Focus

I often find myself overwhelmed by the many things that demand my attention. So much so that I end up making little progress because I haven't given any one thing the time and energy it deserves. And over the years, I've also found that prioritizing those things lend well to my successes throughout those areas in my life.

So, why is it that when the burdens are high that I forget to prioritize, subsequently becoming overwhelmed?

Surely there are numerous reasons why. However, it's most likely that I attempt to quickly put out (what I feel are) fires, only to discover that the process in doing so cannot be done quickly. This compounds my feeling of being overwhelmed and again, I make little progress.

My solution to this is to create a routine by which I outline my commitments/projects/responsibilities on a daily basis. In theory, it's a no-brainer, however, I believe the key to success in this area is consistency (as consistency creates habits). If you struggle in this area of your life as well, I encourage you to adopt a beneficial solution. And as we build our new productive habits, let's remember to be bold, beautiful, kind, courageous and focused along the way.

Love & Peace
