Can Noise Cancelling headphones knock out people speaking, announcements, etc? I think a link to a detailed discussion of how noise canceling headphones deal with ambient conversations work would be helpful as I've also read that some (Bose specifically IIRC) are specifically designed to not, or less significantly attenuate noise in the frequencies of typical human speech for safety and situational awareness reasons. |

Advantages of disconnected time Completely anecdotal, but the Verge sponsored someone to spend a year unplugged from the internet. He's back and wrote an essay on the experience. |

Getting rid of an “I'll do it later” habit This question, as posed, is too broad to really have any effective answers. It appears what's being asked is a very general question about time management, procrastination, and how to be more productive during working hours so that you don't have to stay late. These themes have been the topic of at least dozens of books--and as a general rule if a question is so broad that it could serve as the topic for a book it's too broad to be a question on Stack Exchange. If you have a more specific question that could yield a narrower answer we'd love to have it. |

The rules or training: how to behave in open space? Answers that provide references to external material can be helpful, but because links can break and because many people who find this answer may not follow them it would be helpful to expand on this answer with a synopsis of the links. Just enough for a reader to be interested enough to follow them. |

How to avoid my Laziness Welcome to the site! I've closed this question as being too broad to really be answerable by the site's Q&A format. The list of things you're asking for help on is very broad. It's really a list of symptoms and not much information about any underlying issues. |

What should I do with emails that contain information that I often refer back to? This is too narrow of a recommendation to be a good general answer to your question, but for things like log-on information I store things in 1Password, although there are similar apps for secure storage of log-on information. Most should also allow a free notes field where you could paste unique instructions. |

At google, is the work always creative? This is more a question about Google corporate culture and not really personal productivity. |
