Segment intending and presence
http://youtu.be/FgcTSK5DVOM
Yes, I've been given a ridiculous work deadline that I keep complaining about. But I must admit that I'm the one to blame for work periods where I drift off and basically waste time. Segment intending is about chopping of your day into a segment of time, and intending to actually get your task done in the time period. Presence is what you need more of to actually pull it off, instead of wander off. I practised my presence this morning by cleaning and cooking in my usually messy kitchen without music or self-help in the background like I usually do, and while fighting off temptations to think about work. As a result, I actually noticed me being neater and quicker than usual. It looks like something that's worth repeating.
