Are you staying focused?


If you are a true entrepreneur this is probably a difficult task for you. Entrepreneurs are creative, always coming up with new ideas and can easily drift off in a new direction.

They can often see the big picture but find it hard to stay on the road to reach success. If this sounds like you don't fret, you are not alone. Try one or all of these three steps to stay on track.


1.Spend a few minutes a day in meditation. This will take some work at first if you are not used to meditating. Start by focusing your mind for 2 or 3 minutes then gradually work up to 15. Make it a game. How long can you stay focused.



2.Keep a special journal for new ideas. Write them down and say to yourself, "This is for later. Right now I choose to stay with they plan I have already started.



3.Hire a coach or find a mentor to hold you accountable. Working with someone who knows your goals will help you to stay on the path to success. It's the same reason that people have success with weight watchers or by hiring a personal trainer to help them with their weight goals. Entrepreneurs are often working from home and need that connection and accountability that a coach or mentor can offer.
