The Art of Focus Focus is the act of thinking and acting with attention and discernment. It’s the ability to choose a concentration and consciously devote our energy to it. This involves the thoughts we think, the emotions we listen to, and the things that we choose to do, even on the most microscopic level. The world we create around us is dependent on how well we focus and what we focus on. If our focus is sporadic, we create a sporadic environment. If our focus is centralized, our environment becomes a centralized point. In essence, we are what we focus on. This puts our fates and our futures in our hands to a pretty big extent. We can’t control everything that happens but we can control what we devote our time and energy to, which eventually sees results, whether we like them or not. The art of focus is all about cultivating the skills to become an actual active participant in our lives based on what we choose to think about and do. By choosing to make our focus conscious, we are capable of becoming more. We are able to weed out the unconscious forces and drives that hold us back. Here are some things you can do to cultivate the art of focus. Mindfulness Meditation
