Intentional attention

What you’re paying attention to directly influences what you’re investing your life in. Could you be making more beneficial investments?

Attention uses time, attention provides perspective, and attention drives effort. These factors significantly impact the quality of your life and your world.

If you allow, your attention can be hijacked by trivial or even nefarious matters. Yet you can choose not to allow that.

Certainly it’s important to know what’s going on in the world around you. But it’s also important to point your precious, powerful attention toward furthering goodness and achievement.

Every minute of every day your attention is focused in one direction or another. Challenge yourself to manage your attention in a smart and purposeful manner.

Attention serves you best when it is intentional. Invest your attention where it does the most good, and your life will benefit greatly.

— Ralph Marston
