Have you noticed how every time you decide to focus on something important, distractions seem to show up—right on cue?
You’ve got a plan, you’re ready to dive in, and then… suddenly there’s a problem, a last-minute request, or the temptation to scroll your phone “for just a minute.” Before you know it, your focus has shifted.
Here’s the thing: distractions aren’t surprises—they’re part of the process.
The key? Don’t fight them—*prepare for them.*
Here’s how:
– Expect them. Distractions will show up, so be ready.
– Spot your go-to excuses.- What’s the one you rely on? “I’ll do it later”? “I’m too busy”?
– Plan your response.– When distractions come, what’s your move? A quick break, a reset, or a reminder of why this matters?
Planning for distractions takes the power away from them. You stay in control.
