Distraction

I've been entertained watching emails from Linkedin pop up, announcing all the people viewing my profile, and as the organizations are shown on Linkedin, it turns out that it’s a previous employer checking up on me. 

Although I have no qualms about people finding out about what I’m up to, I’m always surprised that people spend so much time and energy following the activities of prior associates.

Apparently, there is not enough other work to do in a day.

Endless social feeds, gossip, and the insatiable curiosity about other people’s lives, provides unlimited opportunities to tempt us away from our own mission and purpose.

Distraction is easy. Focus is hard.

Tend your own garden.

• Now that’s peak ethos.
