Do you sometimes feel as though your current task is the very
last thing you actually want to be doing?
Do you put off necessary tasks for something that’s less important, but
more interesting or amusing?
Getting focus and maintaining focus is a difficult task for many people.
Each of us have busy lives and in this world there are constant distractions,
so how can we stay focused and accomplish our goals?Here are 5 tips that will help you stay focused:
1.Write a daily to
do list and plan your day:There’s
nothing like a task list sitting next you to keep you focused.When you have a list of the things you
need to accomplish in a day, having a to-do list to remind you what needs to be
done will help you stay focused and be more effective.
2.Commit and
recommit your goal:Committing to your goals is a commitment to your self and to taking
yourself to the next level. Refer to your goals often. Everything you do should
be measured against your goals and making sure you are committing to them.
3.Clear all unnecessary distractions:a big source of stagnation is what we
do in our daily lives.If you want
to stay focused on achieving your dreams, you need to point out everything in
your life that is distracting you from that.
4.Avoid
interruptions:In a busy work place, people are moving and talking all the time.If you play a role in a team where
others need to interact with you, try allocating a time slot they can interrupt
you.
5. Create new habits:when you want to move from a habit that
you know is stagnating you, to one that is beneficial and empowering, the best
way is to stick with it for at least 10 days.
