"[The power of focused attention on what is desired and distraction from what is not desired is incredible:] The important thing to remember is that in any situation, people are free to manage their experiences and desires through imaginatively controlling their attention and focus, or we would never have come up with the aphoristic wisdom of 'Monkey see, monkey do!' And 'Out of sight and out of mind!'].

There are always difficulties arising
that tempt you to believe your critics are right." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"[Focus on what you want and distract from what you don't want. This develops absorbed attention, called 'flow', by Hungarian-American psychologist Robert Csikszentmihalyi, or 'peak experience' by American psychologist Abraham Maslow:] Attention is not just another cognitive function. Attention is how our world comes into being for us. The altered nature of attention can appear to abolish parts of the world, collapse time and space [and] eviscerate emotion." - Iain McGilchrist

"[Focus on what you want and distract from what you don't want. This develops absorbed attention, called 'flow', by Hungarian-American psychologist Robert Csikszentmihalyi, or 'peak experience' by American psychologist Abraham Maslow:] ...the world we experience is shaped by how we direct our attention. For reality is too complex, and we are too limited, to attend to but a sliver of all that exists. Attend to one sliver of reality and we experience one type of world, alter our attentional capacities, change what we attend to, and we change the very world we experience. ...there are many possible worlds for each of us to experience. Some of these worlds are conducive to a life well lived, others are not. " - academy of ideas

[Quote No.68628] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"[Focus on what you want and distract from what you don't want:] That your experience largely depends on the material objects and mental subjects that you choose to pay attention to or ignore is not an imaginative notion, but a physiological fact. When you focus on a stop sign or a sonnet, a waft of perfume or a stock-market tip, your brain registers that 'target,' which enables it to affect your behavior. In contrast, the things that you don't attend to in a sense don't exist, at least for you.
All day long, you are selectively paying attention to something, and much more often than you may suspect, you can take charge of this process to good effect. Indeed, your ability to focus on this and suppress that is the key to controlling your experience and, ultimately, your well-being." - Winifred Gallagher
This is a quote from his book 'Rapt: Attention and the Focused Life'.
