[Quote No.61846] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"2500 years ago Gautama Siddhartha [Buddha] said, 'What you think, you become.'
His words are as relevant today as they were when uttered, perhaps even more. They have echoed down the centuries, creating a positive influence in everyone who heard and applied them.
With just five words Siddhartha outlined a way of living that puts you in control of your life. Why? Because your thoughts really do have an effect on your life. You really can influence your own destiny and create your own future. It all starts with what you're thinking about today.
Whatever opinions and beliefs you may hold on the philosophical efficacy of this concept, the facts are undeniable: Thoughts influence emotions – and emotions stimulate actions.
...
This basic law of life is that you tend to create what you keep your attention on.
You create your our own life and it all starts with your thoughts. A desirable future will be there if you create it today. It all starts with intentionally directing your thoughts and emotions toward what you desire.
Even Henry Ford agrees when he said, 'Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're usually right.'

[Quote No.61881] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way.
I learned a deep respect for one of Goethe's couplets: 'Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it!' {Remember 'Beginning is winning!' and 'Well begun is half done!']" - William Hutchison Murray

[Quote No.61898] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"If you think about it, our attention is the only thing we truly own in our lives. Our possessions can go away. Our bodies can be compromised. Our relationships can fall apart. Even our memories and intellectual capacity fade away.
But the simple ability to choose what to focus on — that will always be ours.
...
I would say that our ability to focus and hone our attention on what we need is a core component of living a [productive] happy, healthy life. ...
To be [productive] happy and healthy, we need to feel as though we are in control of ourselves and we are utilizing our abilities and talents effectively. To do that, we must be in control of our attention." - Mark Manson

[Quote No.62175] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"Best Procrastination Tip Ever:
Your first thought as you look at this article will be, 'I'll read this later.'
But don't. Let the urge to switch to a new task pass. Read this now.
It'll take you two minutes. It'll save you countless hours.
I've written the book on ending procrastination, but I've since come up with a very simple technique for beating everyone's favorite nemesis. It is incredibly easy, but as with anything, it takes a little practice.
Try it now:
Identify the most important thing you have to do today.
Decide to do just the first little part of it - just the first minute, or even 30 seconds of it. Getting started is the only thing in the world that matters.
Clear away distractions. Turn everything off. Close all programs. There should just be you, and your task.
Sit there, and focus on getting started. Not doing the whole task, just starting. [Just getting inertia going in the direction you want!]
Pay attention to your mind, as it starts to have urges to switch to another task. You will have urges to check email or Facebook or Twitter or your favorite website. You will want to play a game or make a call or do another task. Notice these urges.
But don't move. Notice the urges, but sit still, and let them pass. Urges build up in intensity, then pass, like a wave. Let each one pass.
Notice also your mind trying to justify not doing the task. Also let these self-rationalizing thoughts pass.
Now just take one small action to get started. As tiny a step as possible.
Get started, and the rest will flow." - Leo Babauta

Since the vast majority of our words and actions are unnecessary, corralling them will create an abundance of leisure and tranquility. As a result, we shouldn't forget at each moment to ask, is this one of the unnecessary things?" - Marcus Aurelius
Stoic philosopher and Roman Emperor.

Because most of what we do or say is not essential." - Marcus Aurelius
