How to stay Focused

Focus

It is a term in Psychology which can be defined as the ability of  mind centering our attention  on a single stimulus.
Let's make it simple like if a child is playing a guitar and other is studying. Now the child who is studying has two options, either he can study or play guitar but keeping the present situation study is more important as he can play guitar later. He choose first option, it is focus.
Focus can only occur when we say yes to one option and no to all other options.
Focus is a key to success.

Why people can't stay focused:

Now there are two main factors which drives you internally and externally and helps you to remain focused. These two forces determines your ability to remain focused and to avoid distractions.
Internal Factor: It comprises of your state of mind. How much you are internally strong and confident. Your peace of mind and positivity made this factor. It includes your emotions and beliefs. 
External Factor: Second one is your surroundings. How you get impressed or distracts with your surroundings. It includes things and people around you.
These internal and external factors affect your state of mind and defines how focused you are. If  both these factors are positive or at your side you become more focused and vice-versa.

How to Stay Focused?

As we already know what factors decide our state of mind, Internal and External. So let us know how to deal with these factors to get more focused in our work.

Make your Surroundings Peaceful and full of Positive Vibes: While doing any work put your cell phone aside on silent mode so that it will not distract you. Place a wind chime in your home which brings positive vibes.
Writing: Write your goals in the morning and work on it.
Meditation: Do meditation or work out at your home for at least 20-30 minutes daily.
Live in the moment: The most important thing to remain focused is to live in the present not to worry about future things and not to recall past things while doing your work.
Reading: Reading books can also helps to improve your concentration power.
Make your goals clear: Do not indulge yourself in too many activities make your niche very clear and avoid yourself from outer distractions.
Take a Break: If any work takes too much time to complete then take a break of short intervals in-between. Like if you have a sitting work, you can try to walk or move around from time to time.
Proper Sleep: An adult needs a sleep of 7-8 hours a day to recover his battery and mental strength.
Food: The food we eat works as a fuel to our body. It is very important what kind of food you are having. A hungry person can't focus on anything except on food, on the other hand if you eat too much you will be overcome by sleep. So it is very important to have a balance diet.
Enjoy your time: Spend some time on your hobbies or things that you like such as reading, playing games or writing etc.
