Episode description

Do you ever feel like the day just got away from you and feel even more frustrated and overwhelmed than you did the day before?

 

Distractions could be the culprit.

 

When you are constantly being driven by distractions it feels like you are the adorable dog named Doug in the 2009 Disney movie “Up”.  Whenever Doug saw a squirrel, regardless of what he was chasing, he’d immediately be distracted and go after the squirrel.

 

Your “squirrel” is usually anything new because new always seems better.  Whether it’s a new book, a new exercise routine or a new outfit from online shopping website you were looking at, you can be driven to distraction and chasing squirrels in your professional and personal life all day long. 

 

This week I’m going to discuss why you get distracted and how to get back on track.
