EP 41- Steve Taylor, Jason Graybeal, Producer Andre': How to Maintain Focus in a Distracting World
Where does the time go? You know, that time you’ve been scrolling aimlessly through social media keeping up with Susan who just posted a new profile picture or the countless emails you flagged to revisit when you have time, or the random walks to the fridge in the office to look for a snack or better yet, more time? We’re all guilty of it and as technology advances, our attention is the number one thing under attack by the second, minute, hour, and day as we are bombarded with countless notifications, interruptions, and bullsh#t that make us less productive.
The average person only gets about 6 hours of work done per day. A common theme for many people is how to maintain focus and productivity. Last week, Producer Andre’ asked a few questions in our Facebook Group and one that stood out was:
“How do you maintain focus?”
Today, Steve Taylor, Jason Graybeal, and Producer Andre’ share how they each do battle with maintaining focus. Andre’ shares his high diagnosis of ADHD at 21 years of age, and what he does daily to keep himself focused. Steve and Jason deep dive into the impact of distractions and how it affects productivity in their personal lives and at work. Jason breaks down the importance of managing your time well as Steve chimes in on what activities are costing you hundreds if not thousands of dollars simply by not setting rules for yourself.
What You’ll Learn:
“The way I describe my mind is if you have your computer open and you have 30 tabs up and you’re clicking between all of them and you’re not doing anything on each page, but you’re hammering through all the tabs……click, click, click, click, click…..that’s what it’s like all day in my head.
Without structure and lining my day out the day before and lining my week out, the week before, I’m not as productive as I could be. Having structure and bullet-pointing my day out almost by the hour is the number one way that I stay focused.”
