Maybe it’s a dog in its crate staring through the bars at its favorite toy (or if your dogs are anything like mine were, they are coveting that scrap of food they see on the floor next to your chair). Then they decide they are going to get it. No matter what it takes they work and work to get themselves out of their crates to be united with that special object. I have been amazed at the confines my contortionist Siberian huskies were able to escape. Have you ever been like that? Have you ever been in a situation where you see nothing else but that goal? Nothing can stand in your way and you reschedule everything on your calendar so you can devote every moment to that thing. That is focus. The more you focus on it, the better you get. An obstacle comes along? No problem. You’ve got it covered. You’ll find a way around or over it, just like my huskies. The more you work at achieving this one thing, the more it takes over your life. Then the more it takes over your life, the more invested you are. Nothing will stop you now! Then “all of a sudden” (which really isn’t all of a sudden if you look at it objectively), what you were working for appears in your life. What is your focus in life right now? Are you happy with that? Are you easily distracted? What will it take from you to bring your focus back to where it belongs? You must answer this (and other) questions. It takes great effort and desire to break the inertia of sitting around wondering “what should I do?”. You have to have something that makes you want to bust through the inertia and make you focus. Find that, get a support system, and there will be no stopping you!
