The ability to stay focused is one of the most life-changing skills you can develop. If you want to make real progress in your life, your career, a side hustle, or studies, you will require this essential skill called “focus”.
With so many goals and interests pulling you in different directions, and so many distractions it can feel overwhelming to make progress on all of them. We are constantly bombarded by messages, emails, phone notifications and noise that it is very easy to lose track of what we are trying to achieve.

I’ve got a simple 3-step approach for you, and it’s called: GPS that shorts for Goals, Progress or Process, and Systems or Routines.
This is a 3-steps framework to regain focus when you are feeling overwhelmed.
And you might have heard of it before. This GPS framework was emphasized by James Clear in his book "Atomic Habits,” and it is all about focusing on the systems and progress (or process in this video) to really nail your success.
So, it is not just about the goals. Your goals are one of the components of an overall framework.
What is Focus
Before to jump in, let’s step back to better understand the meaning of the term focus. I would like to ensure that we all have in mind, the same meaning while discussing about Focus in this video.
The term "focus" has an interesting etymology. It comes from the Latin word "focus," which means "fireplace." In ancient Rome, the focus was the central point of a household, where the family gathered around the fireplace for warmth and light.
If you are like me, quite visual, close your eyes and imagine the scene happening. All gathered as a family around the focus, around this fireplace for warmth and light.
