Hello, friends! It's been an interesting week for me, which I address at the start of the episode. From there, I share with you a previous episode of the show that I wanted to make sure that you've heard! This is all about staying focused. It's a great episode for anyone that might struggle with ADHD or simply has trouble concentrating from time to time. Here are the tips I cover:

1. Limit distractions
2. Adjust your space - physical and digital
3. Do NOT multitask
4. Practice mindfulness meditation frequently
5. Journal/Plan every day
6. Check your planner at least 3x per day
7. Set yourself up with an outline before leaving a task
8. Keep a notebook nearby for impulsive thoughts that can wait
9. Force yourself to prioritize
10. If you take it out, put it back
11. Don't procrastinate - if it takes less than a minute do it (unless you're in the middle of something else)
12. Keep a place for your small things
13. Make a mise en place for your workplaces
14. Use neutral inputs to satisfy your attention hunger (white noise etc)
15. Take breaks for movement
16. Abort when you're in to deep
17. Work in shifts
18. Don't use your partner as a coach
19. Use the solution that works, whether it's perfect or not
20. Study yourself
