Applying focus to everyday life is one of the most important factors towards achieving what a person desires or requires. It doesn't simply relate to a business or work requirement, but permeates through every aspect of life; If applied correctly, with diligence and consistency a person is more likely to find the success they seek be it relationship, sporting, financial, professional or personal.
Focus is a double-edged sword though.
It has the ability to sharpen skills, attitude, ambition and actions in the pursuit of the goal but also to go the other way, hold someone in place; I would say also to actually pull them backwards. Focusing on what we don't have will also give rise potential to neglect the things we do have; A counter-productive condition.
We can focus on what we do not have or focus on what we want, it's a choice. It may seem a subtle difference, however in one's journey of life it is, in fact, a fork in the road. In my humble opinion anyway. It's a choice a person makes to push forward or reside in the past, or the existing condition.
Focusing energy, and precious attitude, upon what we do not have will not provide the impetus to engage in the activities, or attitudes, to carry us forward and to furnishing ourselves with those things we desire. But focus that energy towards having the right attitudes and taking the right actions to carry us towards those goals and we begin to move closer to them.
Focus is a powerful thing, great deeds and results can be achieved through focusing energies, mindset, attitude and actions towards a goal. Being mindful of what one focuses on is the key to applying it correctly.
