Hyperfocus

By kevin on 08 January 2012

This week I've begun adopting some new techniques and strategies to improve my overall effectiveness and diminish my increasing dissatisfaction with my overall accomplishments. My entire life I've been an ADD case of bouncing project to project, not finishing anything and continually starting new ones. This week, I'm putting an end to it and I'm going to get focused and dedicated! So I've got a million interests and I devote little bits of time here and there to them when it's convenient. I find myself feeling buried and upset at my lack of perceivable progress in each of these endeavors. As I get more buried I feel more and more discouraged and grow weary to get anything done. This week is the start of a new year and a start to doing things more focused and that means consciously back burning loads of stuff and just focusing on what I can do for now. Japanese, guitar, surfing, ap2c, g3, jword, tagalog, martial arts... gimme a greak, who can tackle all that? I've got a job.

So 1st order of business for January is to get Jword done. Thats it, it's my only task, nothing else, get it launched, get happy with it and move on. Just today, I conquered all my Jword todos and it's almost launch ready. I started that like 6 months ago, and in a week of focused time, it's now ready to go. I have a laundry list of things I want to add to it, and I'll get them done this month, but that's all I'm going to do.

Then South America... probably surfing (perhaps guitar as well) will be the order of business for those months.

Then maybe Japan for awhile and really study hard and make some genuine improvement on that.

Not sure where I'm headed after that, but I'm driving myself guilty with these unfinished projects/goals, this seems to be the only way to get them done.

2012 is going to be the year of getting things done 1 at a time. HYPERFOCUS engaged!
