Focus and Concentrate

An ancient Indian sage was teaching his disciples the art of archery. He put a wooden bird as the target and asked them to aim at the eye of the bird. The first disciple was asked to describe what he saw. He said, "I see the trees, the branches, the leaves, the sky, the bird and its eye.." The sage asked this disciple to wait. Then he asked the second disciple the same question and he replied, "I only see the eye of the bird." The sage said, "Very good, then shoot." The arrow went straight and hit the eye of the bird.

What is the moral of the story?

Unless we focus, we cannot achieve our goal. It is hard to focus and concentrate, but it is a skill that can be learned.

The advantage about the funny pictures is
that you can watch them along with the family. It seems like the internet today is almost entirely
full of nothing but funny pictures and videos
that people use to pass their days. A few young superstars have made their name just from
being spread across the internet in videos and photos.

But it's always wise to check in with a doctor before you start using a supplement regularly. Skiing and snowboarding are strenuous sports which demand a lot of endurance, so your usual set of ten to fifteen reps really isn''. Emotion linked to a definite objective is a strong mixture.
