One Thing At A Time

Ever get scatter brained?
Oh I saw this, now I have to do this, meanwhile you were working on something else..
One of the reasons some people can get more done than others is they focus on the task/goal at hand before moving on to anything else.  Definiteness of Purpose.  It is one of the first things that is addressed in "Think And Grow Rich" - having a definite purpose.
There are some videos addressing this over at :
http://www.internetanswerkey.com as well.

So, as you have probably heard/read before start with that end result, work backwards to what needs done TODAY, and then take the action on the tasks that need done now to reach that end result.
Easy enough, right?
Funny thing is with this being the information age, there are so many things to distract us.  It then is a balance of what is a distraction versus what is a tool that can help accomplish the goal.  It is quite a bit easier to make that distinction with the goal/desire burned into your brain.  For some that is easier than others too..having the goal burned in..
I think I will address that next time..
