Yeah, I wonder how much of an up-tick in _Pinocchio_ related revenue Disney is
seeing thanks to JBP. Sadly it will only serve to remind them that there is
value into hanging onto dusty, ancient, copyright.

And, come to think of it, it's hard to imagine a better example of what JBP
calls "living off the body of your dead father" than Disney's modus operandi.

Working alone is sort of like having ADHD. When I'm grinding on something,
pomodoro is pretty useful. Really any kind of discipline works here.

It's not 10/10 though; for some kinds of tasks (math oriented ones) you need
to get into the zone; combinations of oversleep and undersleep seem to help
with this. Also blocking internets. I used to go to the Cal library (I don't
have wifi access there) to concentrate.

I would advise you start talking with a therapist who specializes in
mindfulness training. Meditition and mindfulness can help you learn how to
focus, while at the same time being less judgemental of yourself. I recently
did about 6 months of online chat therapy for my anxiety (which was hindering
my work productivity), and applying the mindfulness techniques that I learned
has been really good for my well being and productivity.

My theorie is that while we as humanity accepted the differences in human
pretty far so far we still expect a pretty standardised human in terms of work
environments.

However I think the trick is essentially to give up trying to act normal and
finding your own way. Something that fits your style of life.

Edit:// I am certain any doctor would agree its ADHD. However you'd still have
to question if amphetamines really present a final answer then.

I did struggle at work and since being laid off (after 33 years) I struggle as
a middle-aged guy at college too.

ADHD may be part of it for me but when I organize my tasks and hunker down I
do better. But I do see people who are amazing who seem to pick up new tasks
and complete them effortlessly.
