(upbeat music) - Hello, and welcome to the Accountability Coach podcast. We will discuss topics, ideas, questions, and issues related to having a totally balanced and successful life. This is Ann Vakrak. Today we're going to talk about do you know where your focus is taking you? As an entrepreneur, you know the importance of focus and how it directly affects your success for better or worse. This is most evident when applied to your goals. The more focused you are, the more precise your actions can be, getting you closer to your goals much faster. But did you know there are different levels of focus? The level which you are focused on will determine where you're going. So the question is, do you know where your focus is taking you? We might've discussed this before. And while I suggest that focusing on a single task at any one time is ideal, I'm not about to introduce an exception to that rule. The exception applies to the focus you place on your short-term and long-term goals. As I might've mentioned before, there are different levels of focus. They are current, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and life. Unfortunately, when it comes to goals, having too much focus on short-term goals can cause short-sightedness. Focusing only on your short-term goals means that your yearly or life goals may never get the focus that they deserve or need. Let's explore the different levels of focus. Immediate focus, the most basic form of focus, and the goals that are immediately in play. In the moment, focus on useful or getting from step A to step B, from B to C, and so on. As an entrepreneur, this is an important tool to use when completing complex tasks that must be broken down into smaller pieces. Daily focus, the goals for the day. These goals range from the time you wake up to the time you go to bed and could be personal and/or professional achievements. Your daily focus should support your monthly focus. Try to have at least one powerful daily focus each day, something that will visibly and immediately have a positive impact on you achieving your goals. Monthly focus, the short-term goals for the month. These should always support other short-term goals six-month and yearly, as well as long-term goals. Choose one powerful monthly focus for each month of the year and be sure your daily focus supports monthly achievements. Yearly focus, the goals to be achieved within one calendar year. Your yearly focus should contain somewhat achievable and stretch goals, as well as stepping stones to longer-term goals and your overall purpose in life. Overall life focus, this is more about overall purpose in life or the big picture. This is about focusing on who you want to be, what you want to experience, and your core values. To achieve all the goals you have set for yourself, you must use all levels of focus. The reason being, each step you take, however small, directly affects your ability to achieve your life goals. When you are consciously aware of all levels of focus, you can determine which steps will support your goals and avoid the steps that do not. Before you apply this information to your life, take some time to write down your goals. Start with your life focus and then work your way backwards, including each level of focus until you reach your daily focus. You should want to start with your life focus so that you can start with the big picture. From there, you can break down your focus into your yearly, monthly, and then daily focus and goals. Each night before you go to bed, write down your daily focus for the following day. You may want to buy a small notebook or keep a, perhaps a line tablet in your daily planner so you always have it on you, even if you're on the road. To help you get started, go to www.accountabilitycoach.com and complete your Wheel of Life and the quality of life enhancer exercise. Update your quality of life enhancer exercise on a regular basis and enjoy the benefits from doing that. Feel free to share these complimentary exercises with others that you know who you think will get value from them. Here's an important note. If your goals are in conflict, nothing will be achieved. All short-term goals should support other short-term goals as well as long-term goals. Get clear on what you really want to achieve over a lifetime and then break it down into smaller steps that can be achieved yearly, monthly, and daily. In an effort to encourage you to achieve your goals easier and faster, leave the past where it belongs in the past. It's tempting to replay those old scenarios that you would change if you had a second chance, but focusing on the past takes away valuable energy and should be used for the present and the future. Take the lessons you've learned from past experiences and apply them to your successes. You can't change the past, so there's no need to dwell on it. Easier said than done and yet, good to keep in mind. Remember, your energy will always go in the direction of your focus, so keep it where you can make some real changes in the present and the future. Focus on what you really want in life and work towards achieving those things so you can fulfill everything you want in life. My hope for our time together is that you got some value and an idea or two that will help you be even more successful, personally and professionally.
