What Is In Your Background Thoughts?
Strange question but I’m interested in what you do while working your online magic. What gets you in the right frame of mind. Is it music? Watching TV? Oh, you’re so bad! LOL
I’m guilty of both but lately I’m trying to get back into an ‘all business‘ environment. Today we have a lot more distraction then we did just a few short years ago. It use to be the phone every now or then and perhaps a family member needing your attention. Now we have things like cell phones, text messages, email alerts, instant messengers, Twitter and Skype just to name a few. Toss in a cool program like House or a great album playing in the background and we’re soon in desperate need of hair transplants.
Ok, the best solution is quiet. Shut everything off and get to work. That might work for some but I need those little distractions mentioned above, I don’t care about my hair falling. It can’t get any grayer! What I can do is regulate them a little. As cool as Dr. House is wouldn’t it be better to fill my head with a little Seth Godin or Robert Kiyosaki? What about a teleseminar we may have missed? I’m a big fan of YouTube and most of these videos can be played behind your work while listening to the audio portion. I use a laptop next to my desktop for audio and video learning.

Hey Brian,
I can not listen to an audio that is detailed while working. I get to involved and then I may end up posting a mix of my intended topic and whatever I am listening to.
I do however have music on or even the TV. Just can not wear a head set or it invades my brain to much.
Mostly the music or TV is to keep the dog from hearing all the outside noise and barking in my ears. LOL!
As for House – oh, stop everything or you may miss one of his snide remarks.
