In this episode, we are going to talk about Focus and Attention! The key is to focus on what you want, while also deciding to not allow distractions to derail you! In order to get what you want you have to maintain focus and attention on that goal or dream. Often getting what you want is having clarity about it! So, the first step is to ask yourself “What do I want?”. This question can’t necessarily be answered quickly or without due reflection.
