Refocus Quotes

• Es hora de reorientar nuestra lucha global contra el terrorismo. Debemos abandonar las políticas centradas en Irak, que están agotando nuestros recursos, y centrarnos en Al Qaeda y sus afiliados, que al parecer operan en unos 60 u 80 países de todo el mundo.

• ...Force yourself to use the optimist's explanatory style: 'The situation is temporary. The effect will be limited, not pervasive. And it's due to external causes.' If you just can't make that work for you, refocus your attention...Turn your attention in a totally different direction for the time being. Replace the distressing thoughts with other ideas. Distract yourself.

• There is a fine balance between honoring the past and losing yourself in it. For example, you can acknowledge and learn from mistakes you made, and then move on and refocus on the now. It is called forgiving yourself.

• Hace cuatro años, prometí poner fin a la guerra de Irak. Y lo hicimos. Prometí volver a centrarme en los terroristas que realmente nos atacaron el 11 de septiembre. Lo hemos hecho. Hemos frenado el impulso de los talibanes en Afganistán y, en 2014, nuestra guerra más larga habrá terminado. Una nueva torre se alza sobre el horizonte de New York, Al Qaeda está en vías de ser derrotada y Osama Bin Laden ha muerto.

• Los líderes deben salir de su zona de confort pero permanecer en su zona de fuerza. Cuando su trabajo se encuadra dentro de sus dotes y puntos fuertes naturales, los líderes obtienen el mayor rendimiento en productividad y satisfacción. La vida es demasiado corta para vivir en la zona de confort, donde el crecimiento, los logros y la realización de su potencial pasan a un segundo plano. Le sugiero que vuelva a centrarse si la zona de confort es su prioridad de liderazgo.

• Happy couples make it a habbit to refocus. Because it's quite normal to be distracted. So they talk. They get away for a while. They pray. They go on a marriage retreat. They take a second honeymoon or a 3rd, or 4th, or a 5th...

• Los estudios cerebrales sobre ejercicios mentales en los que se mantiene una concentración única y elegida demuestran que cuanto más te separas de lo que te distrae y vuelves a centrarte en aquello a lo que deberías prestar atención, más se fortalece este circuito cerebral.

• As I continue to teach, I have more to offer my students, and as I continue to teach, I have more to learn from my students. I do know some writers who feel very drained when they leave the classroom, and for me this would be a sign that maybe it's time to take a break or refocus because I always leave the classroom even more excited than I was when I walked in.

• En lo que respecta a la guerra de Irak, se acabó el tiempo de las promesas y las garantías, de la espera y de la paciencia. Se han perdido demasiadas vidas, se han gastado demasiados miles de millones de dólares para que confiemos en el presidente en otra política cansina y fracasada a la que se oponen generales y expertos, demócratas y republicanos, estadounidenses y muchos de los propios iraquíes.

• I'd like to refocus everyone's attention away from the Kardashians and onto Doctors Without Borders or aid workers. Let's redefine scandal. Scandal is not who so-and-so is dating; scandal is the fact that 1.2 million people are still living in tents in Haiti, and cholera is rampant because Nepalese U.N. soldiers dumped s- from their Porta-Potties into the river. That's a f-ing scandal. If the average 15-year-old was hearing about that instead of so-and-so's plastic surgery or cheating in Hollywood, I'd feel better about our future.

• Indeed we have great reason to rejoice. If life and its rushed pace and many stresses have made it difficult for you to feel like rejoicing, then perhaps now is a good time to refocus on what matters most. Strength comes not from frantic activity but from being settled on a firm foundation of truth and light. It comes from placing our attention and efforts on the basics of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. It comes from paying attention to the divine things that matter most.

• Durante el último mes, los musulmanes han ayunado, sin ingerir alimentos ni agua durante las horas diurnas, para volver a centrar sus mentes en la fe y reorientar sus corazones hacia la caridad. Musulmanes de todo el mundo han tendido una mano de misericordia a los necesitados. En las calles de ciudades y pueblos hay mesas de caridad en las que los pobres pueden romper el ayuno. Y se distribuyen regalos de comida, ropa y dinero para garantizar que todos compartan la abundancia de Dios. Los musulmanes suelen invitar a miembros de otras familias a sus cenas de iftar, demostrando así su espíritu de tolerancia.

• Our generation grew up with the Review as a fact of life. It was America’s literary magazine. To our minds, it still is. It has launched our favorite writers. It has made a special claim for the quarterly as such, being both timely and lasting, free of the news of the day or the pressure to please a crowd. Most of all, the Review has shown, repeatedly, that works of imagination can be as stylish and urgent as the flashiest feature reporting, and can do more to refocus our picture of the world.

• Unequal Democracy is the sort of book to which every political scientist should aspire--it is methodologically rigorous, conceptually serious, and above all, it addresses urgent concerns of our fellow citizens. As Bartels shows, much of what we think we know about the politics of economic inequality is dead wrong. Bartels's perplexing and often unexpected discoveries should help refocus the gathering public debate about inequality and what to do about it.

• Let us be mindful of the foundational precepts our Heavenly Father has given to His children that will establish the basis of a rich and fruitful mortal life with promises of eternal happiness…. Brothers and sisters, diligently doing the things that matter most will lead us to the Savior of the world…. Let us make the changes necessary to refocus our lives on the sublime beauty of the simple, humble path of Christian discipleship—the path that leads always toward a life of meaning, gladness, and peace.
