Focus

We need focus in a life filled with distractions.

I sat this morning with laptop on lap reading those words.

I noticed my coffee cup on the desk. Reached for it. Empty.

My gaze caught the Post-It note with a chord progression for a song I’m learning. My mind went through the song.

Oh, now I need to get up and visit the bathroom. Then make a cup of coffee. Now my wife is up. I am thinking about the process of preparing the patio for winter.

Returning to my office, what was I thinking about.

Oh, yes, focus.

We (I) need focus in a life filled with distractions.

    As I read this, I think that you are focusing on the immediate, the living, the now, and not being distracted by all the speculation out there. Coffee, reflection, your wife, the music. There is a layer of focus that is compelling.
