In each story of defeating any obstacle, the primary focus is drive and determination. While any accomplishment is demanding in its own way, willpower should never be understated. When you approach any individual, who has achieved success, they will confide in you that they were not brought into this world with determination; they discovered how to utilize it in a feasible manner. Here are three distinct approaches to remain determined and focused:
Set Up Your Day the Night Before
Before you go to sleep, make some basic decisions about what you will do tomorrow, such as what you will wear, what you will eat for lunch, and the route you will take to work. It is easier to pack a healthy lunch the night before than to decide what you are going to have with a hot dog vendor parked in front of your workplace. Getting into the habit of planning your day in advance will remove your easiest decisions from the table, making it easier to avoid getting sidetracked and wasting time and energy.
Do the Most Difficult Things First
The most difficult duties will not get easier the more we fret about them or put them off. We will only waste energy that would be better spent by just digging in. Get after the hardest job of your day right away, while you are still fresh and have the energy. Research has shown that our minds are sharpest in the morning, which is why we should use the mornings to tackle our toughest jobs. After these are out of the way, we can relax and take care of the more routine work that doesn’t require much in the way of mental strain, ability, and energy.
Eliminate Distractions and Time Wasters
In life, you can bet that real emergencies will come up, causing a distraction to your normal routine. However, the majority of situations that do come up to distract us are not emergencies and do not require us to respond right away. Choose to stay mindful of what you respond to. By not responding to every small inconvenience that comes your way, you make it easier to avoid such distractions in the future, while enjoying the peace-of-mind that uninterrupted work brings.
