34. Improved Concentration

I think my concentration levels are actually improving (I’m drifting off much less – I think that’s because it’s finally sunk in just how much work I have to do). I only noticed this when I had to decipher the information on my phone bill. Are they ever straight forward? I went through it one line at a time, and it made sense! I felt so proud.

I’m not sure whether this is because of all the exercise I’m getting – at least 90 minutes’ walk a day – or because of all the reading I’ve done lately – (I’m reading over six hours a day, learning Internet Marketing and reading ebooks and hard books).

Or could it be because my attitude towards reading has changed?

Previously, I’d have looked at the phone bill, and thought “I can’t understand it” and phoned the phone company up for them to explain it. Ironic eh? Not really – the number has always been free. But not now: I’ve changed from BT to NTL and the customer service number is not free. Aha! The real reason for my new found concentration!

I’ve completely given up TV. I’d throw it out, but I need it for my exercise videos. I don’t think my friends believe me, but Jim Edwards is right to call it the ‘idiot box’ – and it’s such a massive thief of time.

Do yourself a favour – sell your telly! - Stick it on Ebay and teach the kids origami or something. Then write an ebook about it!


You know it makes sense.
