This article is intended to open the eyes of some of you.  So many times we are trying to figure out why I can’t lead a prosperous and steady life. People are always looking for the next best thing, and it’s ok to look for it, but only if you are so determined that you will focus your full attention to the achievement of it, that is when you truly achieve what you are looking for.

It is not enough for a person to think about a new business and start to plan, and build some relations with future clients; doing this is not enough, you have to be where the action is, that is why if you want to achieve something focus in only that thing and devote your hole time to the attainment of it as long as it is necessary. I like to explain focus with a peculiar example:

“When you have a magnifying glass pointing moving all over a piece of paper and the sun is going directly through the glass, guess what? Nothing will happen. But instead of moving the magnifying glass around, put it pointing directly into a corner of the paper without moving it and the paper will start burning eventually. That is focus.”

So in order to achieve what you want you need to focus in what you want and only in that.

Here is a great paragraph from the Napoleon Hill collection, if you want more information on subjects regarding self help, try visiting the WWW.NAPHILL.ORG website.

Controlled attention is the act of coordinating all the faculties of the mind and directing their combined power to a given end. It is an act which can be achieved only by the strictest sort of self discipline.

Learn to fix your attention on a given subject, at will, for whatever length of time you choose. You will have learned the secret to power and plenty! This is concentration.

Keep your mind off the things you don’t want!
