Interruptions

 How well would you sleep if you were woken every hour?

I think you'd go nutty.

I'm finding the same seems to occur during the day as you perform tasks.

You want to feel Zen? Just like a Yogi seeks through meditation?

Get in to a task and get rid of all possible distractions.

Have a baby? Well that is your task, so I'd minimise other distractions while that's happening.

If there is a big plan to dum us down so we become willing and unknowing puppets of our masters, then I think the interruptions from our devices will achieve that.

It becomes habitual. Even though you may have a whole two days of nothing to do but what you want... you probably won't sustain it out of habit of interruption and will cause the interruption yourself by not persisting with your original task.

What good are realisations unless acted upon?

I think I'll act on this one.

Next interruption I get, I'll work on how to stop it from happening again and how I can consolidate notifications to a view all when it suits me and I've actually dedicated the time to look them over all at once.

Hoping on your sanity and growing intelligence,
