How would that help?

  Better understanding of self (emotional/motivational factors). Loneliness would turn into solitudeness. Better attention span.

    Please stop with the trolling if you can't actually understand the problem. Meditation doesn't solve every problem in life.

      It doesn't, it's not a silver bullet but it can help a lot. And my answer was based on my experience (with some variables similar to OP such as working alone on multiple web projects (unfinished), INTP/introvert etc). BTW, based on the fact that your account is ~few hours old, I think you might be the one trolling[1] (or meta-trolling, more accurately) here :-) [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)

      OP suffers from an inability to focus on a task over long periods of time. This is exactly the type of problem meditation adresses fairly well.

    I think I have a fairly good understanding of self (I don't meditate.) I'm INFP and fairly introverted and inward-looking. I don't generally feel lonely, but small attention-span is definitely a problem I face (with the symptoms being the same as OP's).

      First step: make sure you're getting enough sleep. Try getting 8 hours a night for a couple of weeks and see if it helps. After that, make sure you don't have any sleep disorders like sleep apnea that are reducing the quality of your sleep.
