There are always distractions - if you allow them.
"Successful people maintain positive focus in life no matter what is going on around them. They stay focused on their past successes rather than their past failures and on the next action steps they need to take to get them closer to the fulfillment of their goals rather than all the other distractions the life presents them" Jack Canfield
This is the major problem I face that apart from full time job and a family with two kids, there are still so many distractions on the way.
I always think of completing a task but
distractions, distractions, distractions
it becomes hard to keep focused before moving on. I am sure, I am not the only one having this problem. I just want to put a reminder for myself and others to keep focused, only then we can achieve goals which we set in the first place.

I think that we all face daily distractions, but we have to find the time and a quiet place to stay focused. It is definitely challenging at times.
Can't agree more with this . And one thing about distractions is that it leads to procrastination , which will result in even more Wasted time .
Focus is really an important element to success !
Love this post
Cheers bud
I agree totally Mo, its a challenge to remain focused with all of the noise around me. My screen name is purposeful as a constant reminder of what I am attempting to accomplish here with WA.
Agree ! I get up every morning thinking today will be a whole day full of achieving my goals, the day slips by with extra tasks added into it before I can sit down and get on with what i had intended to do. Today it was racket stringing, two rackets, nearly two hours, then the boy is back from tennis for lunch. He goes back for the afternoon, I look at the computer for the first time, 132 emails! Oh! A call from my mother, order in for supplies and its 20 minutes to 6pm ! Ive ordered a new diary/planner today, this is going to be my saviour! I am going to set goals each day, organise my work, no email answering until the work is done ! I love doing my online work, but get frustrated that other things always push in front !
That's true.Until and Unless one keeps track of these activities..the time goes so quickly that it is so easy to lose the plot.
