5 Ways to Improve Your Focus, #2
1. Make a “to-do” list. Our homes are full of distractions – laundry, TV, more laundry – and having a written outline of your daily goals can help you stay on task.
2. Declutter your desk or office. It can be difficult to concentrate with stacks of papers and walls of Post-It notes vying for your attention.
3. Play music. If the kids’ laughing (or arguing) is keeping you from concentrating, playing a little music – particularly tunes that you like and know the lyrics to -- can help filter the noise.
4. Grab a snack. Who can focus with a grumbling belly?
5. Take a break. All work and no play can dull Jack’s mind. A quick walk around the block or (gasp!) to the laundry room can change your focus briefly and make you feel refreshed once you return to your desk.
