You know to stay away, far away, from the people who would distract you when you're wearing big clunky headphones.

If you are reeeally distractible you may have attention deficit syndrome. I tried Ritalin & Strattera, and they had bad side effects, and apparently others have had even worse side effects. Recently I discovered Vaxa Attend. It is the only thing that has helped me. It is pricey, but since it is homeopathic, after awhile you can start tapering off and still be helped. Also colloidal gold is helpful. As Dr. M. says, going organic and limiting sugar, getting the right supplements etc. (watch out for soy and corn anywhere) are also essential. For example get some of his chlorella to help get rid of mercury toxicity which interferes with brain function. Also magnesium is crucial, along with fish oil (I don't do krill as I eat "kosher".) Just some thoughts and hope they help someone out there.

Hi: This is the first time using this as I'm not computer savvy but I enjoy reading the comments. I just check e-mail twice a day and also use headphones as this works really well because I'm easily distracted. Turning the phone to vibrate is a good idea for limiting disruptions. I'd like to incorporate all of these suggestions while working at home. I don't drive but take the bus so i've been looking for work to do at home but there are so many scams. Does anyone have a suggestion for something I can do at home? MJ

RE the "early bird" tip: I do love the early morning hours, and I agree there are far fewer distractions. But I would hate to use those at the office. (If I worked at an office, that is.) I love that time for prayer, meditation, and simply connecting with Jesus. If you can manage to go to bed earlier and get up earlier, I'd suggest using that time for "alone" time, in whatever form helps you most. Though it might not cut down on distractions once you get to work, I'm convinced it will give you a tranquility, creativity, and inner strength that will serve you even better in all aspects of your life, including your work.

Good idea... except that I have to have emails popping up constantly as part of my job, since a lot of what I do requires input from remote sources.

My main problem is some of my co-workers... some of them really really really really really really really loud and annoying!

I have been doing the headphones thing in the office for about one year and it works very well.

Hello, WellnessMom!....You sure have that right! Many people think that since you're at home (they seem to forget we're WORKING), that you have endless hours to play, nap,, and watch "soaps", while eating bon-bons! Thanks Doc, I WILL implement these great suggestions. :-) :-)

BTW, to OssieA1...Greetings, and I must say,.I agree! (about the "second post/comment"), I agree! It beared repeating! :-)

A Great Day to ALL,

I like this site, but do not like the annoying pop ups. How can I get rid of them?

This is some great advice, especially when one works from home. Talk about distractions!
