Find the time that was really matter for yourself...

To keep your attention in the right place it is essential to remind yourself every day of what is truly most important to you.
Figure out how you can prevent those things from distracting you. It could be by:

• Shutting the door to your office.
• Putting your phone on silent mode.
• Having notifications for your email shut off.

The answer could for instance be your smart phone, TV-shows you just watch out of routine and not because you like them very much and bringing your work back home.Reduce the number of blogs, newsletters, magazines, book clubs, podcasts, TV-shows etc. you follow. Just keep the ones you are really getting something out of.

Write down a list of the social activities you are involved in after college or work. Maybe you are involved in a club or an activity that it is not as fun or rewarding as it used to be. Maybe you want to rearrange your priorities a bit to focus on something else in 2016.

Really question and reconsider your own daily and weekly habits regularly instead of moving along in the same old tracks just because it is what you usually do.

Perhaps you would like to read more while riding the train or while waiting for a meeting to start. 
Even if you only have 20 minutes of commuting time each day you still have a many, many hours in a year that you may want to, at least partly, use in a new way.
