How not to get stuck and distracted?

Hi y'all,


I suppose it's something common to get stuck in the online world, since it's like a jungle full of information and tools.

I usually get stuck and distracted because I'm so curious (I want to know everything lol) and I usually have a lot of ideas come to my mind, so I keep asking myself things like "what if I do this instead of that?", "what's the best way to do this?".

When I'm interested in something, I search for information from various sources and like to know everyone's point of view on that subject. I see a lot of possibilities and options and would like to try them all but it's not possible to do everything and be everywhere at the same time lol, that's why I have a hard time deciding what to do first and what to do next, as well as having to choose between various options.

It's like there are a lot of ways to do things and accomplish what you want. For example, a lot of us before starting an online business, we need to choose a niche and a business model (affiliate marketing, ecommerce, advertising, apps...), but we have the same or a very similar purpose, that is helping people while earning an income doing so.

I wonder if what I described also happens to you and how you deal with this. I would like to know about your experience =)


Have a fabulous day everybody :)

I agree Miren, with so much information out there it can be daunting task to try and process it all. Take little bits of useful info. And jot it down. You might not have an immediate need for it but at least you will have it.

That's it, sometimes I find myself looking for information that's not essential to know at that moment.

It think that happens to many people, but we must accept that that is bad for business, and strive to get it right. Thanks for your introspective post, Miren.

Yes, it may be a common issue. You're welcome :)

Navigating in a world of information overload can be frustrating Miren. If you outline and then carefully focus on a mapping strategy, it should work for you!

Right, thanks for your advice :)

I wrote a training about staying focussed, perhaps you do have benefit of it

Thanks Loes =) I'll check it out

Stay Focused

The trick is to stick to the basics until they are handled before getting bogged down in too much info. But it is good to search for lots of answers.

Agreed, sometimes I'm quite "hungry" for more information lol

Yep! Have difficulty in staying focused. Too many bright objects out there.

Right, and unfortunately there are also so many scams :(

True!

Miren, I have the same issue.

I believe it's something quite common.

Yes, Miren, staying focused is very tough.

I have also been in situations where I have been like "What's the best way to do this" and all that, or "how is this going to work for me."

Exactly, I always ask myself this kind of questions.
