Change your focus. Change your life.
What you focus on expands! Author unknown
How many things have you allowed to consume your thoughts, your life, your focus?
My passion is empowering women and I see many who are allowing self sabotage due to a lack of eliminating distractions.
One of the most detrimental things to your destiny is ?broken focus.? There are many things competing for your attention. Unless you make a conscious decision to eliminate distractions you will lose the battle.
What is it that you?ve been giving your undivided attention to? Where is your focus?
Are you consumed by lost opportunities and are unable to move forward because you are focused on the loss?
Do you focus on fear instead of becoming confident and embracing a lifestyle of faith? Besides as I always say your confidence in God in you ?trumps? fear.
Broken focus can be a result of a lack of vision. I know that?s a little obvious, however, I?m not speaking of vision as in your eyesight but your vision for life and your business.
Here are a few ways to stay focused.
Make a checklist.
I?ve become more committed to utilizing checklists in my personal and business life. Most of my trainings include a checklist or two. Checklists show you where you are, how much you have progressed, and what still needs to be done in order to achieve your goal.
Emergencies happen and at times it?s hard to get back in the groove of things. When you utilize checklists it will help bring you up to speed.
Eliminate distraction.
I mentioned this earlier, however, this requires a section of it?s own. Distraction is your focus? greatest enemy. Like temptation, it is insidious and will find all sorts of ways to mess with your concentration. Before you even start working, you should start by eliminating all possible sources of distraction.
Did you know that distraction can also be internal. These are those limiting beliefs disguised as doubts and worries that do nothing to help you reach your goal. Identify your limiting beliefs, locate the trigger and replace with empowering beliefs. There?s more but this will get you started on achieving laser focus.
Unplug.
Log out from all social networking and social messaging systems as well as Internet forums.
In short this may mean logging out of all social networking and social messaging systems including Internet forums.
Of course you?ll find great information and are able to stay connected with your network or market by keeping yourself online, but come on, surely your personal life or business can exist for a few hours without being on the Twitter and Facebook zone?
Like it or not, Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, Pinterest, Google+ , forums etc. and all other ways to communicate with people online will only be a potential source of distraction.
If you have to, set a separate schedule for it .
Meditate.
Now I?m going to share with you the benefits of meditating, however, right up front I will say that my greatest form of meditation is meditating on the word of God.
There are studies that have proven that meditation techniques ? just like breathing exercises ? are helpful in clearing your mind and improving your focus. If the words and figures that you are supposed to analyze are blurring right before your eyes, it is definitely the time to meditate.
Find a quiet place to sit and close your eyes and let your mind wander freely is good enough.
Do you find that you end up sleeping instead of meditating? You might try to position yourself for empowering meditation not sleeping meditation which means don?t lie down. (smile)
Take a time-out but don?t lose track of time
Do you ever get overwhelmed? It?s easy to get a little burned out when you?ve worked too hard for a few days. My advice to ladies is to stop! Do something you absolutely enjoy.
Taking time out is good, however, you want to make sure that you time it. You can schedule a 10 ? 15 minute break if you?re only working a few hours. Also know that it may not come at your prescheduled time but when you do feel the need to take time out remember to time it.
Saturate everything with prayer.
You know I can?t leave out the power of prayer to render clarity of vision, reignite your passion and empower you to have laser focus.
Here?s one of my favorite verses
Commit your works to the Lord and He will establish your thoughts. Proverbs 16:3
What are you looking at? It?s time to redirect. Stop focusing on what hasn?t happened and focus on your desired results. Focus on the joy of achieving your goals. Focus on God?s goodness, His faithfulness.
Change your focus. Change your life.

She gained clarity and focus?..
Before working with Robin in the Make it Happen 30 days of Empowerment
Coaching program, I was looking for a coach that could provide some
guidance and directions with the goals that I wanted to achieve. After
working with Robin I got more clarity on how to break down my goals and
focus on the areas that I could strengthen.? Then I could identify the
areas that I needed to work on more in depth and now I have more
confidence in pursuing the goals that I have set for bringing my Vision
to reality.? Robin has a great positive attitude and knows how to work
with her clients to help them achieve maximum results.? Thanks for all
you do Robin and may God continue to Bless you and the GREAT work you
do.
