Focus

Our vision can be clouded by too many things. A little trim to get rid of the things you don’t need can give you a whole new look. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is saying no to a great opportunity. Having a clear goal is the first step to knowing what you need to cut out of your life.

The best way I have found to do that is to take a break. Take time away from your daily work to focus on your yearly objectives. It’s a lot easier to know what to remove once you know what needs to stay.

Just because you focus on one bad thing doesn’t mean the others are not bad, but we all have limits. Make sure you are aware of our own limits and do your best to make a positive difference.
