Do you ever find yourself being distracted by the internet when you should really be getting on with other things that you have to do?
If it isnt mylot, its facebook. I have a 2000 word essay to write at the moment and i just keep getting distracted by these two sites which really isnt good :(

Yes!!! Guess we both have problems about setting our goals and achieving it? . Kidding aside, I am full of work now that I don't even know if I can sleep at all but I need an internet connection and I can't help myself checking out on mylot and facebook and even friendster too. I am just giving myself one hour to do things for myself then after which, I will start researching for my report, writing for my work and encoding stuff. I do wish I can do things fast enough so I can have quality sleeping time.

Yes! I get distracted all the time! If its not the internet its something on the tv, or somewhere i want to go, or something i want to make to eat. Its nearly impossible for me to get things done because i always get distracted by something. I actually had to go out and buy myself a day planner because i get so distracted, that i forget what it was that i was supposed to be doing. I dont know how many times my lawyers called me and been like "hello mrs. morgan, did you forget something?" and id be like aww man! i was supposed to call you wasnt i? haha. I would forget OB appointments, and job interviews. I was just a mess. Now that i have a day planner even if i get distracted i know that i have to get whatever it is done so i do it, but you know, its really hard sometimes. I might have add or something. I just get bored so easily, i tend to zone out and walk off. I swear, i would probably lose my head if it wasnt attached to me.

I get distracted all the time. I think it is natural but I think it can be prevented. When Im doing homework I tend to watch tv and browse the internet. Then when its time for bed then I get serious about my work which ends up making me go to bed late and be tired the next day. So I will set a time for everything now. Instead of relaxing when I get home from school I will right away jump into the assignment and do it since my mindset is still pretty much the same as it was at school. Try this it really does help. Then think of things to do later on and use this as motivation to finish your assignment and you will be done quicker than you think.
