The first is not really an addiction -- it's more of a compulsion. I just HAVE TO open all those emails I get every day -- even though I know most of them will prove to be the usual worthless offers. The second thing is an addiction I've had for almost 5 years now -- solving Griddlers puzzles. They are both intellectually stimulating and relaxing at the same time.

It used to be a great way for us to progress because we kept each other focused on the task schedule. We multi-tasked efficiently - listened, talked, typed, evaluated, made decisions, swapped examples and mock ups back and forth etc...now it scrambles my mind, but I haven't yet broken the addiction, because my partner is just as addicted to that work style, and it continues to be the best method for her. Of course production is down at my end. Working on the phone with my partner. It used to be a great way for us to progress because we kept each other focused on the task schedule.

In order to be productive, I must decide before I sit down to work exactly what it is I want to accomplish and forget everything else. I did that yesterday and finished two articles that I had been avoiding. Today, I'm obviously checking my email!!!

I have so many domains that I purchased for cool ideas and then never developed because the idea was over my head or I just never got around to it. My new rule is that I can't buy a new .com domain until what I have is developed. I still buy .info's but those are mainly for affiliate redirects.
