		ryandvm on Sept 24, 2012 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The Joy of Quiet My own personal version of this happens during my work day commute. No radio, no podcasts, no phone calls. I've found that unless I have about 30 minutes/day or so of thinking time, I tend to lose focus on my longer term projects.
