In this 3rd and final part of the How To Stay Focused … theme, I want to share with you my most effective method for being energetic, focused, and on top of my game.
It’s really simple you know.
I’ll share it with you in a minute…
But before, I’d like to point out something that is obvious and yet often overlooked by so many people.
And that is that we’re constantly exposed to the influence of the society and the media. Check out the headline from yesterday’s home page of CNN Money Site:
What kind of crap is that?
I understand that people are getting laid off, and companies are downsizing, but does that mean that if you’re in your 50’s and you get laid off, that your life is over?
You’re out of luck?
Some of the other headlines were:
- Oil soars to settle above $133
- Dollar sinks as Fed forecasts weakness
- Mortgage applications drop 7.8%
- Record gas prices: 14 straight days
- Reverse mortgages: Beware the come-ons
And my favorite one -
“Consumers can’t save the economy” - Americans are too deep in debt to lead the economy into a recovery, according to a new forecast. The result: The recovery will be a bit slower.
Now, just reading this list can make you depressed, don’t you agree?
Now you might be saying, ok I don’t really read stuff like this.
Well, someone does, because it’s 50th most visited site in the world. That means that tens of thousands of people get on this site, and the first thing they see is these headlines.
