I am always online and watching television and playing online or working on things at the same time. Do you find yourself doing something online and having the tv or radio on at the same time? I seem to find it easier to have a slight distraction to i can complete a task online. I can't seem to be able to do a task that takes a long time without having a bit of a break. It's more efficient for me to get things done if I can have a few mins break then crack on.

Well I do that once in while when there are special shows on TV that I need not miss but in most cases I don't because honestly I need concentration when I do mylot. I would admit that it is hard to watch TV and answer discussion so that I would oftentimes just let the computer on while watching TV or the other way around. So I normally just do one thing either watch TV or do mylot. I also can't tolerate radio when I am online.

Yes distractions do refresh minds but surely I cannot be happy being distracted from time to time hehehe! It is because if distracted that means I will not be able to earn as much as I could. Like today, I can't tolerate any distractions because of the quadruple earnings. Each tick of the clock is important to all mylotters till Saturday as far as posting is concerned.[em]niceday

I am watching television right now while I am mylotting.Sometimes it sparks a new interest while i am doing two things at the same time. Sometimes if I doi get too involved with the television i have to leave the omputer for a while.

That's the great thing about having the tv on... Can inspire you to add new posts, or give you the break you need from staring at the screen up close lol

It has been a habit of mine to turn on the TV while using the computer in general. I use the TV to have some background music I guess, so that it's not so quite inside the room. Usually I am alone in the room and it's too quiet at times that's why I turn on the tv. and like you I need breaks as well so when I need a break, I check if their something good to watch. But I waste plenty of electricity this way :D

Thanx for your responce.. I find it too quiet for me at times so have to have something on in the background. All be it radio or tv. Also having munchies and drinks around too can be a distraction.. Or they are still untouched after a few ours of MyLotting lol

No. I don't really like the TV shows nowadays but even it has shows that interests me I'll only prefer to do one thing to focus. Music player is enough for me while posting a comment on a discussion here at mylot or creating one.

Yup i have my lifetime channel on and mylotting at the same time. The only time i can't have a tv on is when I'm reading because then it distracts me from what book I am reading. But half the time i'm on the internet my tv is always on. But if there's nothing good on tv then yea i'll turn the radio on. I like a little distraction as well.

I do this as well so that I may stay on track with my myLotting. Very seldom, I am watching TV and posting here or I may take a food or water break so that I can clear my mind and then return to expressing my opinion. It's always helpful to be exposed to at least something other than myLot for a long period of time or you'll just go crazy from continuously posting replies and doing tasks.

Thanx for your responce.. I often find i can be so into somethng online that my hips and legs will ache.. So regular breaks and a walkround to get food, drink or go loo helps with thtand kicks the body to gear again from hours sat in one place.

That's funny I'm multi-tasking like this right now. Kids are watching TV and I'm kind of watching right along with them while I throw out my two cents worth here on the Lot.
