*Whatsoever a man focuses his attention on, engages his mind and being.*
*With the above explanation in mind, you must therefore be careful about what you focus your attention on, even as our destiny runs our race of life.*
*If a man allows distractions to engage his mind, he will not likely achieve his goals or get to his destination.*
*What can one really classify as distractions in our journey of life?*
*They are, but not limited to the following :*
*1) The great crowd of needless noise as in the market place around you.*
*2) The ceaseless comments by people who knew next to nothing about specific subject matters going on around you.*
*These people will want to poke their nose into everything about other people’s matters, when their comments have little or no weight at all.*
*3) Comments on the general down turn of things around. This area is so wide that if one is not careful, one can be lost in such comments and commentaries, yet the issues facing you will still be begging for your attention. You derive nothing from joining in such time wasting comments.*
*4) Hustles by others to make ends meet and survive. As they struggle to survive, you must keep up with yours too by being positively engaged.*
*5) Gossiping and idle talks about others should not be your business at all.*
*6) Political talks and conspiracy theories, when you have nothing to do with politics, such will only dissipate your energy.*
*7) Paying less attention to things that will not add value to your life or determine your destiny.*
*8) Views and comments of haters and slanderers around you.*
*Such as mentioned above does not worth your attention or note of consideration, rather focus your mind and attention on the promises ahead of you and your God-given ability. At the end, you will see things working out in your favour.*
Top of the day to you 👍
