When we are focused on something, we often see more of it. Our attention is powerful.
If you are driving down the street looking out for red cars, you will suddenly see more red cars than you ever thought there were.
The act of focusing tunes us into new possibilities related to what we are focusing on.
- Job opportunities open up when we start networking in our desired field.
- Topics become more engaging when we seek to learn something.
- We become more articulate when we try to speak up in meetings.
- Steps go up when we start monitoring them on a fitness tracker.
- We start reading more when we have interesting books around the house.
If we don’t make an effort to focus on something meaningful, then we often get drawn to that device in our pockets and endless scrolling. Do you really want more of that?
