Recently,
I was talking with Dick about keys
to successful results.
We
identified focus as an
important element contributing to superior outcomes.
Today
was one of those rare balmy January days in Washington, DC, hovering
around 60 degrees, so Dick and I headed to a nearby course for a
round golf.
While
returning to our cars, we had to chuckle about the focus conversation
in the context of a mid-week golf game.
However,
we suddenly realized that this confirmed the focus
principle – instead of goofing off 10 minutes here and there,
we had concentrated it in a 4 hour block.
It
seems right on so many levels. At times focus can become sharper when
you shift your focus to something else for a while.

Most times when I have a hard time getting something done, it's because I am approaching it from the wrong direction, usually straight on.
ReplyDeleteBacking off and regrouping, even talking to somebody else, can give me the key to the lock enough times to be a repeatable pattern.
