So this blog will be about some tips on how to stay focused and productive.
You do not need a massive game master plan for the day, what you need is a simple action plan. A plan that allows you to focus your undivided attention to 3 or 5 things you actually seriously need to accomplish during the day. It is all about the priorities, so work on a few things which are guaranteed to allow you to make the biggest and important impact.
If you intend to be a bit more productive and effective then you have to work according to a schedule. You have to give yourself a chance to focus completely. You have to do what needs to be done within a specific time frame. The good news is that you get to choose that time frame. So try getting into the habit of starting and finishing projects completely with a reasonable time period. This way you can easily move onto the next task with a fresh mind and a clear outlook.
If you want to be more effective, then you have to learn to slow things down a bit and be more attentive towards your approach to work and your life. Stop rushing around and give yourself enough time to gather all your wandering thoughts and put yourself in a powerful state of mind. And you will be in control of yourself at all times.
You can not be effective in any way if your mind and focus is constantly being distracted. Limit your distractions from what is actually important to you. Give yourself limited time slots throughout the day to check your social media or any kind of unnecessary distractions. A lack of focus is what actually kills your productivity and effectiveness.
Open your ears and listen rather than your mouth. If you learn to listen more effectively you will be able to identify the opportunities and challenges that are there in front of you. You can save a lot of time and stress by learning to listen and think before you respond thoughtfully.
The most important thing is to focus on what you actually can do rather than searching for excuses for not doing these things. Make informed decisions and find a way to move forward. Being effective means that you find a solution and try not dwell on the problem and what has already occured
