I really admire Russell Brunson. I remember finding his content back in 2010 and joining his Dotcom Secrets X program. Waaay before clickfunnels.  

He put out a video recently talking about how having ADHD can be a super power as long as you harness it.  I’ve been struggling to focus lately and thought I’d give his tips a shot.

In case you missed the video here it is:

I set a deadline

This sort of worked. I set my deadline, then got distracted filling up my bird feeders.

Later though I reset a deadline and finished one of the projects I’d set out to do.  Baby steps, right?

I kept my hands busy

This image is a placeholder till I take one of the actual thing.

Normally I sit down to do work, and I instantly want to get up to do something else. I don’t even realize it!  One time I had a job to get done, and next thing I knew I was in the back yard cutting wild mushrooms and posting pictures in a mushroom identification group on Facebook (soooo frustrated with myself)

Having something to keep my hands busy in the moments I wasn’t typing was almost soothing to my brain and kept me in one spot so I didn’t wander off to do another non-sensical task. Seriously if you know, you know. 

Conclusion

This was only 2 of the 5 tips Russell gives, but it helped!

What I’m going to do now?

I’m going to restart a meditation practice. I believe it’s the best way to practice focus.  More posts about this to come…
