Hello beautiful people, it's another day to be grateful, to show loyalty even in our activities. This week's prompt by @indiaunited is just a question to help us reflect on our lives, obviously everyone gets distracted but in different ways and levels, so the definition of distraction will always differ one to another based on our different experience. Therefore everyone cannot be distracted by generally the same thing.
To be honest staying focused is one of those difficult things people really don't talk about, especially in our current world, I've been in the hands of distractions so many times, as a young person I know when I'm distracted I know what to do but the problem lies on doing what I know.
One of which is as a result of procrastination, I mean if not everyone can relate but a good number of people knows what procrastination can do, so any time I want to do something then get distracted on the way the first thing on my mind is “I will do later” this statement has cause a lot of problem to why I fail. Who else notice that you can hardly do stuffs when your friends or colleagues are just around, yeah they are all bunch of distractions, it's funny but that's the reality. I struggled to put this post together because of the people around they just keep distracting me with discussions and loud music. My phone is also another distraction, yeah although it is very useful to me, my work and even to the people around me but it is at the same time a distraction.
So did you notice that those things I highlighted just before this paragraph are those things I know distracts me, to be very clear and without much explanation, the moment I'm distracted the very first thing I always do is to tackle the distraction it self, whenever we're distracted we all know why we're distracted. Another important thing is stress, sometime I find myself too tired that I can't even write a post, it leads to procrastinating.
In that same manner I always try to put away the distraction, yeah it's easy to say but difficult to do, so whenever I feel stuck I slowly begin to look at my goals my achievement and the work to do, doing this helps me to focus again because I know the work is still very much to be done.
Another way I get rid of some distractions are good rest, rest is very important in our daily life sometimes I do too much and at the end of the day I can't complete the work, because I always feel lost even in the midst of the work, so I always take sometime to relax before I continue. Distraction mostly happens in the mind first and you will wonder why you're in a place but your mind has gone too far to be seen, when my mind is crowded I always just take a break simple.
These are just the few things I do to stay focus which has been of help to me. Here is the link to the prompt Link
