Simple Words that Can Help Us Stay Focused

Our conduct has greater value than any circumstance.

The world is falling apart in record time.

More circumstances are facing us each day than I can count. But, there is a silver lining. The more we see our part, the more we can take charge and focus.

A great quote I came across:

Circumstances are beyond human control, but our conduct is in our own power.

Benjamin Disraeli

Many circumstances fall way out of my scope. What will my taxes increase? When will this pandemic end?

Yet, the only constant I can lay hold of is how I will conduct myself. Will I look at the problems around or focus on moving toward goals?

It’s not easy, but sometimes we need to take our eyes off what’s going on around us and focus on the things we can change, ourselves.
