[Quote No.64854] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"...controlling your attention – becoming more able to place it where you want it and keep it there, and more able to pull it away from what's bothersome or pointless (such as looping again and again through anxious preoccupations, mental grumbling, or self-criticism) – is the foundation of changing your brain, and thus your life, for the better. As the great psychologist, William James, wrote over a century ago: 'The education of attention would be the education par excellence.'" - Rick Hanson
Psychologist and New York Times best-selling author. [Refer https://www.rickhanson.net/pay-attention/ ]

[Quote No.64906] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"We believe that 95 percent of your emotions are determined by the way you talk to yourself as you go throughout your day! The sad fact is that if you do not deliberately and consciously talk to yourself in a positive and constructive way, you will, by default, think about things that will make you unhappy or cause you worry and anxiety. Your mind is like a garden. If you do not deliberately plant flowers and tend carefully, weeds will grow without any encouragement at all. [Refer Albert Ellis' Rational Emotive Therapy (RET) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).] " - Brian Tracy

[Quote No.64945] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"[Story about focus:]
One day the Zen master wanted to show his students a new technique of shooting an arrow. He told his students to cover his eyes with a cloth and then he shot his arrow. When he opened his eyes, he saw the target with no arrow in it and when he looked at his students, they looked embarrassed because their teacher had missed.
The Zen master asked them, 'What lesson do you think I intend to teach you all today?' They answered, 'We thought you would show us how to shoot at the target without looking.' The Zen master said, 'No, I taught you that if you want to be successful in life, don't forget the target. You have to keep an eye on the target, otherwise you may miss a good opportunity in life.' They looked at each other, impressed with the lesson.
The moral of the story is we need to consistently focus on what we want." - Unknown

[Quote No.65738] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"[Focus on what want to do and distract from what don't want:] Under the sway of strong impulse the man who is devoid of self-control willfully commits deeds that he knows to be fraught with future misery. But the man of discrimination, even though moved by desires, at once becomes conscious of the evil that is in them, and does not yield to their influence but remains unattached." - Srimad Bhagavatam
Srimad Bhagavatam, 11: vii [The Bhagavata Purana also known as the Bhagavatamahapuranam, Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, Srimad Bhagavata Mahapurana, or simply Bhāgavata, is one of Hinduism's 18 great Puranas.]
