Monday. Is it because today is Monday? Or am I really that bad at focusing on work. I'm a fledgling technical writer and it hasn't been a year yet since I started. I have always found a reason to procrastinate. Whenever I look at the software I'm currently working on, I lose all of my energy and begin to fall asleep.
I'd wonder if I have a sleeping disorder or perhaps a working disorder. I have problems doing my job but I find that when I minimize the window of what work I'm facing and switch to Facebook (or Blogger), Lo! And behold! I am alive again and firing away at the keyboard checking, on the most mundane details of everybody else's lives.
I wonder if this is the result of a super short attention span. Or perhaps it is the years I've spent working in a call center and the lack of sleep that has permanently damaged my brain cells, rendering me incapable of focusing on a task for more than an hour. Sheesh! During my call center days, I often complained about how unfulfillling the job is careerwise.They say once you've entered the call center, its going to be hard to shift to another industry. So I shifted careers and tried desperately to stay away from the call center life. I've gone in and out of it. Now I'm working on an industry closest to what my 6 years in college would be useful at and this should at least get me motivated enough to focus on my career advancement.
Unfortunately, I seem to be unable to focus. In fact I'd do just anything to take my attention away from what I'm supposed to finish--even blog about not wanting to work. I don't know which sucks more, working and not being happy about it, or not being happy about not finding work that you can be happy about. Oh what a dilemma! LOL. I find it funny that I'm bothered by such trivial problems like this when others have more serious problems than I, like finding a decent paying job.
