Focus
My daughter is learning to ride a bike. She can on a tricycle, but now it’s time for a bicycle (without any assisting wheels). She’s nearly 5 years old. Her friend, who is just a few months older, can already ride a bike for more than a year. She did it almost without effort, without fear. However, my daughter is a bit scared and she looks at her front wheel all the time. And if you look down, that’s where you will end up, on the street. Humans move in the direction of their focal point. So now, I’m teaching her to focus on the point at the end of the street. When I told her to focus, I realized that this is one of those basic lessons for life:
“If you want to get somewhere you should focus on it.”
Well, almost. A bicyclist can focus for the sky he will never fly. It’s more likely he’ll end up in a river or a stream.
