It is so easy to get distracted these days. Here’s what I’ve been getting distracted by in the last hour of writing:

• My phone — somehow I ended up on Twitter
• My dock — I keep checking for a red text message icon
• The music
• A fly was buzzing around and really threw me off
• My own writing – just going back and reading what I had written was counterproductive
• My phone, again — I went to look something up and then checked Instagram for 10 minutes
• My dock, again — no messages, because I’ve deliberately turned off wifi. To stop myself from being distracted
