Focus on What You Want

At this time of remembrance, it’s easy to see the world as unfriendly and the challenges of life as insurmountable. In organizations where things are not going your way, the lure of seeing the issues not the opportunities looms large. But the flick of a switch can shift you to a place from which all issues seem only as points of learning not obstacles to be overcome.

Focus on what you want. Albert Einstein is often quoted as saying that when you passionately believe in that which does not exist, you can create it. I like the follow up: “It’s on the way” because no one can dissuade you.

I also like the implication---there’s nothing to fuss about.
