Focus on Focus
Learning how to rein in your thoughts and focus is going to help you to achieve your goals in life. Without focus, you can never achieve anything. Eric Phillips
The only thing that can grow is the thing you give energy to.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
Many times people wonder that despite all their efforts they don’t get the desired results. One thing which need to be checked is that are the efforts focused in one direction and one area or on multiple areas at the same which may lead to dilution of efforts and focus.
This brings into the picture the power of focus on focus
Once great business leaders were asked the qualities which is essential to succeed.
They wrote many qualities but one quality which was common for both Warren buffet and Bill Gates was focus.
How not to get distracted by other things and give one full energy and effort on one thing.
Once in a story, hero is pitched against the devil. Hero is weak and has learnt martial arts training to overcome the devil.
Hero’s Zen Coach tells him that your biggest weapon against the devil will not be the thousand moves which you have practiced one or ten times but one move which you have practiced ten thousand times.
This the power of focus and concentration.
Rarely you will see one player excelling at international level in two games. One person is exceptional in one game.
Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohil are example who started the game of cricket as an allrounder but quit bowling to focus completely on batting and have excelled in batting by doing so.
How focus can be improved or built?
Focus can be improved by building concentration and sticking your efforts to one area at one time.
Concentration can be built by having a calm mind with no distraction and having pure thoughts. If mind is calm, it will become easy to stick to one area of expertise.
Focus is required to build excellence. You have to choose one field and excel in it. If you choose too many fields you may lose focus and may not be able to build excellence and gain success. People who perform extraordinary well are good in one game only.
The power and strength of focus is such that it can open the doors of opportunities which were closed for you so far.
Simply remember, Jeff Bezos built one Amazon, Bill Gates built one Microsoft and Roger Federer is master of one game.
“If there are nine rabbits on the ground, if you want to catch one, just focus on one.”- Jack Ma
