Mindful Leadership in Action – Tip of the Week – Develop Focus by Doing One Thing at a Time

Posted on by admin

The ability to focus means you can be in a meeting from beginning to end without losing concentration. It means you are able to stay present when you are having a conversation or negotiating a deal. It means you can drive without your mind wandering. And it means that you can play a round of golf without thinking about the miserable shot on the last hole or the hole in one you made yesterday. It means that you can focus on what matters most to you in any given moment.

And how do you do this?  Start by training yourself to focus your attention on one thing at a time.  When you are in a meeting just listen to those speaking and interject when necessary.  Do nothing else.   When you drive; just drive.  Don’t plan the shopping list.  When you play golf; just play one shot at a time.

If you take care of this moment the next moment will take care of itself.  With practice, soon you will find that you become much more effectively and efficiently in every aspect of your life.
