It is amazing how the mind works and how easy it seems to accomplish whatever we want as long as we set our hearts and put our minds to it. It's amazing what the World has accomplished, and how easy communication has become because some people allowed their minds to get to work. This is a good story, but the better news is that you and me can accomplish all these and much more. Only if we put our mind to it. As easy as this sounds though, it is such a hard task. Not because we do not want to accomplish great things, but because there are little foxes that are out to stop us. I call these foxes distractions. They seem so simple and so inconsequential, but they go a very long way in stopping us from achieving that which we can accomplish easily. The power of focus is so important, and what you should be doing are things that help you focus more, not things that take you away from your task at hand.
Distractions come in various forms, but the easiest way to identify them a re in your weaknesses. You see, it could come in the form of entertainment, You think you are going to watch TV for just five minutes, but it usually ends up turning to five hours. How about listening to music on your ipod or fancy phone, this my seem innocuous, but it sure has a way of limiting your thinking time. There are so many things out there to distract, such as skype, facebook or any current social network outlet.
The best way to know a distraction is to think of the consequences of your actions before you act. Will the after effect make you feel gratified or depressed? Would you wonder what you were thinking when the deed is done? Or would you be glad you did the deed you thought about.
Success is so easy to achieve. What you need to know is that you need to be doing what you should be doing, and you will be amazed how easy life is..
Peace.
