They can be small like phone notifications and emails, or large like new projects and last minute meetings. Sometimes it\u2019s just a chatty coworker. Start by determining which distractions are the biggest offenders of breaking your focus. That can be as simple as keeping a notepad handy and making a checkmark every time you lose your focus. Once you\u2019ve done that for a few days, start by writing down exactly what it was that derailed you. You\u2019ll start to see a pattern emerge, and once you\u2019re aware of it you\u2019ll be able to change your habits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Learn how to prioritize.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Just like distractions, your workload itself can be cause for losing focus. We\u2019re often faced with a mountain of work that needs to get done, and it\u2019s all important. It\u2019s easy to get overwhelmed by that and feel like you\u2019re drowning. The trick to conquering your workload is learning how to prioritize. You can do this by taking stock of all the work you need to get done, and all you need is either a spreadsheet or you can go old-school with a paper and pen. Categorize projects by deadline, then sort them. You can sort them by difficulty, time it will take to accomplish, or anything else that helps you get things under control. While it can be a daunting task at first, if you make it a daily or weekly habit, it will simply become routine. You\u2019ll learn to focus on what\u2019s most important, and in turn that ensures that you don\u2019t drop the ball on any priorities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Be respectful.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Respect goes a long way in the workplace. You need to respect yourself as well as respecting others. If you don\u2019t respect yourself, you\u2019ll project that lack of respect onto others. The best way to practice respect is by being tolerant of others. It\u2019s easy to snap to a judgement and not give things a second thought, but it\u2019s certainly not productive, nor does it make for a happy workplace. Conflict can start from a single snap judgement and causes unnecessary tension on a team. Respect that people will have differing opinions and make it a practice to start a discussion rather than an argument.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Manager\u2019s Office<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>HR &amp; Training Dept<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Stay focused.
