Chapter 1: Step 1 – Avoid Distraction

If distractions are the major problem in your path to be more focused, worry not because, in this chapter, I am going to give you some tips with which you can start avoiding distractions and stay focused.

When you start a day, it might seem that you have plenty of time in your hand to get your work done but as the day approaches an end you find that almost everything is still left to be completed. Does this sound familiar? If this is the case with you too, then what you are dealing with are distractions that are not allowing you clarity of thinking. So, here are some suggestions that can help you avoid these distractions.

Always Keep Your Goals in Mind

Having your goals and your vision in your mind can do wonders to improve your levels of work concentration. You have to ask yourself why you want to stay focused. What is it that drives you so much that you want yourself to become more focused? Whatever your answer is that will be your goal or vision that you have. Having a clear idea of what you want and why you are doing this will help you stay focused. Accomplishing your goals can be a tedious task but having your goal in your mind at all times will definitely help you to push yourself even when the times are hard.

When you have a clear vision, you will automatically try your best to find the road on which you should walk. Moreover, even if you start walking on a different path, your goals will bring you on the right track. Your vision in life should be something that inspires you and keeps you going. If you are finding it difficult to figure it out, write down your goals and describe it with every detail that comes to your mind. When you have divided your goal into small parts that are achievable, you become even more motivated to accomplish it and this boosts your focus directly.

When you don’t have a clear vision or goal, it is very easy for your mind to wander off the tracks. But in the presence of a proper vision, even setbacks or challenges along the way cannot stop you from going. When your vision is powerful, you will automatically have a passion for moving towards it and it will inspire you to remain focused.
