Goal achievement is all about having the right focus.
Without the proper focus, you will waste your time and experience with minimum progress.
If you do not manage to focus, you will spread your attention outward. You can feel that you are busy, but really, are you in the same place spins.

- Forget multitasking
Research shows that multitasking destroys the progression and that you get more done if you focus on one thing at a time. Single-tasking is the new multitasking. - By some reason, you get called for multitasking and it to have many balls in the air especially in the business world.
But the truth is that it cannot multitask. A computer can do it. It can perform multiple tasks simultaneously.
But such is not we screwed together. Just try to talk to another person, as you type. Or type with one hand, while drawing with the other. When you “multitasker” is you really doing only one task at a time, but apart from that you stick to the one task, the fragments you focus your more frequent back and forth between different tasks.
When you do this, you often forget details, and you work ineffective.
Set of time where you work effectively with only one task at a time. - Have self-discipline
It runs much in Facebook, Web browsing, or talking with colleagues?
Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but all in good time.
Are you going to have focus, and expand your attention span, it is important that you do not allow you to distract.
New technology makes that we become increasingly distracted, then just a few years ago. Passing a lot of emails, and phone alerts about new events on facebook or other apps. VIPs so stands the one with the phone in my hand, when you really should have a focus on something completely different.
Therefore, you need to have self-discipline enough to resist impulses to check the phone, check the mail, or chat with the man page.
The most effective way to do this is to wait with the impulse you get.
E.g., You are going to write a report. So plunger it in your phone. What else would you do? Stopped with what you did, and see what happens.
But does either this: wait to answer after impulses as distracts you. Observe that you get an impulse-but let it rather be. Continue with what you do, and check your phone when you either have a break or when it’s time for it.
This is banal simple, but the fact is that we share our attention everywhere. And it is very inefficient and very damaging to your progression.
Do you understand the context?
This is the same concept that makes people become smoker and junkies. Otherwise, they would have taken a cigarette or snuff the first time they felt sucked. But when you’re going to be nicotine free, you increase your chances of success for every time you resist these impulses. And eventually you develop a greater self-discipline, and these impulses become weaker and weaker. - Set you goals
To be effective and have a proper focus, you should set yourself a goal for tomorrow.
When the evening comes, take a few minutes to figure it out one goal you should now the day after. This is a good idea because when the day first come-and you don’t have a goal for the day, it is easy to be distracted by the many things going on.
But have you in advance set you a agenda, this will be at the top of the
consciousness, and it will be natural for you to have the focus on
this.
At the same time, when you get a target the day before you will
find yourself in a more objective condition so that you can more easily
see what needs to be done in order for you to get closer to the main
target.
Ask yourself the following question: what is the one job I
must have done in the morning, which leads me closest to the main goal?
The answer to this question will give clear signals on what you should focus on.
