When working, no Facebook!

Hello edsss17, I don't have facebook but I know what is facebook. If ever I have facebook, I wont be opening it whether I work home or outdoor. It will just make me bother and not being concentrated with what I am doing. I have seen people who work and while on the computer they are accessing their facebook which is not right,.

I used to be so addicted when I first joined facebook. These days I log on when I have somehting important to do or check out...or when I am just passing away time. I also think no facebook when working is the way to go.

well its a matter of self disciple. if you really wanted to work.even if your facebook is online you will still do your jobs first before using facebook.

I have been going to school online and I have to agree, I can't focus if I have facebook on while I'm trying to do my school work. I have to turn it off or I don't get anything done.

hi there, i guess facebook has now become a part of our lives. i know sometimes there is this feeling that i really need to open it for some important reasons but also there are times that i leave it open. well even when i am here on Mylot, i still open my facebook and it takes more time rather than working here on mylot hehehe

I totally agree with you. we shouldn't open facebook or twitter before our job done. Because in that site we can do a lot of fun like chat and game online that make us forget with our deadline.

No that's not silly and you are not alone. I too is a work at home mom and whenever I am working I cant help to sometimes stop and open facebook or mylot to check out things.

Facebook takes away boredom that's why some people use facebook even when at work. But, let's just keep in mind that doing FB is only to minimize stress and should not be used for the whole duration of our working time. I recommend to still use it wisely. :)

Facebook is definitely a distraction. But I tend to find MyLot to be a bigger distraction, I get bored with Facebook pretty easily especially if none of my friends are online. OF COURSE it's totally different with MyLot, I could waste my evenings after work AWAY on this site. I try to post quite a bit (my goal is to reach 10,000 by the end of this month! Wish me luck!) but I try to get things done every 10 posts or so. For example after posting this response I am going to go do some laundry! . Happy MyLotting!

i think you are right sometimes too much online with facebook, our concentration will be bothered since two days ago, i never visited facebook in my working time..because i still be busy for preparing my academic rank..even i still surf mylot LOL

I agree with you. hehehe. Since you handle your own time. Why don't you treat yourself at least an hour break. Every 4 hours you take a break on the next hour you do whatever you want. Then on the 6th hour you start working again. You feel great since you can accomplish two loads in a day. May I know what's your work?

Oh yes! Facebook is one heck of a distraction. Whenever I try to do some project or stuffs like that, I get a notification on my phone and then I'm on facebook without even realising it. It's strange how addicting facebook can get at times. And sometimes I'm just on there without doing anything, it's annoying!

facebook is one of thos sights that can jsut draw you in. i do not work but i know that is sometimes things so not get done around the house because i was to caught up in the new games,photos,or commetns my friends have posted lol. there are times i have to make myself get off and stay off all day so that i dont get distracted again lol

It is easy to get caught up in the networking. I do it. Keeping tabs on family and friends is as easy as a switch of a light. When it starts to interfere with your daily work, I think its time to shut it off for 3 or more days. At least that is the way I Look at it. Staying balanced is the important thing. Now if we could all just get so carried away when it came to thinking about Jesus. The world would surely be a different place.

I have this problem too, unfortunately. I think part of it is that I do work quite a bit plus have a toddler, so I feel a bit entitled to a break, but I would get more done without Facebook open or I could even just turn the computer off.

for me its not facebook but pintrest and mylot. i never go on these when i am at work because i wouldnt get anything done.

If we are working. We must focus on the work we are doing. If we do not focus, our work, will be a mess, not timely, and you have to waste time in vain.

I know what you mean, FB can be distracting with everything else going on. Do you play any of the games on there? I finally quit them a while ago and I feel so much freer now that I don't have to worry about watering crops, etc. I just played Bejeweled Blitz a few times with a friend there though. First time in a long time I have played a game there.

I am the same way, when I am working online at home I always get distracted by social network sites such as facebook and can't seem to concentrate on my work. There are a few companies that block social network websites in their offices so that employees don't waste their time there and are more productive at work. I really have to force myself to concentrate on working rather than wasting time on facebook ...

it's up to u. i think u are esay to be affected by outside factors. this is not good. in life, u will meet a lot of situations that u have to face with many problems at the same time. this can be a useful method to help u practise strong mind.
