Focus Is The Key
What you focus and maintain your attention on is what manifests in your life. It matters therefore that you are conscious of what you focus your time and attention on.
Do you sometimes feel that you can do something? You do it and many other people simply look at you with awe at how you are able to do such a marvelous thing. To you, it might not be as marvelous as others perceive it simply because you put in more focus on doing it and that has made it relatively easy to always remember.
The brain does not want you to stress yourself much so it tries to make a previous task easy the second time you try doing it. When you do it the second and third time, the brain begins to find ways to make it as easy as possible so that you do not have to stress it.
So what you focus on over time becomes easier and easier until it becomes a habit. Due to this, you need to find ways to understand what you focus your attention on.
Do you always complain and find the negative side of things. The brain makes it easier such that the next time you try to complain, it becomes easy and soon you find that it is such an easy activity that you can just do it with no stress. It becomes a habit and the key to the habit had always been about your focus.
When you want to get something done. All you need is to focus your attention on it until your brain does it so seamlessly. For those of us that drive cars, remember your first time behind the wheel, how hard was it to reverse the car, remember it was so difficult, but now, you are as smooth as silk with driving.
This concept is the same with learning and doing anything new. Your brain tries to first fight it until it becomes a part of it. Once it becomes a part of you, it becomes a habit that you can hardly fight.
That is why people say show me your friends and I would tell you who you are. This is because you are simply a summation of what your friends focus on. If I know what your friends focus on, I can greatly estimate what you also focus on.
So tread carefully today on what you focus on. Your focus can be made to work for the good or the bad. Choose wisely.
Thanks and God bless.
