Stop Dabbling Through Life

“One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.”~Tony Robbins

Are you dabbling your way through life? Have you never decided to master anything in life? That's why you aren't achieving as much as you want, because you haven't put the power of focus to work for you. It is said that it takes 5000 hours to become competent at something and 10,000 hours to become a master. How are you coming along towards that 5K?

Most people don't have what they want because they don't know what they want out of life. Do you? Really?? If you do, good for you. If not, decide right now what you want and focus on getting it. Be specific about what you want and why. Your why will always be the strongest partner for you because your why will drive you to get what you want.

Action:
Decide what you want. Stop dabbling your way through life and start to master something. You can't get to 10k hours without putting the first hour of work in!

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

Limited Targets

"Nothing can add more power to your life than concentrating all your energies on a limited set of targets."~Nido Qubein

Do you have too many targets? Why is it that we are always chasing after the big "new" thing? What is it that your business really does? Are you doing it or are you chasing all these other targets thinking that will work for you?

What do your clients really want from you? Are you giving it to them? Really?

Think about how much power your life would have if you just concentrated all your energies on a few things, instead of trying to do 100 things at the same time and feeling proud of ourselves that we are great "multi-taskers." (See previous post on multi-tasking)

How good could you become concentrating all your energies on a few things? How many more people could you serve? What would it add to your life?

Something to think about...

"Nothing can add more power to your life than concentrating all your energies on a limited set of targets."

Your Attention

"Do not give your attention to what others do or fail to do, give it to what you do or fail to do."~Buddha

Concentrate only on what you do, not others.

In today's society, we are so caught up with trying to "keep up with the Jones's." Why? Do we really need that fancy car, house, I phone? What is it about what others have that makes us want to have it as well. Are we missing out on something if we don't get it?

Be authentic, be who you are, not what others think you should be. Once you are authentic, you will know what you need to have and what you will want to have, not what you 'have' to have. Think about that for a while...

Do not give your attention to what others fail to do either. It is their failure, not yours to rejoice over or point out. We are all traveling different paths but are heading in the same direction.

If you do pay attention to what others are doing, do it in a way that uplifts and strengthens them. Do not do it in any other way.

"Do not give your attention to what others do or fail to do, give it to what you do or fail to do."
