Focusing on what you are presently doing is vital to safety and productivity. Do not let anything else get in your way or distract you.
Some tips for keeping focused could include:
- Keep your work area clean and neat.
- During hazardous operations, keep extraneous chit-chat to a minimum.
- Use prescribed safety gear.
- Read through the procedures as a group before starting
- Ensure everyone involved is up to date with procedures and is physically and mentally up to the work.
- Ensure all tools and other needed supplies are in good working order.
- After completing the job, discuss any problems and what went well during the procedure.

A retired Air Force Master Sergeant, Mike used to lay in bed at night and worry about what would happen if his plant closed or found himself without a job. One day his plant closed. Rather than panic and hysteria (OK, maybe a little) Mike found himself carried away on the adventure of his life. Mike started with the best job he ever had working at Home Depot. He spent 8 years working with job seekers at a local workforce center, helping them to find employment. He then started his own company developing courses, writing books and urging others to follow their own paths into the future.
Mike holds a Master of Arts in Adult Education and Training and a Bachelor of Business Management, earned through the University of Phoenix and an AAS degree in Electronics Systems Technology from the Community College of the Air Force. Mike is a member of the Delta Mu Delta Business Honor Society.
