Hi Guys,
This is what I've come to realise about success in life; that focus is the key. The earlier you accept this fact the earlier you'll emerge successful in all your right aspirations. Failure happens when your focus is broken and you stop the pursuit. To be able to pursue effectively you must be focussed and concentratred upon achieving a singular objective per time. Focus and concentration go hand in hand. An individual with a well defined purpose and a strong focus is often unstoppable, resourceful and innovative. Focus births in you the ability to be resourceful; for the focus upon a desired objective brings to pass the means to achieve that objective. But that focus must be sustained over time. You must deliberately monitor your thinking pattern especially after you have set a goal for yourself to achieve. Can't be drifting in your thoughts and expect to achieve any goal. You must bring yourself back each time you discover that your thoughts are drifting towards that area you don't desire. Go check out every high achiever they have this habit of putting their teeth unto a prey and refuse to give up on it come rain or high water. They only watch for how they can achieve their objective faster and not to drift. Let me stop for now.

    Focus is very important, but without vision it's nothing. You can focus on the wrong things and end up nowhere. If you have an overall vision of where you're going that's different. Then you can focus on the right things while making sure you're going in the direction you desire.

      For success to become a reality, it is absolutely crucial that you believe in what you’re doing. This is easy at the beginning because you’re focused on what you stand to gain from achieving your goal. As time goes on, you may gradually forget how excited you were and start to lose that inner fire.

    Thanks for the post.

    The biggest problem starts with people not having goals or any tiny vision. It is said nearly 95% of the population have no goals.
    What then can they focus on?

    Having goals automatically brings your focus back.

    Without goals one will general drift with the current. A person without goals will join Occupy Wall Street, watch any program on TV, read anything on the doctor's waiting room, go to any party or surf the net aimlessly. And with time the habit of having no focus gets entrenched.

      goals with deadlines ... that is stuff makes you take action if your true care about your set target . Deadlines are very powerful . E.g "i am going to add new 1000 subscribers by the end of this month and i am going to do by adswaps , solo ads , guest blogging e.t.c

      I an going to invest at least 3 hours a day and hire someone full time to asssit me in achieving this "

    You are totally right, if the most creative guy is nothing without the ability to finish their work with full concentration. But on the other hand you can achieve alot if you are not creative...which one you want to be?

    THis is true. I have come to realize this after jumping from one earning online method to another. When I prove that one works, I go look for other means and in the process, I abandon the first. Should focus more.

    All start in our minds. Being focused at the lifetime level means that you should have a purpose for your life. If you can dream it, you can do it!

    If you stay focused on a particular goal it can certainly help but intent paired with action seems to be far stronger.

    Thank you for reminding me to implement my 19 minute segment strategy - focus on one thing for 19 minutes, designated with an old fashioned kitchen timer :-)

    Focus is very important. I had about 15 websites all at different stages of development and SEO ranking. I found myself working on sites at random and this led to me not making any real progress. Then I thought back to the days when I was at school and had a timetable! So I created a timetable for myself and found that I could focus 100% better on the task at hand and not get distracted!

    If an idea about another site pops into your head while working on a different one, just quickly write it down and continue your work!

    It's good sometimes to NOT put all of your eggs in one basket just in case a particular "basket" fails.

    Yes, You are right. Focus is important but to set a goal to focus is more important. Set and goal and then focus on it. It will result awesome.
