Oct 9 - Sharpen Your Focus
Sharpen Your Focus
October 9, 2007
- "Fine-tune your intensity. Focus gently and guard against obsession.
- Allow time for ideas to simmer while you do other things.
- Direct your focus appropriately. Find a balance between physical and cerebral pursuits, easy and challenging activities, and solitude and activities with others.
- Let go of things that sap your energy. Prioritizing helps you to be sure you're focusing on the right things.
- Really listen to others with focus. So often, we go through the motions and miss opportunities to learn. What are the person's eyes telling you? What about her body language? Is it consistent with the words you're hearing?
- Live, work, and play with intention (Canterucci, 2005, p. 152)."
