“Whatever you will focus your attention on will grow in your life,” a mentor once said to me.
I had almost forgotten such an important lesson.
Because my attention was distributed between different things.
As I am dropping projects one by one, I am getting my time and energy back.
But more importantly, I can focus my attention on things that matter to me the most.
Our attention is our most important resource. Even more than time and energy.
What we’re paying attention to impacts how we experience every second, minute, and hour of our lives.
Attention is the very fuel of the modern economy.
But managing our attention is becoming increasingly difficult.
When we give our attention away freely to everyone who asks for it, every company that demands it, it affects us in all areas of our lives.
One way I am taking back ownership of my attention is by building my knowledge management system.
All my insights, ideas, thoughts, and notes at one place. It is taking time and energy but I once I am done with it, my knowledge management system will enhance my productivity multiple times.
This project has my full attention at the moment.
What has got your attention at the moment?
