Get Your Brain to Focus Better

Get Your Brain to Focus Better The older I get, the more I realize I'm fiddling with small things that drive me crazy but keep me busy. And I do it with the full knowledge that it's not the best use of my time, I'm below my pay grade, and I'm distracting from the big stuff I should be doing. Over the years, I've noticed almost everybody I know does the same thing. I've also learned it doesn't have to do with procrastination as much as getting a quick win and a short-term payoff. Yes, the reward for more significant projects is getting what you want, but checking off your list of little stuff is distractingly intoxicating. It makes you feel good all day but keeps you awake at night. The solution is to think bigger. As I work through my day, I focus on my life's biggest, broadest, and most important mission. Is it family? Is it your health? Do you want to make more money? Is it time to give back more? When you have a great picture painted in your mind, your mission becomes your focus, and you will do whatever it takes to move closer to that vision That's why - "I work on BIG things I love, not SMALL things that drive me crazy." Imagine your impact on your life and the world by focusing on big. The small stuff is going to get done. If not, it doesn't matter. Big stuff does matter. Learn more about your ad choices.
