Excuse vs. obstacle

I'm writing this post in my uncle's living room. We are three people working here. It is the most distracted writing session I had this year. Instead of writing I, among others, talked about what're going to eat for breakfast, planned a train ride for next weekend, created an account for my brother in my cloud, uploaded pictures he made to it, ate breakfast, and showed him rms.sexy. This isn't a reason to stop writing. If you don't want to do something, it's easy to distract yourself. You can always find excuses. But once you commit to something, all excuses simply become obstacles to overcome.

The Wifi on my Thinkpad isn't working and to upload the images I have to connect it to the router, which means I can't properly wrote on it. Write on my work Macbook instead.

I'm usually stopping the clock to write for at least one hour without a break. I don't have the quiet to do that today. Just write without the timer, when- and however possible.

But everybody's talking. Put on noise canceling headphones and keep writing.

Usually, I'm reading what I wrote out loud. Doing this is uncomfortable if other people are around. Go to another room for this. To the bathroom, if necessary.

Yes, I was less focused on writing and it took me longer than usual. And the post could have been better under different circumstances. But these were the circumstances I had. And I still got it done.
It's ok to not do something. But don't use excuses. Own the decision. Say "I'm not going to do it". Don't say "I really want to do it but I can't because of X". That's not true. Stop lying to yourself.
