On Disturbing One's Self

Just a few minutes ago, I listed all the school work I have to accomplish for the long weekend ahead. I don't know if it's just me but I have this propensity to make a list of things longer. Perhaps, school work is so numerous that I feel unmoved by the tasks ahead.

But sometimes, no matter how much you tell yourself that you are going to get things done, you end up goofing off and unable to accomplish anything. The root of this problem may probably be the lack of concentration or focus.

Any simple distraction can prevent you from doing your work well. Sometimes it's a headache, sometimes a flying cockroach, the sound of UAAP basketball on the TV, hunger pangs, brown-out. Just about anything and everything.

The only secret to remain focus is to sustain interest in what you do. Interests drives you with excellence effortlessly. When you are deeply interested with your work, it will no longer be work but a play.

I may be speaking from my experience but I know there are a couple of people out there who experiences the same thing.

Now, I have to find interest in studying because I need something to drive me.
