#197: How To Focus On 'One Thing'

In a world full of shiny objects.

I have been suffering from ‘shiny object syndrome’ for a long time now.

I get easily lured by the next big thing, the next good idea, the next course, the next platform. I am writing on three platforms, building audience on each one of them separately, writing and publishing books, sketching, meditating, building a ghostwriting business and creating educational email courses for my clients.

But here is the problem, I am not a superwoman.

I can excel at one of these activities (any one for that matter) but not at all of them simultaneously. Having numerous concurrent goals means I end up being average at everything. Scrambling between tasks leads to lost time and mental energy leading to loss of creativity and unnecessary stress. I’m afraid that my motivation will eventually wane, leaving me disappointed.

Something has to change.
