How to focus when it's NOT business as usual - Part 1
This is the first in a set of videos that I’m going to be sharing with you on the topic of How to Focus When It’s NOT Business as Usual.
Over the coming weeks, I’m going to share an idea or strategy per week to support you in staying motivated, productive and as focussed as you can be in your business and work.
I have so much to share with you, yet I want to keep these videos short! (Today’s video is 7:22)
So, never before have we had to deal with so much going on in our lives as we move through this Global Health situation.
I love the phrase that’s going around now on social media, maybe you’ve seen it. It states:
“You are not working from home….you are at home, during a crisis, trying to work” (- Posted on the Psychiatric Rehabilitation Association and Foundation's Facebook page)
Even if you normally run your business from your home office, you know this is different…I’m hearing that people are feeling de-motivated, it’s difficult to focus, to think and to be creative. If you’re feeling like this, know that you are not alone in these experiences.
And, I think the quote above is a reminder to us about the pressure that we can place on ourselves; and a reminder that this isn’t business as usual.
Yet, for many of us, having our work to focus on can actually give us a sense of normality and purpose and in many cases it’s important to continue to serve the needs of those that depend on us. And, quite frankly many of us need to keep working…
So, that’s what I wanted to talk about today….how to focus so you can keep working.
Tune in here for today’s idea…
I hope this is supportive for you today and as you move forward.
I will be sharing more ideas on this theme of creating focus when it’s NOT business as usual in the coming weeks, so stay tuned. If you’re not on my mailing list to receive them, be sure to sign-up to my list so these will go straight to your email.
