Practical Steps for Success #2: Douse the Distractions

       Practical Steps for Success #2 : Douse the Distractions

The days that are the craziest, are the toughest to manoeuvre! To deflect all that combative energy, you may feel the need for Wonder Woman at your side! It is a rough world out there!

Is it possible that you are constantly distracted throughout the entire day?

Here is an easy formula to take back control. Start with your senses:

• Sight: Am I sitting in a spot that allows me peripheral vision to any and all issues going on right now? If yes, turn your back to the visual clutter.
• Hearing: Are the construction guys out there again, and the weed-hackers? What is with that music? Sound is a huge distraction, time to plug in to your own white noise or your tunes; cancel this out as best you can.
• Smells: What is that smell? Garbage? Cinnamon buns? Coffee? Whatever this distraction is,  -it triggers another distraction in your brain. Get your vice and get back to work.
• Taste: This works with the smell. Sometimes a soothing peppermint or gum can work through the after-taste of lunch. Fresh pallets can create fresh ideas.
• Touch: This one is a pet peeve of mine; I hate things that are sticky! Take a second to clear the keyboard, the arms of the chair and toss the garbage. You will feel better.

Using the Five Senses is a simple, easy way to check in with your actions and maintain productivity. Keep working on it!

You CAN douse these distractions; one step at a time.
