nice photographs. Sigh.

Anyhow, that’s sort of behind me. Time to get back to the path. The lesson I learned here is to know a bit of yourself. Time yourself when you planned on getting “distracted”. Any new thing in your life will distract you from what you must do. Sometimes, you can’t plan it. Like when there is an accident or a new child arrives to your family.

I guess, that what Seth Godin will call “The Dip”. Any changes you do will first take you lower than where you are before it takes you higher. If at all possible, don’t take too long a dip.
