ATTENTION

ATTENTION

It was Mary Oliver who said, "Attention is the beginning of devotion". Whatever you have not given attention to, you cannot be devoted to, and whatever you are not devoted to, you cannot get anything out of it. There is a standard fruit for every seed planted, and a standard result for every endeavour entered into, whatever you focus on gives you the attendant result and outcome.

When someone is said to lack attention, it really is not lack of attention, it is giving attention to something other than what is supposed to be more important, something less useful, and less productive. People get different results in life because they devote their time to different things. There is no bias in life, everyone has twenty four hours a day, how it is been maximized determines what each one gets out of it.

Susan Sontag once said, "Do stuff. be clenched, curious. Not waiting for inspiration's shove or society's kiss on your forehead. Pay attention. It's all about paying attention. attention is vitality. It connects you with others. It makes you eager. stay eager". Paying attention gives you direction to go after that which you truly desire.

Keep your focus, your gaze, and your determination on the fulfillment of your life's dreams, and purpose; difficulties will come, challenges will arise, but when your ATTENTION is on the price, the destination, and your devotion is unwavering, you will surely get there.
