Seth's Blog: The first thing you do when you sit down at the computer
The first thing you do when you sit down at the computer

Let me guess: check the incoming. Check email or traffic stats or messages from your boss. Check the tweets you follow or the FB status of friends.

You've just surrendered not only a block of time but your freshest, best chance to start something new.

If you're a tech company or a marketer, your goal is to be the first thing people do when they start their day. If you're an artist, a leader or someone seeking to make a difference, the first thing you do should be to lay tracks to accomplish your goals, not to hear how others have reacted/responded/insisted to what happened yesterday.

How to Become More Successful
Objectively speaking, successful people flock together. You really don’t see highly successful people all by themselves, surrounded by those who have a negative attitude towards success. The movers and shakers in any field tend to be friends and often hang out together.

Hard Work and Practice in Programming - O'Reilly Radar
I once saw a show on new learning techniques. They took a first or second grade music class and told the students they were going to play them a song and that they should come up with a way of remembering the tune. Each of the children came up with a different method mostly using crayons and construction paper. They created different ways to designate the notes and loudness and spaced things to indicate the timing, etc. Then they showed each student how the method they came up with mapped to sheet music. According to the program I was watching this was really effective in teaching children how to read sheet music
