Learn to Complete Tasks Before Beginning New Tasks

By Daniel Dessinger · Monday, March 3rd, 2008

Some of the hardest lessons to learn are the easiest to describe. I’ve returned to my “brain guy” to get my brain “zapped” a few more times this week. It’s been a year, and the initial sessions went so well that I thought I should see what a few more might do.

Brain zapping is an art form as well as a science. It’s technical term is “neurofeedback”, but that doesn’t sound nearly as dramatic and life altering as “brain zapping.”

No matter. The important thing is that my brain is being optimized. It is more efficient and effective in executing its processes than it was before the zapping began. The latest EEG test shows that I have a very active right hemisphere. There is an abundance of signals there, but I need to be able to resolve those thoughts and ideas rather than continually bounce them around inside my head.

Yay for the brain zapper! It sounds hokey or intimidating to some people I tell. That’s okay. The point is that I have many more opportunities available to me now because I am not getting in my own way like I used to. I am much better at finishing tasks than I used to, and I expect to be even better off after my next four sessions this week.

The goal is to resolve some of my creative ideas before hatching too many new ones. For example, I own somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 domain names. Of those 40, I have created some 10 or more blogs. The rest of the domains are just sitting there collecting dust. Rather than continue trying to blog on 10 websites sporadically, I am getting one website staffed with bloggers so that it virtually runs itself. Once that is accomplished, I will move on to blog #2 and repeat most of the same stages. Eventually, I will have 5-10 blog websites staffed with bloggers who love what they do. I will make a little bit of money from the ads on each site, and that will enable me to either sell them off for a profit or to enhance them even further to increase profit and pay my writers something for their time.

All the great ideas will have to wait, including the ever elusive novel. One thing at a time. Conquer one hill, then take the next. And in the end, you have conquered a countryside. And all because the brain zapping has enabled me to think clearly enough to see the benefit of seeing a project through to completion rather than flitting from excitement to excitement as I did for many years prior.

Yay, brain zapping!
