Today’s modern world is undoubtedly full of distractions which prevent us from having a productive day.
Most of us believes that multitasking is better because we think we’re doing more. The truth is we’re just shifting focus back and forth which leads to working less effectively than if we’d focused on one thing at a time.
Chris Bailey, the author of “The Productivity Project: Accomplishing More by Managing Your Time, Attention, and Energy
“ says that, “when you multitask, you are not being more productive – you just feel more emotionally satisfied from your work.”
It is not all that hard for you to stay focused and concentrated on whatever you want to do in the workplace or in your life in general.
There are many good tricks that you can use to become focused so you can fix up whatever you are trying to manage.

Many people who search for success lack a couple things that are very important. One I want to cover in this post is the “lack of vision”.
The Bible says in Proverbs 29:18 that with the lack of vision the people perish!
This is so true. Of course we are not going to talk about getting your glasses checked or check to see if you need glasses.
Well, in away maybe that is not such a bad analogy to use either.
When one of my friend first needed glasses, he didn’t even realize how bad his vision really was until after he put his new glasses on and went outside. He noticed everything in a clearer detail than he had in a long time.
He never even knew what he was missing. He told me that while driving home he noticed individual rocks in the gravel along the side of the road instead of just noticing the gravel. Instead of just noticing the trees had leaves he now noticed the patterns of the leaves and even the birds that were in the trees.
He is now seeing things he didn’t even notice he was missing before his new glasses.
Maybe that is part of our problem. We really have no vision or our vision is not focused or as clear as it should be.
Without vision, we cannot succeed in business and in life.
I think our description of the word vision shall be, “Being able to “see” a “clear picture” of your fulfilled goals in your mind. Not just seeing the gravel or the trees but able to see the finer details that make up the gravel and the trees.
