The importance of focus
Every school report I had as a kid had a consistent criticism levelled at me…Social butterfly… lacks focus.In my defence, some of those teachers were knobheads, but as we’re amongst friends, there was probably an element of truth as well.My nature is to magpie, to chase the shiny things, to look for the next thing.For me, that’s how I view growth. It’s the thing I find exciting.But… to actually grow… and to sustain that growth, sometimes you have to knuckle down and focus. You have to cut out the noise and do the thing.In a different way, I’ve been struggling with focus recently. Trying to figure out what is the thing I would like to achieve: to focus on - has been a daily exercise in reflection. Things are going well, but could they be going even better if I nailed down to one specific direction?I don’t have the answers in this episode - so today, we can explore together. Hosted on Acast.
