A QUICK TIP to Gain LASER FOCUS!

So one thing you're taught as a pitcher is the art of looking away from the target so you can refocus on the catcher's mitt so you can be accurate. Because if you're pitching and you're constantly staring at that catcher's mitt, it's easy to let your vision get blurred, your focus get blurred, and that can be the difference of 6 inches. If you miss your target by just 6 inches, it can be the difference between a grind ground ball, double play and a home run. So one trick I used as a pitcher to make sure that I could take my focus or my eyes off the mitt for a split second is every time I would come out to the pitcher's mount each inning, I would go about 45 degrees from the pitcher's rubber and I would draw an X in the dirt so that when I would go in my wind up for a split second, I would look down at that X in the dirt. That split second gave me the opportunity to look away from the catcher's mitt. And when I came back, my eyes were refocused. I had laser focus back on that catcher's mitt so I could be accurate. Why do I share that? Because you're working from home right now, and it's easy to lose your focus if you're not used to working home. Especially.

You'Re trying, you're sitting at your desk, you're trying to get a lot done throughout the day, but you, you just keep working, working and working, and you keep losing your focus throughout the day and you're not productive. So my advice is give yourself the space to take breaks the mind can't work and focus on something for more than 90 minutes anyways. So make sure throughout the day you're taking those 5, 10, 15 minute breaks so that when you come back to your desk, you're focused, you're laser focused at what you're trying to get done. And I promise, if you do that, if you take your mind or your focus off your work for a split second, you'll come back a heck of a lot more focused and be a lot more productive each and every day.
