A Challenging Circumstance

Some major challenges have arisen in this whole quest to be more productive. Things like a 52" television, Modern Family through Rogers on Demand, the end to Oprah's talk show, Hoarders, Two and a Half Men (that seems to be on every half hour from 4:00 pm to midnight), and the list goes on.

If you've ever seen my place, you'll understand that sitting on the couch only forces you to stare at a large television screen that's roughly six feet away from the only two seats in the venue. With nothing playing, the big black screen calls to you like it needs life, it needs colour and it needs your attention to feel useful and important.

To prevent myself from getting distracted, I've taken the liberty of posting small reminders on the front of the television. My mantra to complete this nine weekday challenge.





Now, every time I go to turn on the television, I'm faced with the harsh reality of what I should be doing instead of wasting mindless hours starring into nothing. Don't worry though, I've still set aside an hour a day to catch Oprah (I mean really - this is legendary that she's ending her talk show).
