Focus
I have been having a lot of trouble focusing lately. I’ve been getting enough sleep and eating, so I know it’s not a health thing. I’m not really sure why, but my best guess would be boredom. I’ve noticed it the most at work as it has affected my performance (although today seemed better, which is funny because I was supposed to be off today), but it also affects every other aspect of my life. My twitter feed has gone stale, my reading has slowed to a halt, and my conversations have become difficult to hold. Even as I write this I’m having trouble focusing on what I’m doing and keeping my train of thought on course. I think it’s because I’m getting restless with the stalemate my life is in right now. I need to do something to progress.
I’ve been thinking this past week of trying to buy a house. I don’t want to live in this area forever, but a house would be a good investment. I have good credit and, even with no money down, I could get a mortgage for less than what I’m paying a month in rent. My lease is up here in April so, if I start now, I might be able to get in a place by then…maybe. Anyway, this is off subject.
I think another reason why I’m so unfocused lately is because I have nothing to focus on. I have no large career goals, no dating prospects, no vacation or other type of plans beside this very vague house-buying plan I’ve recently come up with. I need to find something to aim toward. I wanted to make 2012 a year of improvement, but I’m having trouble getting moving. Like, really moving.
