Lacking focus lately, maybe a touch of AD, but I choose leave out the last D because I don’t believe I have a disorder. I have a life and I believe that being annoyingly distracted is a normal part of life; they key is not to let it last.

We might have lost focus due to taking care of other responsibilities, or through just take time out from the daily grind; sort of goofing off and doing what we please – that’s all perfectly fine. When you lose focus though, be sure you don’t become careless; keep at least a light grasp on that which is important.

We must from time to time reel ourselves in, settle down, quiet the mind and body and refocus our efforts and find direction again. Finding and following a new direction is equally important because things change every day; what worked yesterday might not necessarily work today.

Losing focus can simply be a mini mind and body vacation. When this happens, perhaps it’s your body and mind telling you it needs a break.

Give yourself that “time off”, but don’t allow it to continue indefinitely or for so long that it begins to cause more serious issues such as job loss, client loss, spousal disputes and family neglect. Take care of what you need while maintaining responsibility.
