Keep your eyes š on the prize - #StayFocused
Edgar Allan Poe, scribed āBelieve nothing you hear, and half of what you seeā.Ā This doesnāt mean that things you see or hear are not true.Ā However, it does warn you that you should not believe everything that is said or that you hear.
Hereās one āļø prescription I take: In God I Trust, everyone else must bring data. Said - W. Edwards Deming.Ā This primarily refers to the importance of data and analysis when doing business.Ā However - it works for all things.
To Stay Focused:
You should determine what it is you are attempting to accomplish.Ā New Job, New Boo, First Husband/Wife, New Wife/Husband, New Car/House, Savings/Investments, Invention, etc.
You need to determine whoās behind you.Ā Your support system.Ā Although vices are considered - focus strongly on added values.
You must set a timeline that include milestones.Ā Eg.Ā Itās September 1, and by December 31, I will have saved 2K ($500 monthly) so that I can pay for my cruise in June 2023.Ā In December, you can set a new goal.
You must #StayFocused to combat negativity. One way, tap into your previous wins! Showcase your proven track record since youāve experienced favorable outcomes.Ā Certainly, you received your last promotion based on prior accomplishments. Apple does it. Lebron James does it. Chick-fil-A. Even Politicians. You get it. Another example: Take notice of your credit report monthly, whether favorable or not thatās a great tool to monitor how you are performing. #CreditKarma #AMX #Chase #StayFocused
I close with two (2) quotes: one from Ladies Love Cool J (LL Cool J aka James Todd Smith) and Phillip Sweet.
Stay focused, go after your dreams and keep moving toward your goals.
Stay true to yourself, yet always be open to learn. Work hard, and never give up on your dreams, even when nobody else believes they can come true but you. These are not cliches but real tools you need no matter what you do in life to stay focused on your path.
Thatās it! Just a little nugget to remind us to #StayFocused
