Keep Your Eyes on the Prize
One of life’s biggest challenges is…staying focused.
Our daily lives are usually bombarded with random and unexpected events that can hinder us from achieving our goals. It is therefore very important for us to remain focused and keep our eyes on our target goals while staying motivated.
Staying focused means visualizing your goals.
Imagine why you want to achieve your goals. Imagine what life would be like after reaching them. It is easier to stay focused and motivated when you can constantly visualize why you want to achieve your specific goal.
Staying focused includes setting milestones.
Plan. Plan. Plan. Create smaller, achievable tasks that would eventually lead to your larger goal. This allows you to track your progress and makes reaching your overall goal seem less daunting.
Staying focused means rewarding yourself.
This is a motivational technique that will help you to stay on track. After reaching a milestone, treat yourself by doing something you enjoy. Reading, painting, sleeping, anything. Additionally, getting enough rest is essential for improving your creativity and productivity.
Finally, staying focused means having goal buddies.
That is, surrounding yourself with persons who have similar goals. They help to keep you motivated and can also provide insight on how to achieve your goals. Furthermore, you should study or research your craft. Listen to podcasts or even read about successful stories or about some downfalls of the business.
What are some ways you stay focussed?

Yes. Staying focus is really important. It is something which I have been working on as I tend to get distracted easily. I also agree with surrounding myself with people with similar interest who are focused is really important. I have entered the Wealthy Affiliate program with the thought of just trying out. However, my mindset has changed by the community here. I am really touched with the positivity of the people here. Now I treat this journey seriously!
Yes the WA family is very positive and helpful.
Keep working on your focus. It gets better with time
I wish you all the best. I hope you achieve everything that you set out to achieve.
Hi Fitzgerald, I get it, focus. One thing that I just started doing again is visualizing what my accomplishing my goals might look like, picturing things or accomplishments.
It's new for me, but I keep working at it. Thanks for a great reminder.
Blessings

Its so important to visualize the goals and tasks that must be done. Each day is an opportunity to do more with less, which builds into having whatever one wants in life.

I have been out of focus and I'm trying to get back. I know I'm not trying hard enough. So many distractions and procrastination is my number 1 enemy. 🙁
Thank you for this, it reminded me of what's ahead and why I'm here in the first place.
Best regards,
Carina
