Your attention determines which problems receive your best intelligence.

REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

You have a limited amount of good thinking, and whatever you attend to is where it goes. Problems that never get your focused attention receive only your reflexes, which is why some important things in your life stay unsolved for years despite mattering enormously. The allocation is the decision.

Ask which problems have actually received your best thinking recently, and whether those are the ones that deserved it. Move one significant problem into a protected block this week. Where your intelligence goes is largely a matter of scheduling.

A QUESTION TO SIT WITH
