DEal with Distractions

Anticipate distractions that could get in the way of achieving your daily goals, whether that’s the ever-pinging notifications on your phone or your kids treating you as a taxi service. “Explain to your family that for an hour they need to let you focus on whatever you’re trying to achieve,” says Price.

Most of us say we’re just too busy to focus on

our goals. But Price isn’t buying it: “Do a little bit each day – if you can’t manage an hour, do 30 minutes, if you can’t do 30 minutes, do 15.”
