focus

I’m sure if I focus on ONE thing at a time, instead of multi-tasking (unless multitasking really WAS appropriate and maybe even helped), then I might get more done. I find that I can be a bit scatterbrained, then if I jump from thing to thing and/or procrastinate….. well I end up being even more scatterbrained! I’ll try and focus! Can I do it?

Focus on ONE THING! Right now, it’s phone pictures onto PC..... not distraction to, let’s say, a sudoku puzzle (seriously I brought the book down and almost jumped to doing it – don’t know why – but then thought NO I’m doing this right now. Haha, see what I mean??).

So, I listened to this from FlyLady (Focus makes me fabulous!), it lasts for 15 minutes and while it was on I wrote some of my diary. I think it did help to make me think, “I’m going to get my diary and write it”. I really do need to focus more often, FlyLady is right – we always try and go in 10 different directions, but babysteps, just focus on one thing for 15 minutes and it’ll be better!

Argh! It can be so hard to concentrate, on one thing at a time, or even at several things at a time. I know sometimes multi-tasking can actually be useful, but a lot of the time it really isn’t and just makes my already ‘all over the place’ brain feel even more all over the place, but I do it because I find it hard to focus! I don’t know that I have ADD (or ADHD), but it seems like it sometimes. Actually quite a lot of the time. Anyway, whether or not I do… I know I have trouble concentrating. To prove my point simply – the amount of web pages I have up at once. I know I’m not the only person who does this, but sometimes it just would be simpler, maybe I’d get more done, if I just focus on one thing at a time! Maybe even 2 sometimes… but not 100s as I sometimes try to do ‘cause my mind is all over the place!
