Water Drops

I’m sitting in traffic, literally just sitting there in the vehicle on the interstate waiting for the obstacle(s) to be removed. It’s raining and the wipers are on low, intermittent. I do a pretty good job of keeping my windshield coated with a water repellant so the beads of water tend to clear quickly.

As I am sitting there listening to some audio education on the CD player I’m watching the rain on the windshield. Very small droplets of water begin to gather and adjoin with other nearby drops. As the drops get bigger they move more. As they move and join with more drops they race down the windshield and disappear.

I liken this to the momentum that we experience in life. Here we are just hanging out. Then we grab onto something and get some movement going in our lives. We attract others and our momentum grows and we move faster. We reach a point where we are racing along at lightning speed as we make our progress.

As the drops move on the windshield they connect with others which help to move them faster. The direction is dependant on how the vehicle itself is moving. In my example I’m sitting still. If I were going 55 mph the drops would be moving in a different direction because of the wind resistance.

There are many factors in our lives that will play a part in how we, like the droplets of water, will navigate through our lives. Bottom line, you are in charge. You decide how many more droplets you want to acquire. You decide how fast you want to travel. You decide if you even want to go outside and dance in the rain.

Happy dancing! GO DO!™

Focus on Focusing

When do we usually realize that we need to pay more attention to something? When something (or someone) falls into disrepair maybe? When the gutters are falling off of the garage and you just can’t put it off any longer? When the relationship as dwindled to a point of “routine”? When business slows because of less networking and marketing efforts? All of these could be true.

How much are you focusing on how much you focus? Work with me on this. Sometimes we need help focusing, right? So, we have to get ourselves organized to a point where we can focus and be productive. Agree? Okay, so if you become focused on really concentrating on knocking items off of your list then your world becomes a brighter place, right? Of course it does.

The moment that you realize that if you were more focused on (insert your item here), that is when you are focused on focusing. You internally recognize that your process needs to change in order for you to be more effective in business, in your relationships, in life.

You become more productive as a result and you gain more self confidence because you are proving to yourself (and others) that you are capable of succeeding.

When we become determined and set our sights on achieving a goal, our focus is intense and that is when most of us do our best work.

Set priorities. Set goals. Focus. GO DO!™
