We all need to focus more. Did you know you can pay attention to only about 7 things at a time? Make sure you prioritize on important things so that you can finish your tasks. Eliminate distractions that interrupt your flow. Small things like unexpected noise, like voice calls or IM messengers that are always online can pop up and distract you. Make sure to turn off internet messengers, e-mail, even your cellphone volume can be put aside so that you can concentrate at the task at hand.
Too much multi-tasking disrupts your efficiency. Focusing on improving your attention span is important in completing everyday tasks. Practice focusing on finishing faster and better with each task that you do. Just like exercise it takes consistent practice to build up your attention span, persistent repetition of these small improvements can build a habit and extend your focus. Here's what I do...
Be great, do good, have fun!
Having fun while making the world a better place to live.

Turn your phone into an Android
Time for an upgrade?
What kind of phone do you have now? Maybe you even have 2 cell phones, one is a spare phone for using with another telecommunications network or for talking to people you label “unlimited”. Perhaps you still have a trusty monochromatic phone that is very reliable but so worn, torn and old that it is in dire need of a “retirement”.
It could be time to consider getting a breath of fresh technology and take a peek at some lively new colorful touchscreen cell phones that have multiple uses; such as your unending media player, digital videocamera for social sharing on facebook, break-time entertainment gaming device, office voice recorder for reviewing gossip, and the ever dependable but annoying alarm clock, all-in-one.
There are more features packed in the newest line of phones available now than in your locker or briefcase, man-bag or purse. With so many newfangled tech features to choose from, sometimes it may seem overwhelming. Let’s get those things sorted out.
Well you have several options out there to consider, there’s the tried and tested Nokia lineup of phones. Then again there’s the always stylish Apple brand of iPhones to think about, or the Blackberry brand for the pushy E-mail anytime fans, and the busy bee business savvy. I've read good reviews for

I just made my first Android application using Google App Inventor.
Well that's because the programming language software was built with kids in mind.
The interface uses objects and graphics that remind me of Lego building blocks and jigsaw puzzle pieces, it has some advanced capabilities to play around with. I've finished the 2 tutorial applications that Google had prepared to familiarize myself with the basics.
So far it's fun, and very intuitive. I like the way code is represented visually and I believe all types of users will be able to make their own Android Apps when it is fully released to the general public.

Google invests in new search software that predicts the future
Yes the future is now predictable! Google invested in a company called Recorded Future that has "Temporal Analytics" software. And it looks like the future of search engines is now here. The people at Recorded Future and their software can help predict the future by looking at vast information from the internet and free data from the past to analyze specific points in time that can assist us in important time-based decision making. This can be very profitable in financial forecasting, it can also help with security in terrorism, following safety in weather tracking and in following political timelines that even the CIA uses.Their blog is very interesting, it takes samples of trends in search topics like company IPO's for managing risk in wealth building for the finance industry. While hot topics like wars can also be used for tracing events leading to terrorist attacks. In newspapers like USA Today or the Wall Street Journal, you can track interesting topics or breaking news stories and see all the history leading to that even and see where it is all heading.
