Do you get distracted easily?

Has this happened to you? You start your day with full enthusiasm and as the day goes by you suddenly find yourself wasting the day on some trivial or useless pursuit. You recognize this state you are in, but you don't stop or are unable to stop.
Why does this happen, often, to you? If you have a chronic problem, days go by and weeks go by without accomplishing much.
Here are some of the major reasons you get distracted, again and again:

  • No vision of the future
  • No clear goals set
  • Pleasure centered approach to life
  • Harbor a misnomer that self-discipline is bad
  • Want to escape from reality
  • A strong habit of wasting time
  • No demands placed on you by your organization
  • No demands placed on you by your family
  • A sense of habitual indifference
  • A belief that you are very smart and intelligent and can get to the tasks and finish them easily
  • Overconfidence
  • Settled for "less" in life
It is time to pull up your socks and get going.
Here are a few tips to break loose:
  1. Stop the source of your distraction-turn off the T.V, disconnect from the internet---
  2. Spend time to rethink your life
  3. Set long term exciting goals
  4. Talk to your spouse
  5. Take your friend's help
  6. Read an inspiring book
  7. Get organized and in control
  8. Limit your pleasurable activities to a predetermined duration and time
  9. Start small and conquer
  10. Set family goals together
  11. Celebrate small wins when you get back in control
  12. Set up some productive routines-exercise, meditation, reading---
  13. Substitute time wasting activities with new important activities
  14. Review the program you have set for your self every week
  15. Make course corrections based on the review
All the best! Reclaim your life using the tips given above.

What are the warning signs that you are chronically out of control?

It is easy to be habitually out of control and not even be aware of that state. Over a period of time, being out of control becomes a way of life. 
You get used to the stress. You get used to missing deadlines. You get used to disappointing people. 


Over a period of time this way of life becomes hard wired in to your brain.
You may, well, note these warning signs:

  1. You have too many things to do and you do not know where to begin
  2. You  are constantly missing appointments
  3. People keep calling you up to remind things you promised to deliver to them
  4. Your spouse has given up on you
  5. Your children do not trust you anymore
  6. You have come to the point of not caring about the direction your life is taking
  7. You are aware of several problems-obesity, finance out of control, debts, eating junk food, reading trashy novels, smoking, drinking, forgetting birthdays----and you are doing nothing about them
  8. Every small setback gives you the power to procrastinate
  9. You indulge excess in some mindless activity such as internet surfing, video games, chatting, Facebook, watching the same movie again and again---
  10. You live moment to moment with no planning for future
  11. You set elaborate plans and never follow them
  12. Your house is a junk yard
  13. You have low energy even in the morning
  14. You overeat 
  15. You have no friends or your friends have abandoned you
  16. You are on the verge of losing your job
  17. Your skill sets are all redundant
  18. You have sunken eyes because of lack of sleep
  19. Your libido is low
  20. You constantly fear that things will go wrong because you know deep inside you that you are not well prepared
  21. You dream of some unrealistic fantasy where you picture yourself very rich and powerful
  22. You do nothing to realize your dreams
  23. You have lost touch with your family
  24. Your children are aping you
  25. You know deep inside you need to change but you feel helpless
If you have several of these signs then what you need to realize is that you have hit the bottom. 


The good news is that the only direction you can move is upwards; Another good news is that you have the choice-either to remain at the bottom or to move upwards.


The journey is tough but the sooner you begin the better it will be for you.

Are you falling behind in fulfilling your desires and wants?

How many desires do you have and not done anything about? The more you have the less you are living a life you want to live. Think about it. Desires are the currency of your actions. Don't let trivial pursuits or other people's demands short change your actions.


The best way to begin is to take an inventory now or sooner or later.


A good inventory will look like what is given below:

  • Spend time with family
  • Take spouse for a vacation
  • Buy a platinum diamond necklace for your wife
  • Loose weight
  • Get a promotion
  • Change a job
  • Start on a path of a new career
These are just few items on a sample list I just made

Make your own list and get going

How often do you shake your routine?

It is very easy to fall into routines. Many a times, months may go by, before you may even realize that you are stuck in a routine. 


It is not bad to get stuck to a routine as long as you have consciously chosen it. 


However, most of the routines have been set unconsciously and are dysfunctional in nature.


Examining your routines periodically and weeding them out is a very productive exercise-it has to be done at least once in three months.


What routine are you going to eliminate or modify today?
