If you are an entrepreneur, tamang timing para sayo ito. One of the biggest struggles I personally experienced was that I cannot focus on what I am doing for my business,

there’s a lot of distractions. Ang kailangan mo ngayon is  i- check ano ba yung mga bagay na nakakadistract sayo while you are working?

Ano ba yung mga bagay na ginagawa mo na nakakadistract sayo para hindi ka maging productive?

Kung na- determined mo na, let’s find out the strategies on how to avoid distractions from consuming your life. 

#1 DEEP WORK PRINCIPLE( PHONE OFF FOR 3 HOURS )

As I mention sa previous blog ko, if you did not read it yet, you can visit it here later Essential Habits.

You need to have a deep work principle, and kailangan ipractice mo sya everyday so that you can totally have your focus with your working hours.

Always start your day with 3 hours of an uninterrupted block of work. I recommend that you start early in the morning from 6 am to 9 am kung saan you have a better focus and fresh ka pa.

Or maybe may mga kasama ka sa bahay, lalo na kung may mga bata. So much better na magtrabaho ka kapag tulog pa sila.

And also alam mo ba na 90 percent ng tao sa ating timezone ay tulog pa ng ganoong oras?

Another thing inside your deep work, dapat NO EMAILS, NO PHONE, NO ONE KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR.

Make sure n malinis ang iyong desk, only with your laptop or PC na gagamitin mo. Kapag nagawa mo to, CONGRATULATION! You did your work done!

So this is the first tip on how to avoid distractions as an entrepreneur.

#2 ELIMINATE THE SOURCE OF THE DISTRACTION

Number one source of distractions is our mobile phones. Alam ko na ang hirap pigilan ang sarili na hindi tumingin sa mga social media platforms, like Facebook and Instagram.

I suggest that you put it away, maybe in some place na hindi mo makikita ang mga notification, chat, DMs, emails, and calls.

Or you can set it on airplane mode or better to turn it off for 3 hours. When you eliminate the source of distraction, you gonna have so much more time back.

I guarantee that matatapos mo yung activity na ginagawa mo.

#3 BLOCK OUT TIME FOR END OF THE DAY FUN ACTIVITIES

Most people tend to use slow times in the workday. When there is no so much work, or hindi gaanong busy.

What most people do is checking social media, have a conversation with someone (chitchat) and watching a short video on youtube.

Those are some distractions na isinisingit mo kaya hindi ka nakakatapos ng mga activities na dapat tapos mo na sa loob ng working hours na yon.

What if kung gawin mo sya 30 minutes or 60 minutes at the end of the day of your working?

Once you are already done with the most important things. Sounds good? Isipin mo sya as a reward after mo matapos yung all day hard work mo.

Block out time for the end of the day not in the beginning or middle of the day na hindi mo pa natatapos ang dapat mong tapusin. 

#4 GET OUTSIDE

Hindi masama na lumabas and have some walks for 10 to 15 minutes. Tumayo ka, have some little walks sa street nyo while having your break “Meryenda time”.

At alam mo ba na may mag side effects din sa kalusugan yung matagal na pag upo sa harap ng computer?

Nowadays ito ang problema din ng mga nagwowork from home.Sumasakit ang likod, and other parts ng katawan.

And it causes distraction din sa trabaho mo. So doing physical activities will help you burn calories and decreased your blood sugar.

Get outside, do some stretching, get some fresh air and take some time. That’s how to avoid distractions.

#5 REMIND YOURSELF WHY YOU’RE DOING YOU’RE DOING

How to avoid distractions

Remind yourself bakit ginagawa mo yung bagay na ginagawa mo ngayon? How bad do you want to succeed?

If you are really serious na maging successful sa isang bagay or bilang isang entrepreneur, kailangan mo i- eliminate yung mga distractions para magtagumpay ka.

If you are building a business that can impact other peoples lives, hindi mo ipapagpapalit yung precious time mo na alam mo na makakatulong sa kanila.

If your goal is big enough, your focus will always win over your distractions. My last tip sayo on how to avoid distractions is always to remind yourself why you’re doing what you’re doing.

As I always teach people to have a clear FOCUS on their goal. 

Thats all for today and I hope na may natutunan ka na naman sa blog na ito.
