I Know How To Focus But Do I Know How To Handle Distraction?

Hey there…

If you’ve been following my previous post, I shared with you a thing or two about what keeps me on my foot currently, or should I say, what I’m focusing on now.

I did also share the source of my focus inspiration.

Then I realize a universal fact, that many knows what to do BUT not many knows what to do about things that keep them away from doing (you might want to reread this…I did :)

In other simpler words; how to handle distraction.

I assume you already know how to focus (read this guide if you don’t). Now let me share with you ways to stay focus by avoiding distractions.

Handling distraction #1: Have a clear focus point.

Now, I’ve shared one thing I’m focusing on. And that would be the first thing I recommend you to have to avoid distraction. Have a clear focus point. The keyword here is clear. A vague focus point won’t help you at all.

Handling distraction #2: Have a reminder.

To keep you on track, a reminder proves to be very useful. It could be as simple as a piece of stick on pad on your computer monitor or it could be a bit techno like a multimedia hand-phone reminder. It’s up to you.

As long as you can keep yourself on track, that would do.

Handling distraction #3: Have supporting partners.

This to me was the hardest part to get done with simply because I like to work alone but with all the communication channel available, I can get a partner who send me emails, SMS, etc. and remind me of my current project.

They do keep me on track.

There you go. 3 simple things I highly recommend you to have to avoid distraction. I do recommend them because I’m having them myself.

Otherwise, I won’t share.

Hope this help :)

    Hello Guru, what entice you to post an article. This article was extremely interesting, especially since I was searching for thoughts on this subject last Thursday.

    Really?! Unlucky for you I’m NOT a Guru – not want to and not inspire to be one. I just want to keep things down to earth and I do that by being me…
