Hi guys, been thinking for a while, it is common that there are times, or for some most of the times spending with our daily work in office, we feel that our focus is starting to lose its track to our goal. And if it happens, it takes time to refocus to what you're doing since you're starting to feel not interested anymore to your work. How about you guys, what is your way to keep on track and keep your focus and mind to your daily goal in your work?

Hi mark! Take break from time to time. Sometimes, doing the same thing everyday might cause us to lose interest in our job. When you leave the office in the afternoon, leave it to that interesting phase, so that when you come back the next morning, you will be excited to go back to your table to finish you work. Well, then if those two things doesn't work, remember the time when you are just looking for the job. I'm sure this will work. Have a great day!

Hello.. Thank you for your advice. You're right, and I'm just hoping for a vacation, but it's not yet possible. I'm just looking forward on that day to be free again. lol! To do everything I missed to do. Yes, I remember when I'm just starting, I was so excited, lot of plans in work but suddenly, after a straight 1 year and few months, I'm a little losing my track, maybe work break will help. =) Thanks and have a great day too..

I always get a lot of distraction at work. I always have to deal with how to go back to work especially if my fingers and my mind would just want to watch movies and be on mylot or play games. :D So what i did just yesterday was to close my phone and i refused to log in to the internet explorer so i won't be tempted to be on mylot and not start working. i kept think i need to focus and finish this so i can get back to the games and mylot easily and in soonest time.

If this thing happens. I stop for several minutes to clear my thoughts and then shake my head and hope that I could refocus myself into what i am doing. Crazy right? But that is really how I do it.

I know sometimes many of us loose focus or interest on our work. Sometimes I take vacation, going for refreshing my mind. When Im still loose I will say to myself that I have to focus back to work because I don't want to loose my income source, this work is important for me and my family.

When this happens, I would usually ask for a couple of days' off just to relax and have some little RnR. I return to the office feeling refreshed and re-energized. Sometimes all it takes is for me to have a short break from the daily grind so I can re-focus again and be thankful of my job no matter how stressful it may be.

Hey,as for me,I get two ideas to help me focous on the work. 1.If i like the job,i will keep doing it until the rest is necessary.It's happy to do what you like. 2.If i don't like the task but i have to do,I will spend at most half a hour on it. good luck
