What Does It Take To Get Focus?

Can Focus Change By Business?

In our last blog post, we discussed how mindset and purpose was essential to business success. We looked at how mindset is related to fears and how those fears could hold us back from our success.

Today we are going to look at another important part of mindset and purpose.  Focus.

What is focus?
Focus is about putting time into things that matter. It is about ignoring distractions and being laser focused. That is easier said than done, of course. We have become used to having distractions everywhere. They are part of who we are and who we are becoming.

It is easy to get distracted. We can have emails, social media, deadlines, partners, children, hobbies, work...the list goes on.

We can easily get distracted because we put the wrong priorities to things. We may feel that something is more important than it really is. We may not actually know what it is that we really want.

When I get focus, I enjoy it. I enjoy knowing that I am 100% focused on the task at hand. I am not checking my email or chatting on social media. I am not thinking about anything else but getting the job done.

Focus is about putting time into things that matter.

When I have focus, I feel a rush of power coursing through me. I feel focused and I feel like I can get things done.

I sleep better. I am more efficient. I am more motivated.

What does it take to get focus?
Focus is about putting the right people in place. It is about hiring people who are goal oriented and who know how to get things done. It is about trusting them and allowing them to do their job. It is about letting go of control.

Focus is about removing the things cause distraction. It is about removing anything that does not allow you to get focus. This may mean removing distractions such as commitments, deadlines and other people.

Focus is about creating a distraction free zone. It is about creating a space where you cannot be distracted. It is about removing anything within your home which distracts you. This may be a clutter of paperwork which stops you from being focused.

Focus is about removing distractions within your life.

When I am focused, I seem to be able to get things done. I am not procrastinating. I am not struggling.
