Focus is your ability to target all your energy and mind towards a goal. to focus on something is to give that thing all you have got, devote all your time and effort towards that thing. focus can be draining and tiring and requires practise to be good at it. the more you focus on a particular task the better you get.
If you want to improve your personal life or career you have to focus on some key things in your life. you have to focus on what makes you tick or what makes you a better person and work in it. make yourself be channeled towards improving yourself in that direction so all that you do would result in success. but this would require time and energy to be spent.
When you want to focus, i would advice that you be in your comfort zone. since this requires a lot of energy and mind concentration i would want you to be mentally ready for this. also physically you have to be prepared. you have to pick a target and know this is what you want your end result to be and work towards that.

Focus
- Doing other things beside my assignments. I have tons of assignment to do but I couldn’t do them because I want to enjoy doing things I like instead. It’s frustrating because I’m not focusing on my assignments which are supposed to be my first priority compares to relaxing and playing games and reading books. Not to mention that it’s a lot so delaying it would just cause more difficulty in completing them
- Frustration comes from doing something I’m great at, but do not love to do daily. I love a varied schedule with different tasks, not the same routine. I love to be in charge, but mostly in front of people speaking, informing presenting. I loved when I was looking to get into performing arts/tv/reporter, etc..
- Getting multiple projects and not having the priority on projects frustrates me . Also assigning same project to two people and expecting both of the them to share the results, I feel it’s waste of resources. I believe in doing one project with outstanding results. Love life is confusing, dating a guy from past 6 years and now I feel like he is not the one but don’t have guts to end this relationship. I am scared where I am going to end up in life, if I end this relationship right now.
- I got frustrated with me being steady, doing nothing. I want to do a lot of things like travelling in different places with my family and friends.. I also love to cool a lot of recipes for my family. But the lack of money hinders me in doing these things. I love to make beautiful memories with my family and friends. I love to make other people happy and help them in anyway I could. Being part of someone’s happiness gives fulfillment for me.
- I had to represent my thesis project to my professors because they did not see the proper progress and evolution in the design over the past term. The thought of failure or insufficient delivery was devastating to me. The problem is that I was bogged down by external life situations and not exerting enough energy into the project because I was distracted. I was holding grudges against them and not focusing on what’s really important (my thesis mission statement).
- I have to deal with my upcoming assignments, test and presentation which is nerve-wrecking. The datelines are almost up and I have yet to complete a single assignment. It is tough and frustrating. Plus I can’t get my mind off other stuff as well which makes me divert my attention in doing unnecessary things instead of completing my assignments.
- I was given a badge that somebody lost in the cafeteria and told to write a note and drop it in the office the person shares with few people. I kept the badge in my bag saying after breakfast to write the note and drop the badge as expected. However, I forgot to follow up as required and carried the badge back home after the end of my shift. It was very frustrating when I discovered the badge in my bag at home.
- The hardest thing that has challeneged me is the fact that I lost something. I never lose anything. Just yesterday, I am in a running for the President or vice president of National Honor Society. We have a volunteer hour sheet and I misplaced mine. I almost had a meltdown. How great would it look for me to run for such an important position and I don’t even have my hour sheeet. I was furious at myself for misplacing it and so upset that tears began to form. After tearing my room apart I found it!!! I then remembered I stuck it in my History book. The relief I got after the paper made me so unbelieveably happy.
- The most frustrating thing I had to do at home in the past few days is trying to find something that I saw a couple of days ago and not remembering where I past saw it or when I put an object somewhere and it’s not there anymore and it’s frustrating because I know I’m not going crazy and I know where it was but it’s not there anymore
- The most frustrating thing I had to do in the past few days was dealing with people or situations that have already been dealt with or discussed and they are final and the reason this was frustrating is that it was distracting to me and annoying because it does not make sense at all to talk or think about it again.
- The most frustrating thing I have had to recently do would have to be juggling through my exta-curricular activities. I have to manage playing three sports right now which have practicies on the same days. Trying to figure out which means more to me is not easy, and especially when our games are on the same day. I wish things were more orderly and better organized, but im not one to give up. I can figure it out.
