in reply to Maintaining one's focus while working (alpha/beta/delta brain waves)

This is a highly YMMV topic!

Personally if go for classical or Jazz, phone on 'busy', email shut down, pager off, cell phone powered down, and loads of caffine and nicotine.

This, however, is a utopia unattainable in normal user space. So, I like to bemuse my coworkers by sitting zazen in my cube. I trained my manager to turn and walk the other way when I assume this state. He knows things reached a critical mass and his best tack is active avoidance.

Customers don't get it though. What's up with that? HTH
