Focus…

Our attention is our greatest asset but only if we focus it. The world wants to disperse, distract, and dominate our attention. Our young people have learned they no longer wear God on their wrist, they hold him in the palm of their hand. We do not make very good Gods, do we?

Want more control of your mind?

Grab a hand, look another in the eye, and talk. Grab a book, a pen, and read something where the learning matters to you. Put your hand on a bar, ball, kettlebell, or TRX. Put your foot on a ball, bike, or go for a hike. Focus entirely on the other person, the bell, or the bike. Narrow the focus. Deepen flow. Put this on rinse and repeat. Do this daily whether you feel like it or not. Turn this routine into your ritual. Make it sacred.

Anxiety, depression, panic, and all kinda other disorders cannot survive (for long) when our focus is out of our head and into an activity laced with meaning, purpose, and passion. Control attention. Flow follows focus. God designed it this way. Maybe it’s time you stopped fighting your designer, huh.

Live hard. Love harder…
