Can that feeling carry over to my work? Do you ever work funny?
Ever have a day when none of the things you need to focus on materialize, when you struggle to come up with the ideas and flow that normally come naturally?
Most of us have come up with a strategy for days we're working funny--we do the busy work, we reply, react and occasionally respond. We show up at the meetings and we answer our email, and we go home feeling as though we accomplished at least a little something (though we didn't.)
Basically, we go through the motions.
The danger is this: this working funny habit leaks into the days when we're on our game. When you're on a roll, you still find yourself going to meetings, answering email and working through someone else's to-do list. That is not how you should be spending your "on time".

Don't toss and turn if you don't have to. Get focused and get in the zone.
