The successful warrior is the average man, with laser-like focus.

— Bruce Lee —

  Focus is a huge difference maker and can be enhanced by simply removing from your mind everything that doesn’t add to and/or align with your life vision.

Fail Forward

Don’t dwell on what went wrong. Instead, focus on what to do next. Spend your energies on moving forward, toward finding the answer.

— Denis Waitley —

  We all fail and fall short of our goals from time to time but it is a choice on what we do with our shortfalls and failures.  I always strive to fail forward.  Having a mindset of failing forward forces me to keep my eyes focused ahead of me instead of behind me. Do…

It is wise to direct your anger towards problems-not people; to focus your energies on answers-not excuses.

— William Arthur Ward —

  Profound and powerful words Mr. Ward… In all situations today, I know if I’m not the problem there is no solution. Matthew 6:9-13, “Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our…

Present Focus

I finally learned to live in the present and focus only on what I want rather than what I don’t want.

— Darren L. Johnson —

  Being able to focus on the present is critical.  The devil lives in the past, future and anything else he can make us anxious about in order to drain our energy.  God is with us in the very moment.  Huge dividends in the form of peace, joy and love are created when we can…

The most powerful focus-protecting word that a human being needs to carry in his or her toolbox at all times is 'NO'.

Control and Focus

The biggest waste of focus is focusing on people, places and things you have no control over and therefore cannot change. Focus on changing you.

— Jay Meyer —

  How often do you find yourself wasting time on things you have no control over? Acceptance is the key to my focus these days. What do you need to accept? When faced with a situation you have no control over and the situation is driving you crazy, there are three options: Change the way…
