Reallocate Your Focus

There are two types of problems. Those we can do something about, and those we can’t. It’s worth from time to time reflecting on where you may be spending energy trying to change something that is outside your sphere of influence. Remember, all the energy you are spending on this particular issue is taking your time and attention away from the things you actually can impact. If you want to progress faster, reallocate your focus to the problems that are solvable, or atleast under your influence. 


THIS WEEK: What are the unfixable problems you're trying to fix in your own life? Where do you find yourself getting swept up in the heat of the problem you can’t solve?

 

All the best,

Steve Lawson - Monk Manual Founder
