The Power Of "Focus"

by LastingLifeSuccess
7 replies
We are all witness to the effect our attention has on anything it is focused on. This is not a small reach. When I discover enough interest in a particular thing I will begin to focus upon it with my undivided attention.

Before long what ever it was I had affixed my attention on will always undergo a positive transformation. The thing, the project, the relationship will literally change before the eyes of the attendee. (the one attending to such work)

If your focus is not as powerful or concentrated as you would like, continue applying your attention to what ever project you happen to be working on. Then monitor your progress paying attention to what is at hand and is moving it to change. Also, . . . practice.

    I find that my focus is often divided. The main reason for this is negativity towards my ability to be successful at the thing I've decided to focus on. Do you/have you experienced this? How do you set your mind to be focused without doubt?

      Annette,
      For me it is an inherent factor of my makeup. As I assess the object focused on I am continually making judgements as to the viability of what is being investigated or produced.

      I can tell if I'm out of focus as soon as I notice the continuity of my perceptions on the project are no longer continuous. This becomes my recognition of lost focus and back at it I go again.

      Hope this helps. It's all rather abstract for words, sort of.

      LLS

      PS The short answer is I "do" lose focus and often. The saving grace is the rapid observation of the loss so rapid recovery back to focused attention can be easily achieved.

    People who can really focus well are really gifted!
    With so many ever increasing distractions in today's world, it really needs some good discipline to focus! One of the important reason why we loose focus is boredom to concentrate on same thing for longer time. We feel we might be loosing out on something else that could be much interesting or worth while.. . Is this not related to our passions or strong emotional urges ? Don't we like to focus on the things our nature likes..

    The things we push our self to focus are things that matter most for our security like "money, career, health and relations". But focus on the right cause and good sense of direction can really make a big difference in a person's life !

      Sometimes there are destrictions or dificulties, because of which people can't feel the Power of Focusing.

      The Power of focus works really best, if someone is passionate on the work he or she does.

        The quality of our lives is determined by the things we focus in life. When we wake up in the morning and we focus on all the negative things in our lives, we will have a miserable day. If on the other hand we focus in all the positive things in our lives , we will have a great day.

    Focus is important, I use the 80/20 rule to make my time more effective. It's easy to get spread out and not get much done.

    Very well said. That's why I don't multitask anymore. The key to succeeding in one task after another is to focus one at a time.
