You are not in charge of your problems, your ego is. You are not alone.

We all have it. It is how you play with your ego. If you are not in charge of your ego, your ego is in charge of your life.

When that happens, you are in trouble. Why? Because your ego won’t let you go.

You ego will do everything to keep you where you are. That is the purpose of your ego.

Your purpose in life is to grow your life, to expand your world. But the purpose of your ego is to keep you where you are.

If you want to be successful in your own life, you must do whatever is within your power to take charge of your life.

To do that, according to Alan Stein Jr., ‘Drop the ego and stay open.’

Drop your ego and live your life. If your ego is in charge of your life, you are not free. To live freely, to enjoy your life, you must drop your ego.

Focus On What Matters To You

‘Use you unseen hours. Make the most of your time- those at the top do not waste a second. Focus on what matter.’– Alan Stein Jr.

You get what you focus on in your life. You have the power to focus on things that are important to you.

If something is not important to you, if it is not going to add value to your life, if you are not getting better at work, in life, then you are not focusing on what is important to you.

You are focusing on the wrong things. You are focusing on distractions.

Remember, we are not going to be here forever. So if you want to get ahead in your life, do not waste a second on anything that is not going to change the direction of your life.

There are distractions everywhere. But if you really want to change your life, to do great things in your life, to dive into the unknown, to know what you don’t know, and to unlearn what you know before, you must focus on what matters to you, not to others.

What are you doing to sharpen your focus?
