How To Stay On Track

                                                        "If you chase two rabbits,
                                                             BOTH will escape"

How do you stay on track?
By being able to learn focused concentration.

Don´t allow anything to capture your attention unless it is the best interest of the task at hand.
Concentration will keep out clutter, noise and other distraction that will keep you from completing your task.
Wherever you are....Be there!



Learn to concentrate on what you are suppose to be doing for the moment. You can´t be thinking of everything you need to be doing....all the time. It is exhausting and it will lead to burn out.
You must concentrate at just one thing at a time. A project, a job..... you must take it one task at a time until you complete it.

Can you imagine if you were a mountain climber and you lost your concentration for a second...you could fall and die. How about a tennis player... if they lost their concentration for a second or two....they might lose the game.

There is no such thing as multi-tasking...... it is called task-switching and it will only slow you down.
Your brain can only concentrate at one thing at a time. So do what you have set out to do. Keep your mind on that one task.

Why?
Because if you don´t, you won´t be able to accomplish anything.

It takes a lot of discipline to not answer the phone while you are in the middle of doing a task. Or checking your emails and social media. It will take a lot of discipline to keep the "do not disturb" sign up when you are working on a project.
Concentration takes a lot of discipline.

Concentrate on the work a hand and demand of yourself the discipline of staying focused.


Tip!
If you have a long list of things to do. Do the toughest thing, the one that will require a lot of concentration, do it when your concentration is at its peak.
If you are a morning person...do it in the morning.
If you are an afternoon person...do it in the afternoon.


Just remember when you are at ...WORK!

When you at home with family or with your friends...BE THERE!
