Focus

FileMaker is a great business productivity tool.  But if you are to make the most of it for you and your client, you need to be more aware of what goes on in business day-to-day, and learn what is important to your client.  You also need to keep yourself on focused and on course.

Do you get trapped in thought patterns and feelings that consume your time and energy?  Don’t worry, it’s pretty common–more so than you realize.  The good news:  it’s something you can change with this simple exercise. Do this 15 Second Attitude Adjustment as necessary throughout the day:

1. What am I thinking?
2. What am I saying?
3. What am I feeling?
4. What am I doing?
5. What do I need to do to (a-d) to improve my attitude.

That’s all there is too it.  Just making yourself aware of your thoughts and actions on a routine basis and taking action when necessary is a powerful way to keep yourself on your chosen course.

I found it best to print this out and post it somewhere conspicuous as a reminder.
