10 ways to stay on track with your singing with Stacey Jane THE VOICE COACH

It can be tough to stay focused in a world that is constantly buzzing with distractions.

From the moment we wake up until the time we go to bed, there are countless things vying for our attention. For creatives, this can be especially challenging. It's hard to stay focused when your mind is constantly jumping from one thing to another.

Here are 10 ways to help you stay on track with your singing and help you stay aligned on your vocal journey.

1. Set aside designated times for practice. Whether it's an hour before work, during your lunch break, or in the evening, try to carve out specific periods of time when you can focus on your creative projects without being interrupted.

2. Eliminate constant notifications from social media and other apps. Constant notifications can serve as a major distraction, so turn off any notifications that are not absolutely necessary.

3. Create a focused practice space. Keep it tidy and organised

4. Turn off your phone or keep it out of sight when you're working on a project. This will prevent you from getting distracted by notifications and checking your messages constantly.

5. Prioritize your tasks so you can focus on the things that matter most. If there are several projects that need your attention, try to rank them in terms of importance so you can focus on what's important first

6. Take frequent breaks to refresh your mind. Spending too much time on a song can actually make it harder to focus, so take short breaks every hour or two to give yourself some time away from your music.

7. Stay organized and focused with the help of productivity tools like task lists, calendar reminders, and timers. These tools can help you stay on track and stay focused on the task at hand.

8. Train your mind to resist distractions. One way to do this is through mindfulness meditation, which can help you focus more easily on your work when distractions arise.

9. Connect and work with like-minded creatives who can serve as a source of inspiration and support. Surrounding yourself with others who are working toward similar goals can make it easier to stay focused and get things done.

10. Remember that progress takes time, and try not to beat yourself up when you don't meet your goals right away. It can take some time to develop the habits and mindset needed for laser focus, but with practice and persistence, you can do it!

So if you're looking for ways to decrease distractions and create a laser focused mind for your creative pursuits and singing, try some of the tips above.

With practice and persistence, you can stay focused on your singing no matter what's going on around you!
