You can see that the start of this blog post went SOUTH! I mean just look at how my check list was going and out of no where someone calls. Then I found myself having a 1 hour conversation that took up more time. How did that happen so quickly? Let me explain, it is called DISTRATIONS! How many of us are overly involved in working or organizations? Show of hands anyone? (I'm actually raising both of my hangs lol) Yup I thought you would be raising your hand. You see this is a prime example of being overly committed and having to many things on your plate. Things that actually shouldn't even be on your plate are taking up room in your life. The extra things on your plate is only going to make you full to the point that you won't be able to digest it. So, the question is why do we hold on to these extra things on our plate? It's because we don't like change, we like to be busy, and quite honestly it makes us feel successful. All these things are dangerous, because it can and will cause burn out.We become, so effectuated with things we don't even need to be focused on. Again I must say it DISTRACTIONS! Distraction's are not our friends. Distractions are used as a block to keep us from fulfilling our purpose. We lose sight of what's important in the now. We have seasons in life that are vital. These seasons need concentration and organization. Distractions create chaos and confusion. It does not add to our lives, but takes away from our lives. So, today I want you to make a list of things or even people that you don't need on your plate. Below are some steps to take if you want to get rid of those distractions.
- Write down a plan on how to eliminate the distractions,.
- Once you make the plan, set starting dates and stick with it.
- Do not allow these distractions on your plate! You can manage your time.
- Ask for accountability.
- Keep track of what's important in this season
- Identify what if feels like with distractions and without distractions
