Focus to Finish: Achieve More, Stress Less



About this Course:

Constant access to information and the expectations to do more with less is overwhelming for most in today’s fast-paced world. It is so easy to get distracted with a multitude of things while working. Distractions, however, decrease effectiveness. Chasing short-term gratification can also result in piled up stress, low confidence, and feeling of worthlessness. Employees who are unfocussed can have an invisible compounding effect on the organization’s balance sheet with loss of valuable business relationships, team productivity, etc. At an organizational level, HR and Leadership is often faced with the challenge of building gateways to retain employee focus during working hours.

Of the many options you have on a daily basis, how do you know what to focus on? How do you know where to direct your energy and attention? How do you determine the one thing that you should commit to doing in the present moment or day? Amidst the endless chatter of your mind, how can you feel empowered to make hard decisions and eliminate things that are not a good use of your time? As it is said – “Energy flows where the attention goes”. When you focus on something, it expands. Focus is the gateway to all thinking: perception, memory, learning, reasoning, problem solving, and decision making. Focus combined with purpose, can truly transform your life. It results in living consciously rather than mindlessly falling victim to whatever comes our way. It determines the level of success you achieve. Focus is actually a muscle which when enhanced, enables people to remain in the present moment and apply their efforts to the task at hand.

This results in increased productivity, more creativity and better relationships.
