HOW TO STAY FOCUSED AT THE TASK AT HAND

Almost all of us occasionally wander from the task at hand.  To some; it's just a momentary lapse and they are back on track. But if staying on task is more than an occasional problem, try some of the following tips.

FOCUS ON THE TASK AT HAND

It’s important to remember that focusing on the task at hand doesn’t mean that nothing else will get done; it simply means you are reserving a special amount of time to accomplish the most important task, before moving onto the other tasks.

GENERAL GUIDE

We learn through mistakes but it doesn’t mean that you should go through all mistakes in order to learn.  It is good to learn also by the mistakes of others and through guidance from people who are there to protect us.  Life is a journey, take one step at a time.

HOW TO HANDLE PEER PRESSURE

Peer pressure can be a very strong force to overcome and before you realize you will be sailing in the same boat with them.  This is where your values have to be put in place but first, you need to belief in yourself before you can be able to handle the negative pressure. 

PEER PRESSURE

Has one of your friends ever influenced you to doing something that you didn’t feel like doing? Or even tried doing something just because you saw others do and thought it could be nice to try too? Then that is definitely peer pressure.   Peers are people in your age group.  As you grow older, you'll be faced with some challenging decisions.  Some of them may not have a clear right or wrong answer — like should you play badminton or table tennis or even soccer.  But others will involve serious moral questions, like whether to try cigarettes or lie to your parents.

THE RIGHT CONDUCT

Morality is all about behaviors; it is conformity to the rules of right conduct. It all comes back to how you conduct yourself around people who know you and those who don’t know you.  Are you a two sided person or do you maintain the same behavior no matter where you are?  We all make mistakes; but do you accept to be corrected when you are wrong or even do you listen to advice when someone is trying to help you?
