The Right Way To Focus

👇🏾 A Thread (Retweet)
Think of any successful person you know -

- elite sportsmen
- renowned scientists
- or millionaire businessmen

The one trait you’ll find in all of them, is laser-like Focus.
Focus is a creative force - so it must have both magnitude & direction.

This thread will show you how to properly direct your focus...
❌ Focus on learning

✅ Focus on practicing

You don’t need more books, start implementing the knowledge you’ve gained.

Skin in the game is the best form of learning.
❌ Focus on the end goal

✅ Focus on the process

Focusing on the goal is counterproductive. It will also make you miserable.

Be absolutely devoted to the process and the results will come naturally...
❌ Get rich quick schemes

✅ Building skills

A skillful man cannot be broke.

It is your skills that make you valuable and indispensable.

Stack them, hone them to perfection, monetize them...
❌ Social acceptance

✅ Self-validation

You will never stand out if you keep trying to fit in.

Self-worth is an intrinsic value, don’t outsource it.
❌ Focus on the past

✅ Focus on the future

Every failure is a stepping stone, every mistake is a life lesson in disguise.

Dwell on the past and you’ll remain stagnant.

Focus on the present and you’ll create a better future.
Your focus will manifest in

- your thoughts & emotions

- the things you say & do

- the things you say No to

Atleast 80% of your time, effort & attention must be channeled to your dreams for it to manifest.
If you struggle to be productive, Day-1 mentality will teach you how to organize and structure your day.

It’s 50% off for the next 20 people, so hurry ⏰

5 types of people you need in your inner circle.

👇🏾 Read thread
You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.

It is therefore essential to have an inner circle of achievers.

It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.
1) A mentor:

Find someone with more experience, wisdom and success than you.

Learn all about their mistakes, strategies & network.

Mentors are not easy to find, you have to seek them and be worthy of their time.

10 Rules That Will Help You Succeed 10x Faster 📝

A thread 🪡
1) Aim higher, strike harder:

Never set realistic goals.

It’s better to fall short from a massive target than to reach an average one.

Have an unreasonable target, then take 10x the amount of action needed to achieve it.
2) Think of success as a duty:

Success is a do-or-die mission, it is not optional.

It is a responsibility to yourself, your family & society.

Unless you develop this resolve, to succeed no matter what, it will elude you.

🔁 RT to bless your friend’s TL
1) Prioritize Your Health:

You don’t need body positivity.

You need;

- agility
- flexibility
- strength
- endurance
- good posture
- good heart rate
- moderate sugar levels
- normal blood pressure
If it’s medically proven to cause health related issues, minimize your intake or avoid it completely.

Stupidity - is repeatedly doing something harmful and calling it “fun”.

15 APHORISMS FILLED WITH WISDOM:

1) Avoid being disliked without being envied or admired.

2) A slave is much easier controlled by convincing him he is an employee.

3) Never say NO twice if you mean it.
4) Procrastination is the soul rebelling against entrapment.

5) Instead of finding role models, it is more effective to find anti-models (people you don’t want to resemble when you grow up).
6) Weak men act to satisfy their needs, stronger men act to fulfill their duties. ImageImage
