The joy of focus

Today I forgot to eat breakfast and got moving very late because I was immersed in what I was doing. Spending so much time being interrupted and allowing myself to be interrupted I had started to forget the pure and simple joy of focused, productive work. I intended to try and achieve that state as often as possible. I need to blow off a few meeting reminders, phone calls and the like. It’s good for the soul.

    No blowing off my phone calls or ignoring me & the girls!!!

  2. One of the key challenges in a passionately productive life is learning to be immersed in one’s work and well organized in all areas of life, such as friendship, leisure activities, and the necessities such as health and finances.

    It is possible. Facets of Ayn Rand, by Mary Ann and Charles Sures, shows some of the details of such a life. It deserves a slow, thoughtful reading.
