Five Minute Friday!
Now, set your timer, clear your head, for five minutes of free writing without worrying about getting it right.
1. Write for 5 minutes flat – no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking.
2. Link back here and invite others to join in.
3. And then absolutely, no ifs, ands or buts about it, you need to visit the person who linked up before you & encourage them in their comments. Seriously. That is, like, the rule. And the fun. And the heart of this community.
Oh and Ahem, if you would take pity and turn off comment verification, it would make leaving some love on your post that much easier for folks!
OK, are you ready? Please give us your best five minutes on:::
Focus…
Today I must focus. It’s been a crazy week and I have much to do this weekend.
Yet my focus must not be on just this weekend’s activities.
I must focus on my children. We’ve been so busy with rocking school out, that we haven’t really done much together.
School, Soccer, Awana, all have begun to take up our time.
I must realign my focus.
I must take time out of our busyness to spend time with my kiddos.
Quality time.
Focus on building our relationships.
Mother and Son.
Mother and Daughter.
They are my most important focus.
They must come first.
Not school, not writing, not blogging, them.
My blessings in disguise 😉
Focus.
My life is so different with my little ones, much crazier it seems.
Sometimes it’s hard to see through the haze, the craze…..busyness.
Focus is a choice, I can choose to run constantly and just “git her done” or I can choose to focus.
Ensuring I’m not missing anything, most importantly my kiddos. My hubby. My home.
Those must be my focus.
Christ placed them in my life. To.be.my.focus.
They must be my focus.
Readjust. Realign. Zoom in. <— Tweet Me If You Like Me 🙂

I hope you have a fun fun weekend getting quality time in with those kiddos and hubby!
Aww thanks! I hope so too! Blessings!
I like this! Focus and perspective is the key to my day being great or not so great! What is most important ( perspective) and staying on track with that (focus). I like this five min idea. I like this five min idea. I have read some of the best posts from this. I might try it sometime.
Yes, focus is not always easy or natural, but it is necessary 😉 I love doing the five minute friday thing! It’s fun and doesn’t take a ton of time! 🙂 I’d love you to join in! Blessings sis!
Thanks so much! I really needed to read your thoughtful words on focus today … especially today! I love how you say that focus is a choice! I need to remember that 3 word motto at the end .. maybe I need to make a sign to hang all around work and home with those three words!
I hope you have a wonderfully focused day!

I think that’s my favorite part of the post too! 🙂 I added a “tweet” option because I liked it so much 😉 LOL! Have a beautifully focused day! Blessings!
