The takeaway: -Destroy nervousness in order to focus -Destroy nervousness by taking attention off negative things and worries, and place it on neutral things -Stop looking to future success, look to the now -Focus on one thing, and do it really really well -Play to your strengths -Make a dont-do list Loved her line "...and still today, I can remember that smell of lead and loneliness." Reveals what it takes to be the best! At the end of the day it is not the remarkably insightful which become the world champions, it is the determined and focused.

Only from time to time, stop looking to future goals and look to the now. Actually, I would say our sense of future and present time should not binary but a continuum: there are long-term goals and short-term goals, and goals for every timespan you can name; so you can look from the far future (let's go to Mars) to the nearer future (let's launch this rocket) to the more immediate future (let's assemble these components).

Her point about removing the goal to understand the work in the moment rather than imagining the future is brilliant, as is her second point that if we don't stay focused in the present then we are chasing what we are not, and what we don't have, and our time erodes and our future is stolen from us.

One day I was studying in library in my University, after I finish solving a hard problem, for just a moment, maybe less than one second, I forget where I am, and i forget what is the time, and forget my friends who come along with me. Soon after that, everything recovers, however, I still remember that strange feeling.

The best explanation about Focus that I heard. Eliminate disturbing thoughts, one focus at a time, forget new and better thoughts for now. Focus on your inner core, with your innate skill (learn, listen, empathize). Focus on the here now and not the future. List not-to-do list and refrain from it. You don't need an immediate response. We have to control the pressure intensity of activities of the society and not the activities of the society have to control us. These are the core of Focus.

If he's firing in order to win a bronze buckle, becomes anxious. If the prize is of gold, he becomes blinded or sees two marks... He has lost his mind! His ability has not changed. But he's riven by the prize. He's worried, thinks more of winning than of firing... And the need of winning steals his power".

@@christinabengtsson1 : It reminds me, of the story from the Srimad-Bhagavatam: when Arjuna (from Bhagavad-Gita; the most faros archer): is at the sayambhu ceremony. In ancient days, a sayambu; was the way a prince won His queen. Usually involving an, almost possible target. This case; a fish, spinning on a wheel; looking at the target through a reflection in water. He did it, the same way as Christine: by totally focusing on the eye of the target. He hit His mark and won the beautiful Queen Drupadi. A story every Indian knows. The problem, she states very well. I'm afraid that getting bombarded by all these chenilles: nano particles (in the vaccines, chemtrails & food), all designed, I'm afraid to say. Is what is robbing us, from our natural abilities.

**All my notes regarding with Christina** Focus is choosing the one, right thought among thousands of thoughts. 1. Notice disturbing thoughts and separate them from the "not disturbing" thoughts. Neutral thoughts like a lamp or a dot. 2. Focus is knowing that we already are and understanding this is already enough for both happiness and great achievements. 3. The more possibilities, the more there is to refrain from. Make a Not-To-Do List, and your brain will automatically shift in focus 4. Learn to direct our attention inwards, to our inner core. To that which doesn’t need a constant response. *Her other speech video* 2:13 It's all about the thoughts you think, why you think them, and to ignore the distracting thoughts. 3:38 Why we lose focus. Outer and Inner distractions 4:20. 6:28 Find out what is important, and what is not important. Find out your core identity and stick to that. 6:57 Focus on the process, and on the long term. 8:50 See how much we don't need. 9:40 4 Tips -- 1. Sharpen your mind and Mark your distractions. 2. Reinforce your ability to ignore them. 3. Find your inner core identity, what's important for you. 4. Decide what Not To Do. Make a Not-To-Do List.

Is this what a guardian angel sounds like?? Cause her voice had the same intensity as a warm blanket on a chilly afternoon

Taking bits and pieces from TEDx talks is like putting together puzzle that will help me to become more enlightened human being 😊. I valued her speech.

This was an interesting video and three ways of our brain getting distractions. The key fact from there for me is the separation of distracting thoughts from the other. Focus is like a muscle, we need to train it. Before I though that just knowing about will be supportive but remember that "thought" without an action is like a bird in the cage. Looks good but won't travel the world.

I learned focus through 2 things. 1 the recognition that those thoughts can be thought about later, and 2 write down those I am afraid to forget. Then of course practice holding the ability over a duration of time such as reading or meditation but as long as you feel your thoughts are important you will not let them go.

This is an amazing talk. Had to keep stopping it to write down lots of quotes to keep this in mind.

It resonates with the idea of achieving depth not width in areas in our life. True expertise can be established through focus and this allows us to get rid of unhelpful possibilities that prevents us from achieving the life we want.

Making a "Not to Do" List... That's just crazy enough to work! ("Do not Binge for more than an hour on Ted Talks when you are supposed to be writing or working." Gotta try that tomorrow.
