Focus
-
I have none. Well, this morning went ok, but now I actually have to do something that requires thinking, rather than moving folders and files around and cleaning up the source repositories. Where's the mental lens to help with the focus? Some light would help too! Marc
You are not alone. I haven't had focus or motivation all day and my day started at 6 am EST.

:^)IT headaches have been destroying my focus so frequently recently that I haven't achieved anything coding wise for weeks. I used to be able to switch between roles without forgetting everything about what I was doing when I go back to a project. I think my brain must be shrinking :doh:
Nothing is exactly what it seems but everything with seems can be unpicked.

Focus is improved by the narrowing of vision. There's a philosophical notion in there somewhere, but I suspect I'm too focused to see it. :-D

Make sure you get plenty of it, combined with a complete diet and a full nights sleep. Lacking that, just OD on caffeine.

Early morning exercise. Getting enough sleep. Music. Remove clutter in your work area. Check the balance on your bank account. Open a window and feel a good clean breeze through the room. Make sure I have enough time for my projects so I don't resent the work I have to do for my paycheck. Talk to someone about what you are working on. Find something you want that depends on the work you have to do. That's whats been working for me. Sometimes I have to try a few before I find something that works, but something from that list usually works.

Thanks! That's actually very helpful. The diet is complete, the sleep wasn't that great, and exercise has been lacking since playing soccer on Sunday. Hmmmm. Marc

As long as you can avoid the posterior portion of the horse's anatomy, something that's occasionally difficult in our industry. :)
