Schade, dass mir dieser Artikel nicht schon früher untergekommen ist. Mathew Stibbe, Journalist aus Amerika, schreibt über How to concentrate on writing:

“1. Switch off email. I don’t start Outlook (or if I do, I disable all the notifications that tell me I have new mail).
2. Isolate myself. I use Bose noise-canceling headphones but don’t plug them into anything. The silence really is golden. (…)
4. Stop with the blog already. When I’m pressed for time, distractions like blogging and hoovering become very compelling. Knowing this makes it easier to resist. (…)
10. Change location. Sometimes, if I’m really struggling to get started, taking a laptop or my notebook to a cafe and scribbling out something there - a fresh new location - is a good way to jolt-start an assignment.”

Für´s nächste Mal dann.
