Beginning

Beginning or actually starting something is hard for me to do. I need to psych myself up for it. Its's not that I won't try, I totally will, I just get distracted along the way or I think I deserve a break because I opened the page. Me sitting down to write this is an example, I opened this page twenty minutes ago, twenty minutes before I actually started writing. I even had the intention of writing this right away, but I got distracted. What distracts me most when I'm trying to work on my computer at home are those little icons on top of the browser, you know, the icons of the websites you  favorited. I think to myself , I'll look for a second to see whats going on then I'll come right back to work. Them I look at the clock after what I think has been five minutes and in reality it's been five hours. When I'm offline I get distracted as well. It's harder for me to get distracted when I'm not on the computer because there is less I can do. What I mostly get distracted by are my sisters and pets.
Getting over the distractions and actually starting what I have to can be easy or difficult, it really depends on the day. Most days I can force myself to get the work done and once I get in the zone I'm good. Other days when my attention span isn't up to par I will still get distracted after I start and will have to keep going back to the project. For me it's really a matter of keeping the distractions out of my way while I'm trying to work.
