Regaining Focus : The 6 Step System

Let's see if the following scenario sounds familiar to you. You're working on a project, and you get distracted. You brush off this distraction as a one-time deal, and you keep working. Minutes later, you're distracted again. You shift over to another project, you get a phone call, and you remember you need to check some emails. Later on in the day, you realize you never got around to the first project you were working on.

You could chalk it up to distractions. We live in a digital world, and we've become activity addicts. If we don't have our full attention on something, the outcome won't be whole either. That could mean work, relationships, friendships, or health.

In order to give something your all, you need to prioritize your focus.

What do we mean by focus?

Focus is defined as the center of interest or activity. So, if you're working on something and you're not putting it at the center of your interest or activity, you're not giving it your all. You're placing it in a chain of orbiting priorities, and rather than giving it your 100%, you're splitting up its importance with other revolving tasks.

Multi-tasking can be great. Some even claim it is sometimes necessary. However, multi-tasking still requires focus. It doesn't matter if you want to live life as a multi-tasker or a single-tasker. Either way, if you're going to get stuff done, you have to learn how to focus on the task at hand and refrain from distractions that break the focus.

This might sound like a lot, but hey, you're focusing on it, right? The key is to follow a set of steps to have a process in place that garners attention and focus and keeps you on track for the moments when you might get sidetracked.

We'll take you through a six-step process on how to stay focused. As you read along, take note of how often you find your mind wandering. That's okay it happens. And it's natural! But use this as a time to get a grasp of how your mind works. We'll tap into that later on in this eBook.

Ready to focus? Let's go!
