How I Keep Myself Ridiculously Focused
Working towards my goals, in a world full of distractions
Just like using a magnifying glass to focus the power of the Sun into a single spot on a pile of hay, with enough perseverance and determination, you might just be able to ignite a fire. Conversely, if you keep shifting the magnifying glass around, you wouldn’t find much success in the endeavour and end up frustrated and wondering: “This is utter nonsense! It’s just not possible to start a fire this way!”
The fact is, science has proven that there is no fault with the magnifying glass nor the Sun — so the only likely outcome is that you didn’t commit to focusing the ray long enough to start the fire.
The same reasoning can be applied to our daily lives, we need to give it our all and attention (very much like focusing using the magnifying glass) on milestones and aspirations we want to achieve. To achieve this our thoughts and determination have to be focused, our direction be focused and even our efforts focused.
