Focus is the art of disconnecting from distractions. A distraction is anything that’s an enemy to your focus. The Apostle Paul understood this when he said, “This one thing I do…” (Philippians 3:13). What is the “one thing” that you’re giving particular attention to in this season? If you can’t answer that question it is not likely that you’re focused.

If you are spreading your energy among too many things you are simply watering down your power. If you garner all of your energy on “one thing,” you are putting the full force of your power in one place. It is the concept behind the laser. The concentration of all the energy in one small place is what results in a generation of so much power.

Creativity is the gathering of ideas and options—focus is the elimination of options. Once you have determined the most viable option, it’s imperative to eliminate every distraction. When it becomes clear what direction you should take it also becomes obvious what direction you need to avoid. If you have difficulty eliminating distractions, start practicing ignoring them.

Sometimes focus requires disconnecting from a person (or a group of people) if they are a distraction to what you have deemed to be most important. When you become clear about what you’re all about, it becomes clear who you should avoid.

Here are some additional power points on focus:

• Your focus is predicting your productivity.
• Your focus defines what you refuse to spend time on.
• Your focus may offend those who are not privy to how important it is to you.
• What you focus on is a reflection of what you have chosen to ignore.
• Focus is a force.

When you can define your focus and eliminate your distractions you can predict your results.
