Other interruptions can be controlled. For example, you need a plumber to fix sink and have a friend that wants to see your hydrangeas. Schedule them both for same afternoon, i.e., group things into specific time slots if possible and then plan activities for that time that are not sensitive to interruptions.

Another consideration: don't schedule them for time of day that is your best "thinking" time. For example, I am at my best in morning so, when I have a choice, I avoid scheduling things in morning. That way, interruptions don't disturb me when I'm at my best.

Are kids or spouses walking in and asking you mundane questions that could have waited? Have a signal that means "DO NOT BOTHER ME UNLESS SOMETHING IS BURNING OR BLEEDING". It could be as simple as closing your office door. Or, you could turn on a specific light or lamp that would mean same thing. How about a "Do Not Disturb" door hanger similar to those in a hotel? Make it a strict rule and enforce it: they will get idea. Eventually.

We have just scratched surface, but this beast can be tamed with a little thought and creativity.

So, how does one become wealthy in today’s economic environment? Well you can stop what you are doing for a living, go back to school and become a Doctor, Dentist or Lawyer and in five or ten years achieve some type of personal wealth. Not practical you say? Well, you are correct in that my friend. What you need to do then is invent or develop some fantastic product or service which everyone needs, build it yourself or find a manufacturer, sell product or service and make your millions. Not practical you say? Well again your are correct.

I can go on and on like this forever and answers would be same. Not practical. So what can we do to fulfill Dream of wealth? If you watch television I am sure you have seen those paid commercials involving this or that system developed by individuals designed to become wealthy through real estate investments and like. Hey, they are great and are just fine for those of us who can raise necessary money to work system. They are not for everyone that is for sure. What we need to find is a money generating system we can afford and work on in hours available to us without quitting our job or ignoring our families.

The Internet is perfect for us in this regard. Almost everyone can get and learn to use a computer and attain a skill level enabling them to work or participate in an online business.

Can you become wealthy working an online business? You bet your life you can. Is it easy? No it is not, but it has been and is being done as we talk. Can you earn a million dollars in a year? I doubt it but you can earn $100,000 in a year with proper program and lots of help and hard work. Being realistic, we all know that just wanting to be a millionaire is a pipe dream unless we can visualize how to go about it. Let’s lower our sights a bit and say we wish to become financially independent. Just what does that mean to you? What is financial independence? What specific conditions should exist to make you financially independent?

Think about that for a bit.

Financial independence occurs when a person has gained resources to actually afford to do things they wish without dependence on outside sources or employment to achieve their goals and aspirations, whatever they may be. I did not identify what those aspirations may be. That is a personal thing and up to each individual to identify and pursue. This is where Dream comes in. What is it you really wish to accomplish? When you can identify specific content of your Dream you can then think about finding ways to achieve it.

It does not matter whether or not Dream is large or small, what really matters is that you have it. Then you must realize that wishing does not make Dreams come true; hard work and time makes Dreams come true. If you are willing to Dream and be dedicated to doing things you must to make dream come true, you will succeed. As mentioned previously, an online business is a viable way to gain financial independence. Solidify your Dream and seriously look into rewards to be gained through participating in or running your own online business today. Take time to search and research, ask questions, learn what it takes and go to it. You can succeed if you are patient and willing to work as hard as necessary to realize your Dream.
