Tabula rasa / the power of concentration

Interesting chat with Robert today. We talked mostly about working out where my energy is career-wise (currently wondering about balancing philosophy and full-time publishing).

But our conversation also got me thinking about the power of focussing on a single goal. The prime example might be studying a single philosophical problem in the British Library, or devoting a large blank page to a design solution.

How often do I get such focus these days? Unfortunately my attention is more divided than concentrated most days. Will have try to find more ways of getting ‘clear desk, blank page’ time…

Anyone know some tricks for this?
