Yeah, I do agree on this. Sometimes, your circle of friends and having procrastination can stop you from achieving your goals.

Distraction and discouragement are fatal to productivity. This is valid given that to be productive, one must be able to focus; as a result, anything that dissuades one from this hinders and weakens willpower. Discouragement can take many different forms, such as negative comments from others and a loss of confidence in one's actions.

The production killers are discouragement and distraction. This is valid given the fact that in order to be productive, you must be able to focus. Distractions demotivate people and weaken their will, so they are less likely to be successful. There are several ways to feel discouraged, including hearing negative comments from others and losing faith in one's own actions.

Distraction is an enemy to Attraction. When you are distracted or redirected, the energy to do something productive is being mismanaged and interrupted.

Another thought I had on the matter is the importance of a good mindset. When one is continuously discouraged by his surroundings or events that happen it will be impossible for him or her to progress. One has to develop an attitude of positive thinking so as to always remain optimistic and hopeful about his or her future thus leading to greater focus and more productivity.

I agree. Time is same for all things. I time I take to focus on distraction is the same time I take away from production which could bring discouragement.
