It's been a while since I heard a good podcast. Here's one from Definitely Not the Opera with Sook-Yin Lee. It's all about FOCUSING ON DISTRACTIONS. I really connected with this one because as many of you know I have trouble focusing on a single task. I think what it boils down to is that I have a fear of completion. I'm afraid of not succeeding so I lose myself in things like Facebook, YouTube, and the good ol' TV.
"We have a variety of ways to distract ourselves. So is anyone getting anything done any more, or are we victims of our own distractions? Nick Purdon tries out "uni-tasking" to see if he actually gets more done when he narrows his focus. We'll find out how distractions may not have made Lisa Schwartzman a liar, liar... but they did set her pants on fire. And author Winifred Gallagher explains why attention is vital to leading a happy life."

I was able to narrow my distractions today and focus on pottery. I wasted some time, but I made four mugs, a bottle and a shot glass today! I've got to learn to focus better.
