Recently I was on a plane and was fortunate enough to get the window seat since I love scenic views. I had been taking pictures and noticed something interesting.

The window was all scratched up, and depending on how my focus was set, I could either focus on the scratches on the window, or the beautiful scene just outside.

Interesting....isn't it?
And so it is with life. You can either focus on the beauty of life, or on the "scratches." If you're going through life on auto focus, make a little shift and allow yourself to focus on something different. Your life can change for the better in a very short time when you change what you choose to focus on.
When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
- Wayne Dyer
How many times have you focused on others' shortcomings? How about turning that around the next time you catch yourself doing that and think about one thing that's good about that person?
What about yourself? When your inner critic starts hounding you about how you're coming up short, remind the little dickens about how fabulous you really are! (and if you have any doubt about that, I can help you with that -
shoot me an email and we can talk - I've got several options to help.)
Here's my challenge to you, should you choose to accept it...
Just for today, every time you judge yourself or another, think about the scratches on that window and what's just outside if you choose to change your focus just a bit.
You'll be a much happier person. Guaranteed.
