I've got quite a lot of distractibility, but my office mate really does. He got connected with the work of Edward Hallowell, specifically "Driven to Distraction" ( http://www.amazon.com/isbn/dp/0684801280 http://www.amazon.com/isbn/dp/0684801280 ) and has since had his doc get him on ritalin. It's just been a few weeks, but he seems a lot more focused to me. It's making me wonder if I need to talk to a doc about trying me on one of those meds. Doesn't seem like it's much of a risk, does it? [I've struggled mightily to force myself to focus - to no avail - and know that I could be way more productive if the mind would obey better :/ ]
