“Always remember, your focus determines your reality.” - George Lucas

A man walked into his boss's office. He told her that he was quitting because the company had a toxic work environment. The boss asked for examples, the man said, “I hear people gossiping, my direct trainer is a hypocrite, and people are on their phones all day instead of working.” The boss handed the man a full glass of water and said, “Walk around the office without spilling water three times. After that, you are free to quit.” The man did as he was instructed and came back to his boss. She said, on your walk, did you hear anyone gossiping, or being a hypocrite, or on their phones?” The man replied no to each of these. The boss said of course not because you were focused on the glass and not spilling it. The same can be applied to our lives. If we are constantly walking around and only focusing on the negative, our whole world view will be negative. If we go around looking for opportunity, we will see a world filled with positivity and opportunity to improve!
