If you need to focus..........
Research shows that we’re distracted
Every 40 seconds
When we’re sitting in front of a
Computer or we’re on our phones.
We spend over 47% of our times when
We’re browsing the internet
Or on mobile
Phones,
And we check our phones around
Average 86 times per day.
Put your hand if you check
It more than that.
So it’s no surprise that we all
Face distraction.
We all experience
We’re all played
By distraction.
But often we think that the opposite
Of distraction is a focus.
We think that we need to
Become more focused.
We think that if we’re focused
We’ll feel less distracted.
We feel that if we able to draw
Our energy in a certain direction and
Force ourselves to absorb
In an activity.
Then we won’t be
As distracted.
But this is just
Not true.
The opposite of distraction is
Actually not focus.
The opposite of
distraction is
wait for it….
Attraction.
Let me explain
What I mean.
When we’re attracted
To something.
We’re completely fixated,
We’re completely absorbed.
We’re almost addicted and obsessed
To that visual, that song.
Think of a time when you saw someone
That you found attractive.
I’m guessing you couldn’t take
Your eyes off them.
Think of a time when you heard a song and
You had it on repeat all throughout the day.
No matter if there was drilling outdoors,
There was a building being demolished.
Nothing could distract you from the sound
Of that voice and that best.
I know you can hear it in
Your head right now.
What we really need to do is
Increase our attraction.
When we’re attracted to something
We’re naturally focused.
We’re naturally able to be present, we’re
Naturally able to bring our attention
And our energy to that task,
That project, that person.
When we’re distracted and don’t
Have that attraction
We’re naturally all
Over the place.
We end up feeling lost and confused
And end up procrastinating.
So now I know what
You’re thinking.
How do you get attracted to things that
You’re not attracted to.
We all have things in life
That we love to do.
And we all have things in life
That we have to do.
I’m sure that you have a long list
Pf things that you have to do.
And you’re thinking, I’m not
Attracted to any of those things.
Whether it’s doing your accounts, whether
It’s taking the trash out.
Maybe it’s even
Your job.
I’ve got a tip for you. A little trick,
A little insight
That will make your mind understand and
Believe that it’s attracted to something.
Let’s take the example
Of your job.
It’s something that
You have to do.
It’s something you may
Not be attracted to.
When you ask yourself, why
Do I go to my job?
Maybe the answer is
“It pays my bills.”
Maybe the answer is,
“It allows me to take care of my family.”
Maybe you studied for years and you feel that
Your job at least engages you for that.
Whatever your answer is, that starts
Providing some value
To why you do that activity.
When you know that, you recognize
That you’re attracted to be there
Because it serves a
Particular purpose.
You start to become attracted because
Whenever your mind says to you,
I’m bored
I’m distracted.
I’m unfocused.
You say no, I’m because
It puts food on the table.
I’m here because it pays my bills and
Takes care of my family.
I’m here because I studied
And worked hard for this.
You’re able to increase your attractive
To even things.
You’re totally
Unfocused on.
Now, if you found yourself distracted or
Unfocused for too long
That definitely can mean you need to find
More meaningful, fulfilling work.
But no matter what you do, no matter how
Much you chase your passion
And live your purpose, there will still
Be things you’ll have to do
On a daily basis that you
Don’t find interesting.
And naturally, you’ll feel unfocused
And distracted.
For that, ask yourself
This question.
Why am I here?
Why am I doing this?
And you’ll find the mind will start
To become attracted
To that activity, task,
Or even that person.
