Welcome to my blog, which is a direct product of the fact that my husband and I just canceled our satellite television and DVR service in an effort to spend more quality time together, complete with eye contact, and in order to accomplish more in general.
We’re entertainment junkies, so this has been a hard habit to break. It has been 2 weeks and the pain is only now lessening.
Now that the initial withdrawl has passed, I have found a new freedom to focus on other tasks. Thus, the blog.
I’m realizing the same type of distraction removal can be applied to just about any small business task.
Find that you’re missing major details by not being fully present on a conference call? Try shutting down your email, instant messaging and text messaging during that time.
Realizing that you’re having a hard time finishing a proposal, chapter in your book or email newsletter? Try shutting off your email and your telephones during that time.
Just as the absence of quality television has helped me focus in on more important things in a more meaningful and saturated way, the absence of the many, all to available distractions at your finger tips, can do wonders for your business.
Try it out. You’ll be amazed by what you might begin.
