Successful entrepreneurs understand they must remove distractions for three key reasons:
Better Time Management and Productivity
Distractions only take up your time and resources, therefore, reducing your productivity.
Removing distractions prevents you from wasting this time on things that ultimately don’t matter.
Better Creativity and Quality Work or Products
Zero distractions mean you gain more time to develop a deeper focus and concentration that allows you to work better and produce higher quality work.
It fuels creativity and inspiration.
Proper Business and Personal Organization
Removing distractions means removing possible frustrations, stress, and constant confusion of wondering where you left off last. Keeping your personal and business life organized.
Organization allows you to stay focused and on track to accomplish your goals.
When you have a clear path and understanding of what needs to get done, it’s easier to achieve it.
Now you know why it’s important to remove distractions to get more done. It’s time to set your goals! Click the image below for your FREE copy of the No Nonsense Goal Setting Guide!
Follow these four tips to help remove distractions to achieve your goals faster and easier:
Establish Realistic Work Hours
If you can create your own schedule and work hours, take advantage of it and be realistic and honest. If you know you are a night owl, for example, then don’t expect yourself to work by 6 AM.
If this isn’t a good time for you, no matter how good you are at getting up on time, you won’t be working at your best or produce your best work.
Schedule your work hours during times you know you will be fully rested and ultimately distraction-free.
Understand Your Limits and Willpower
In other words, if you know you won’t stop looking at your phone, then you must put your phone in a separate room.
Create strategies that work with your weaknesses to ensure you don’t limit your success.
If you want it, you will find a way to work around your downfalls.
Stop Multitasking
Believe it or not, multitasking is a distraction.
Every time you switch between a different task, your brain needs time to reset even if you don’t notice it.
Let Others Know Your Goals and Needs
The more you inform people upfront about your intentions, the less likely they will keep you from them.
If they do, then they are not there to support you, and best to keep them out of your life.
If you aspire to be a mover or shaker or achieve your dreams at all, you need to be the one creating the distractions, not entertaining them.
Implement these tips and tricks into your daily routine to keep distractions from interfering with your dreams.
