Stop Thinking "Dis"

Distracted, disenfranchised, disengaged. All these "dis's" show up because we allow ourselves thoughts to go from what we have to do, to what we are not doing. Then we stop doing. Ultimately, we fail to achieve what we want and need to do.

Does this sound familiar. In one way shape or form, I know that I am working with this everyday. A simple solution to overcome these thoughts. Focus on one challenge at a time.

Our brain is not wired to handle all this overload. In response, our thoughts causes us to concentrate on all we have not done. Subsequently, we fail to notice what we have accomplished - big and small. We fail to notice what simple small steps we can do next to help us out of downward spiral. We fail to note the progress we have made.

Today, rather than allowing all the "dis-connects to affect our success. Let's focus on what we are attracted to, franchised towards, engaged with. Start connecting with goals we can accomplish. Take small action positive action steps. Measure successes not matter how small.

This is a simple system and it works for me every time.

  1. This was helpful this morning - I was completely overwhelmed yesterday, going to try focusing on one thing at a time today.
