Struggling to write this blog tonight, as I am constantly distracted by my co-worker in the office, he is talking another language and I am really having a challenge to keeping my focus on my task. I don't speak this language and it makes me want to learn it, so I'm not in the dark.
Sometimes we want to focus yet get easily distracted, maybe we are tired or have tense muscles that prevent us from really relaxing and letting it flow.
Yes flow would be great right now, maybe I am trying too hard.
Focusing is an art form, you shut everything around you and have laser-beam concentration that not even an earthquake could scatter. Just think of someone about to tee-off in golf they are so in that precise moment, that the surrounding noises become irrelevant and you are with your body and breath.
Think about an Formula 1 car driver, he is so present listening to his car at every turn, every gear change that he speaks the same language. He is so focused on what he needs to do, considering all aspects, the weather, the track, what fuel strategy he is on, what he needs to accomplish and who he needs to watch. It is precision timing and again concentration and focus.
I am getting a headache just thinking about it! When I focus I need an intention a reason why I need to do it, and presto, it gets done. However days like today, I have moments of relapse and I can focus in small time segments instead.
That is ok, as I know what my bigger picture is and I can approach it 'one small bite at a time'
So if your page looks blurry like mine, it is time to take a break and start again later.
