I focus best amidst distractions. It might be because I grew up on trading desks, it might be because I was built with a hyperactive mind and a restless spirit, and it might be because I drink too much coffee. For whatever reason, while most focus best in quiet solitude, I do my best work behind blinking screens, loud music, constant interruptions, and blasts of energy.
Always worth reading your posts--entertaining, interesting, defined, cogent.
