What if the main reason you don't reach your goals is simply because you keep getting distracted? And what if there's a simple, practical solution to this problem?

In this video, I delve into the concept of achieving goals through sustained attention. Whether aiming for major life changes like a career switch or smaller goals like improving fitness, the key is to maintain focus over time. I discuss how modern distractions like social media can impede progress and propose solutions like a dopamine detox. The highlight of the video is the introduction of themed journaling—a practice where you write daily about a single theme related to your goal, helping you stay focused and accountable. I also share links to other resources and a course on introspective writing to support your journey.
