We are easily distracted
Very often, on a daily basis, there is something that grabs our attention. To ignore the numerous distractions is not easy, especially given smartphones with their irritating notifications, plus news, social media and calls from our family and friends.
It may be almost impossible to stay focused on your purpose and your goals. You must be selective. The truth is that it is you who has control over certain aspects of your days. Prioritise. Think about when you work best. Are you most efficient early in the morning, or at night? Accept the way you are and stick to it. Find your own way to minimise distractions. This is the advice of the addicted2success.com website.
We don’t believe in ourselves
Our experiences – especially early childhood memories – affect us to a great extent. A role in our self-confidence is also played by our genes, the culture we have been brought up in and other life circumstances. We cannot alter these experiences and we cannot erase our past. However, we can still change our thoughts.
How to do that? You need to start by finding out more about yourself. Then build a healthy support system which can help you overcome your downs. At the same time, try to reflect on your thoughts and reactions. Understand your own emotions so as to understand yourself better.
We are afraid of failing
Do you fear failure? Most people do. By reducing unnecessary fear, you open up possibilities you had never thought about. With your newly found faith in yourselves, you may turn your inner dialogue into more positive and confident self-talk.
