Anyway, this is what I'm trying to work on more than anything right now. I know I have the abilities and the knowledge, but having the focus and making the effort to block out all the distractions, that is the final test. With the constant deluge of bad news about the economy it's easy to want to throw in the towel. Luckily I'm paying attention to that negative stuff less and focusing more on the positive. It's having a pretty big positive impact. I hadn’t seen this post until just now, after you linked to it in a comment made on the leechblock post.

I am more focused than ever and excited about the future. The news organizations aren't happy unless the world is on fire. I stopped watching them years ago! Thanks Felicia!
