So many times I’ve popped upstairs for a different color yarn to finish a project, took a minute (huh!) to check emails/social networks…and an hour’s passed, I’ve gone back downstairs without the yarn (because I’ve forgotten why I ever went upstairs in the first place)

One solution? Move the yarn stash downstairs!

I agree, the habit of focus is definitely a learned behavior and one that take some practice…some focus! I, for one, was not blessed at birth with the ‘easy focus bug” and have had to really work on it – but through lifes little speed bumps, I have learned to wield my “focus sword” well, over the years – and I am thankfull for that. Wherever we are in business (owner, manager, etc), there are a million things that can defocus us and here’s the crux – time is going to go by anyway – you don’t want to have that “bug attracted to lightbuld” syndrom happening. Clarify, focus and stick closely to your goals – this article has been a wonderful reminder to all, thank you.
