Disconnect and Conquer

Many times we feel overwhelmed by what is going on around us; too many things to do and just not enough hours in the day!


How do we then create that separation & balance? Should we 'focus' on one activity first and then another? The answer is: 'No, we shouldn't FOCUS!'


Focus is perhaps the wrong word to use. Instead, we choose to disconnect from everything except the activity at hand. 


Focus reminds us there are distractions, which in turn leads us down the path of each distraction at inappropriate times. 


Disconnect implies that only one thing exists in front of you. Imagine if you will, a black hole enveloping everything else.The less complex the environment, the easier it is to think of nothing else.


According to Tony Robbins, the words we use to describe our experience become our experience. Hence, Focus on transforms to disconnect from.



You can disconnect yourself from people, emotions, electronic devices etc. You'll work better, achieve more even if it's only for a few minutes at a time.
