The Pride of Focus


THE PRIDE OF FOCUS

Written by Oluwatosin Animasahun

Everyone sure has one or more targets in this race of fulfilling destiny. The length at which we can hold our target as a captive is how people think of us as whether we are successful or not.

When you see a small boy who wanted to kill a bird with a stone. He may choose to kill the bird with either by his bare hand or by a catapult. What he choose doesn't measure the assurance of him killing the bird, what measure the assurance of the bird getting killed is the rate at which the small boy maintain his focus by balancing his eyes with his hand; hence the need for the reason why focus must be maintained.

Focus is the conscious act of blocking all sources of distraction so that balances required for a particular target is gotten

To be focused means something valuable which is worth living for has attracted you and has compelled you to deviate from every other things until the mission is accomplish. So this means focus is an activity that block our eyes from reaching every other thing no matter how attractive they could be.

However, there's a tendency that we loose a lot of things while maintaining focus on a single target. We even grow to the extent that anything that comes to us during the process of the focus is an error. So we tend to tag such brochure as an enemy of progress. And that's actually the pride that comes out of focus

For instance, you were trying to put a thread inside a needle, then a rat trembles at your feet. Then you show no attention until you later remember that you were hungry before you wanted to put a thread inside a needle. Hey! The rat is gone! Behold, hunger kept smiling at you. Why? Because of the pride that came out of your focus.


Beloved, you never could tell how long you need to maintain that focus until your vision is at hand. Do not be consumed by the pride of your focus. Do not wave away all distractions, some distractions are actually the propellant of your vision unknown to you, just that they came to a wrong place at a right time.

As I conclude, pride is the state of being proud. Pride of focus comes in when you think you have secured your target as a result of the level of intense concentration you gave on that thing. You never had it, but you thought  you have it. This thought will consume you because you can never have it until you realize that you don't have it yet.

So, whenever you think that you don't have it yet, you can think of applying something else in order to have it. But whenever you start thinking you have secured what you never had is when you'll stop applying different methods to having it which means you may not ever have it.

Check your timeline and call yourself to order. May we not be consumed by the pride of our focus. I so much love you. Thanks for reading
