Focusing Quotes (page 16)

Let me begin by telling you that I was in love. An ordinary statement, to be sure, but not an ordinary fact, for so few of us learn that love is tenderness, and tenderness is not, as a fair proportian suspect, pity; and still fewer know that happiness in love is not the absolute focusing of all emotion in another: one has always to love a good many things which the beloved must come only to symbolize; the true beloveds of this world are in their lovers's eyes lilacs opening, ship lights,... Truman Capote
When the Lord makes it clear you're to follow Him in this new direction, focus fully on Him and refuse to be distracted by comparisons with others. Charles R. Swindoll
I placed the highest priority on the sort of life that lets me focus on writing, not associating with all the people around me. Haruki Murakami
She'd always believed that people come in two varieties: those who look out the windshield and those who stare in the rearview mirror. She'd(Julie) always been the windshield type: gotta focus on the future, not the past, because that's the only part that's still up for grabs. Mom throws me out? Gotta get some food and find a place to live. Husband dies? Gotta keep working, or I'll end up going crazy. Got some guy stalking me? Gotta figure out a way to stop it. Nicholas Sparks
Instead of focusing on the world's problems, give your attention and energy to trust, love, abundance, education and peace. :-) Rhonda Byrne
Ellen DeGeneres quote: "I think there's too much mult-tasking going on. I think people..."
I think there's too much mult-tasking going on. I think people need to quiet down and focus and be still more. Ellen DeGeneres
Language is a skin: I rub my language against the other. It is as if I had words instead of fingers, or fingers at the tip of my words. My language trembles with desire. The emotion derives from a double contact: on the one hand, a whole activity of discourse discreetly, indirectly focuses upon a single signified, which is "I desire you," and releases, nourishes, ramifies it to the point of explosion (language experiences orgasm upon touching itself); on the other hand, I enwrap the other in... Roland Barthes
Most times we're so focused on what we think we want that we can't appreciate how happy we already are. It's only when we forget about our problems and help others forget theirs that we realize how good we really have it. Glenn Beck
You realize there are certain things that you'll never do that you always thought would be part of your future. It's a big relief to discover what you are best suited for, and it's a real advantage to be able then to focus. Richard Hell
From the backstabbing co-worker to the meddling sister-in-law, you are in charge of how you react to the people and events in your life. You can either give negativity power over your life or you can choose happiness instead. Take control and choose to focus on what is important in your life. Those who cannot live fully often become destroyers of life. Anais Nin
People often ask, "What is the single most important environmental population problem facing the world today?" A flip answer would be, "The single most important problem is our misguided focus on identifying the single most important problem! Jared Diamond
Rick Warren quote: "Knowing your purpose focuses your life."
Knowing your purpose focuses your life. Rick Warren
The search for the purpose of life has puzzled people for thousands of years. That’s because we typically begin at the wrong starting point—ourselves. We ask self-centered questions like What do I want to be? What should I do with my life? What are my goals, my ambitions, my dreams for my future? But focusing on ourselves will never reveal our life’s purpose. Rick Warren
People will judge me. People will look at my life, and they will look at the decisions I have made, and they will always focus on this one specific weakness that I have. This one specific problem will define everything about my character. To so many people, this problem will be the only thing about my life that matters. Everybody has a problem. I didn’t decide to be like this. Nobody decides to have a problem. So why is this the only thing about my life that matters? Suzanne Collins
Stephen King quote: "All I'm focusing on is pickin' 'em up and layin' 'em down."
All I'm focusing on is pickin' 'em up and layin' 'em down. Stephen King
