Like most people I hate sitting in traffic jams at the best of times and the coast road, between where I live and Brighton, is notorious for doubling the time of your journey at peak time, so knowing that the network meeting I was attending was due to finish just as the after work rush hour started, I took my laptop with me.
Instead of getting frustrated sitting in traffic, I went down to the Marina, plugged in, powered up and sat working for a couple of hours. Not only a quieter, less distracting space but I cleared a batch of updating that I'd been putting off for a while as a lower priority task and then only took twenty minutes to get back home once the traffic had cleared.
Think about better ways to use your time with a little forward planning.
