THE POWER OF FOCUS

As a child, did you ever use a magnifying glass to start a fire? The magnifying glass takes the diffused rays of the sun and brings them together on a single point. This focusing of the sun's rays onto a single point creates enough energy to start a fire. In his book, Good to Great, Jim Collins says that one thing that separates good companies from great ones is that the great ones have found a focus, i.e., a purpose toward which they channel all their activities. Paul said in Phil. 3:13, "but one thing I do . . .." Have you discovered the one focus or purpose in your life toward which all your energies and activities can be pointed? This is a key to your success.
