It’s easy to lose focus on what’s most important.
It happens to me from time to time too.
On from the crack of dawn, managing emails, tech snafus, lunches, client issues, emotions, and hundreds of other demands and needs.
And in the hecticness of it all, the planning, thinking, or exercise takes a backseat.
But focusing on the results you want is the difference between getting closer to your goals…or not.
When your result solves your complaint (I don’t have enough time, I’m so scattered, I can’t fit into my jeans), it’s easy to be confused and not know what to do.
Or to feel like circumstances are out of your control.
You’ll have lots of questions without simple answers.
- Where should I be putting my energy?
- What should I focus on next?
- How should I spend my time?
- How can I stay on track?
These questions seem legitimate.
They’re not.
They’re questions from a confused mind.
Questions from not focusing on the results you want.
Focusing on results looks like this…
- XXX is my top priority today.
- I have the results I have because of this XXX (thing that is my priority).
- This XXX (thing I control) is truly the problem…
- And XXX (thing I can control) is my solution.
- I will do this XXX (plan moving forward) to fix it.
This applies to planning, systemizing, losing weight, being more present, and any result you ever want to create.
When you are the problem, you always have the solution.
When you have too many demands, running by the seat of your pants, and worried about details falling through the cracks, the solution feels complicated and uncertain.
Bring it back to your FOCUS.
If you truly look, you can always identify how YOUR focus (or lack thereof) created that result.
Keep looking at what you’re focusing on, until the solution feels obvious, simple, doable, and inevitable.
It gives you the ultimate power to change, to create, to have.
It keeps you out of scatteredness, confusion, and frustration.
It gives you the results you want. Lots of them.
