Limiting distractions enhances creativity.

Stephen King advised against television in his memoir On WritingTelevision has its way of sucking us in. Shows are designed for that purpose. Social Media, and the internet in general, has also risen as a destruction from our work.

If we are going to consume entertainment, it should be through reading. After all, if you want to be an author of fiction, time spend reading is just as valuable as time spent writing.

Our mental bandwidth is limited.

Every day offers new opportunities.
