Good relevant content. I agree to focus and at the right time is key. I tend to focus great when I have a big project and a deadline. When I have smaller projects I tend to easily procrastinate.

I became an editor because I love editing but also because I'm a loner introvert that prefers to work alone, the networking thing is a no no for me.
