I've never wanted to do just one thing. I don't have an attention span for that. I can focus really well on one thing - what's in front of me.

Christopher Jackson

Earlier, I would never focus on how I looked because I thought I was just 'OK.' So my focus was on being well-read, good in studies, school captain. My personality depended on what I read, not on some magical genetic thing.

Sobhita Dhulipala

I'm the kind of person who likes to focus on one thing at a time. I'll focus on my skiing and then when I get to the bottom of my run and the cameras are on me, I'll focus on what I need to say, and then I'll focus that night on recovering and getting ready for the next day.

Nick Goepper

I told our employees several times, 'Let's focus on the end user, let's focus on committing to society, and focus on the crisis and doing the right thing, show our corporate social responsibility.' Don't focus on marketing and sales. That's horrible culture.

Eric Yuan

I've just been trying to improve - it's a not a deliberate thing to focus on one thing.

Owen Farrell

I focus on one thing and one thing only - that's trying to win as many championships as I can.

Kobe Bryant

A lot of people have problems thinking of you doing more than one thing. If you do one thing, then you couldn't possibly do another thing well. Of course, we know that's not so.

Joel Grey

The one thing that I realize - well, not the one thing, but it was a big thing - having in my head that I need to get healthier. It's been a very gradual process for me.

Octavia Spencer

Later in life, one of the compensations is gliding effortlessly into focus in a thing. Since it is who we are, anything that is not the focus or supportive thereof is just not us. Even outside issues, when they arise, are interesting in that they only help define the focus more clearly.

Twyla Tharp

The most important thing is to focus, focus, focus.

Lei Jun

Fight against something and you focus on the thing you hate. Fight for something and you focus on the thing you love.

Simon Sinek

When something in life occurs that is troubling, we are supposed to not dwell on the thing itself. Instead, the focus should be on our obligation to turn this bad thing into something beautiful. It's not easy. But, if you focus your creative energy away from self-torture and onto ‘how you can turn this into something beautiful’ pretty remarkable things start to happen.
