[from a my recent post - Go Pavlov Yourself]

This is my new technique to jumpstart the creating and coding during a long arduous day. There is a sound, a bell, provided by an iPhone app. I am using this bell to condition myself. Since we are humans and humans are evolutionarily based, we can be conditioned just like the dog in Pavlov's lab. We have willpower and self-control, but many times that innate power cannot be wielded to avoid distractions. Therefore, let's use conditioning to reduce the conscious decision and provide a signal that the mind can follow without significant effort. Ding!

Ding. I sit down, close out all browser tabs. Open sublime, a blank Chrome page, iterm2 and the requirements doc. Deep breath and go!

Now, practice ten times.
