People without focus are easily distracted, and they are often disorganized and forgetful. They may appear confused, flustered, and uncertain.

Focus is a key factor in personal and vocational success. Focus helps us to clarify and commit to goals, which leads to better planning and vision for our personal and professional development.

Enemies of Focus:

  • OVERTHINKING – Most issues are not as big as our minds make them. We can destroy our focus by overthinking a manageable situation.
  • DIVIDED ATTENTION – Our attention is often divided between multiple responsibilities, conflicting desires, and an endless list of choices.
  • MEDDLING – When we make ourselves unnecessarily busy with other peoples’ matters, we will be unable to focus on our own responsibilities and opportunities.
