Counter-Distraction.

In this age of information, or age of distraction, ones very hard to focus on finishing something essential. More of our time we try to consume every new information that we get in, let say every secs. That's mean every secs we got distracted by new information, gossip, news, new gadget and many more. And we have been flushed far away from our main focus, life and doing something meaningful to achieve life's goal.

Its including me, I once been stuck hours at facebook, i'm feeling the needs to be the first to know, fear that i cant keep up to date with my friends. But now im struggling to get out from that, and start be present, connect with people surrounding me, not every single person in the world.

Im try to focus for one things only at one time. Limit my task list. Stop multi tasking. I'm in progress of simplify my life. Before this i'm always stuck in tutorial blog, read one after one another, but never really follow the tutorial. Read design blog, from comic to countless of inspired articles, its get me inspired to do work, but not to get it done. Now i'm discipline myself just to read couple of articles one day. So that i will read less but take action, and connect with surrounding.
