Focussed or Focused.
Are you Focussed or Focused?
Regardless of how you spell it, it's whether you can do it that matters.
And everyone can focus.
Especially is there is a threat...or there's novelty.
This is the formula that the news and social media use. To keep you watching.
It's a $$$ trillion dollar economy and maintaining focus is a growing challenge.
The ability to concentrate.
All throughout your life, you have been told to concentrate.
But never taught to concentrate?
If you have eg. at school, work or life in general, please do share below...I'd love to know.
Concentration is essential for all higher cognitive abilities.
Starting with attention. Without it, the brain is jumping in and out of tasks and flow states cannot be attained.
How's your attention span?
Is it slowly deteriorating in a world full of distractions...those 'dings' and 'bings'?
Mine is.
To counteract it, I sit in stillness and silence to settle my often unruly mind.
Every day.
It's my non-negotiable.
Not only does it train concentration, it balances my mind...preparing me for the ups and downs ahead in my day.
Because they're coming. Each day.
How do you maintain focus?
PS. I once printed a pull up banner with 'ss' in focused. My colleauge Paul Majewski mentioned it. No one else ever did. Perhaps they didn't notice π
