I feel that I have gotten really good at creating an environment that is ideal for work. I walk or cycle to the business school, I set up my computer with an extra screen and I play the music that I work best to.

And this environment works really well. Sometimes.

But I find there are times where I struggle to focus regardless of the environment. Even if the work is enjoyable, I get easily distracted and then get frustrated with myself.

A prime example is today. I managed a good morning of work but by the afternoon I got so distracted that I couldn’t get back on track.

I think over the next few days I’m going to be mindful of what nudges me into this state. I’ll gently analyse what’s going on and try and see if I can bring myself back into focus.

Ideally, I’ll be finding the gaps in my foundation, fixing them up and understanding myself better so that work becomes even more enjoyable in the future


Routine update: managed to get up at 6am, meditate, exercise (yoga) and make it to work before 8 🙂 now for day 2!
