About this Quote

This quote by Greg Anderson speaks with the power of our attention and how it can form our lives. By focusing our attention on the positive elements of our lives, we can create a sense of joy and satisfaction. Conversely, if we focus our attention on the unfavorable elements, we can create a sense of distress and frustration. The quote suggests that if we can move our focus from the unfavorable to the favorable, we can experience a greater sense of happiness in our lives. This is due to the fact that our attention is an effective tool that can form our thoughts, sensations, and behaviors. By focusing on the positive, we can develop a more positive outlook and experience greater pleasure and complete satisfaction. For that reason, this quote motivates us to take control of our attention and use it to create a more positive and satisfying life.
