How do you deal with distractions?

“There’s a crack in everything, that’s how light gets in.” Leonard Cohen.

Something that helps me when I’m feeling distracted is to think about other distracted people and how they coped. One of my favorite writers is P.D. James and I’ve always been fascinated by her life, which seems full of distractions.

Congratulations,Cate!
