Focus, melahsan, FOCUS!

I think my entire life my issue has been focus. In school I would day dream. After school I wanted to watch TV when I should be doing my homework. In the streets and on the train, I was either deeply engaged in my thoughts or deeply into the movements and actions of other people. I was once so entranced in the music I was listening to that when i arrived at my destination, someone who had been walking across the street from me told me that they had been yelling at me and I NEVER heard them ...

I have been able to focus. To tune things and people out around me, a sort of tunnel vision effect. I was once so entranced watching TV and folding laundry that my mother yelling at me from the other end of the apartment got mad that i NEVER heard her.. You called me ?? when?

So maybe i shouldn't say that my issue is lack of focus. I have the ability to focus to intently that normal everyday things I should hear or see, I don't.

So how do i apply this theory to my goals, dreams and aspirations?

How do i get myself to focus so intently on my writing that I get my shit done without interruption? How do i get myself to complete 2 verses and a chorus and perhaps a hook and then take my arse to the studio to get my songwriting demo completed? How do i get the focus to tune out the world around me so that i can create an actual plan for my life and maybe even complete the last year of this BS degree.. Which is a lot of BS in itself.. but stilll HOW! ???!?!? #$#@$@ ??

ok.. i'm calm now.. but if anyone of you who reads this has the answer.. drop me a line. leave me a comment, send me an email.. I'm open for suggestions.

I think my issue in life is.. I have so many things that i want to do, I don't know which one to do first. I write, I sing, I take pictures, I type 70wpm, I went to massage school, I love music, have a good eye and ear for whats good, I make bodycare products (no lie bodywash, lotion, soap, body spray it's sick!). I once wanted to either work in PR or A&R and do music journalism. I wanted a label. I wanted to sing or at least sing background (have you ever seen Anthony Hamiltons background! they have so much damn fun!!) I wanted to write a novel (still do) want a songwriting deal, want to hear my good shit on the radio.

The themes are the same. Happines, music and writing. With some extra creative things thrown in. But the basics are the same. Do i need a life coach???

this is what's on my mind lately. Do i need a big wheel that says choose this now.. Work on it. Make it work. NEXT!

The thing is.. there is a way to do all of this.. I just haven't figured it out.

Going walking.. cuz.. i've focused on my gut this morning and no matter what the man who love me says... If i can't fit into my pants.. we are having a PROBLEM!!!

then i need to join the Y ... later yall.. focusing on my right and left heading to the park...

i think us creative types never have one thing we're working on... I'm working on about 5 screenplays in my head right this.....second... the issue is then how do we do it all, successfully, I don't know that we can.... I pray we do, we got a lot of knowledge to spread among the masses....
