Message of the Day - Focus & Clarity

Good Morning,

 

In talking with one of my associates yesterday, I was impressed with their newfound clarity and focus on their life purpose and goals. They had been through a rough spell and came out of it renewed and determined. This determination to improve their live and the lives of their loved ones was powerful to experience. You could see it in their eyes.

 

This person had not fundamentally changed from last week. What changed was being able to see clearly what was truly important to them, and to be able to take that clear view and focus on it intently. At that point in time, the problems and frustrations of the world melted away. These distractions ceased to have power over my associate and life instantly became more gratifying.

 

Better yet, with a physical image, a picture of a loved one, as the focus, all my associate has to do is look at that picture, and the clarity and focus return.

 

What a powerful tool to help us. If we all could find something that could serve as our rally cry or our ultimate goal, we could look at it when we were confused or frustrated and the clarity and focus would return. The confusion and frustration would fall behind us and we would know what we had to do, as clear as day.

 

If you do not have something which empowers your drive and gives you focus and clarity, take some time to think about what is truly important to you. Ask yourself some questions:

 

Why do you work so hard?

Who are you doing this for?

What is your ultimate goal?

Who is your inspiration?

 

When you find what is truly important to you, get a picture of it and put it in your office or cube or somewhere you can look at it again and again when you need to re-ignite that clarity and focus. My focus is my family and helping them each member of my family achieve their own goals.

 

What brings clarity and focus in your life? Do you have a picture of it to help remind you daily?

 

Enjoy!
