What is the greatest distraction for a hard working college student, and how to stay focused?
When their friends are partying and drinking with no real responsiblity and they feel as if they are not able to have fun because they have to keep on the up and up in order to continue to go to college.
Working to make money is the biggest distraction, especially when you see others who don't have to work. But prioritizing your time for homework and studying is the best way to stay ahead. No matter what I know that my education is more important.
The internet, hands down. Especially since as a college student, you have to spend a lot of time on the computer, often doing research etc and it's very easy to get distracted or bored after a while. It's every easy to get lost in research, too. Or, if you decide to take a break, and play a video game or go on Facebook etc and then all the sudden you wasted half a day.

I currently have a job at a restaurant making about $300 every two weeks but I'd like to find some other way to bring in a little extra money as well. Please don't mention HubPages, I'm already trying that lol. I don't care how 'out there' the idea is, please suggest. Thanks!
