I was a text book example of scatterbrained thinking, I never was able to pay much attention to one thing at a time for very long. My grades in school seem to prove everyones peception of my lack of FOCUS. I went from one thing to another never really thinking I had a problem. When people made fun of my work habits to be unacceptable, I really just thought I was not like them so they always had something to say. I went from school to a work environment with the same habits that seemed to have plagued my relationships at work, if anyone would say anything about how I did something or how I forgot something it was as if a warning light went on in me to defend all that was dear to me but when I would get home I would feel everyone was right and that there had to be some kind of learning disability I had therefore I was no good. I always had the greatest excuse for myself, my parents being divorced, being brought up on the wrong side of the tracks, There were so many excuses when I was backed in a corner that my life was backwards because my upbringing was backwards. Oh I could make up so much that had happened to me that this could be a book.
When I started to get a hold of material that said I could do more, be more, have more, I did’nt believe that right away either, it was just somebody else trying to make me feel good about myself till the next tradgedy that I would face. But as I read it made me feel better, it inspired me to imagine a life that was on the right sie of the tracks and that a life wealth is great when you dream about it. It made me feel good and I like to feel good, i like to feel like I have self-control, I like to feel prosperous, I like to feel I can give to an organization, I like to feel good about other people.
I thought well if I could focus on these things….. a biblical scripture came to mind think on things that are good noble and of good report, think on these things.
So I started reading more on focus and the chapters of books that dealt with focus and I did little mental exercises that would work out my mental muscles.
I started to create opportunities to do one thing at a time. I would take on tasks that resonated within me and keep my focus with those things until I completed them. Then all of a sudden I would see in more detail the task in front of me. It was amazing, something in me woke up a sixth sense so to speak. Now I am working on focusing much more and in greater detail than before. You can do it to ……. Focus - one of the Master Keys to Success….. Keep and n eye on the next article Magnifying Glass Focus.

Dressing for Your Body Type
By: Aaron Marino | 15/07/2008
All men were not created equal! Who ever said that we were, didn’t understand fashion or style. Our female counterparts have it much tougher than we do, many more shapes and curves to be aware of and try to accommodate or camouflage. But, this doesn’t mean that we don’t have to pay attention or understand the basics. Remember this also, fashion refers to the clothing itself while the word style is the way in which you manage and coordinate the fashion that you wear.
