 If you're like many people who suffer from some sort of impaired vision, an eye exam is typically required at least once a year to test where your vision is currently. The routine almost becomes standard...we hear "Is it better with 1? *optometrist flips lens* or 2? 3? or 4?". The series of tests almost becomes a guessing game as to how sharp the letters on the eye chart come into view.

During this test as the eye doctor is shuffling through the various lenses, the picture can become blurred for two reasons: either the lens is not providing enough focus, or the lens is too strong and over focusing on a single area. Both of these can cause discomfort and even headaches if held for too long.

In the same way, how we approach our goals can be similar. Often we set goals but either don't put enough focus into seeing them completed, or we put too much focus into a small area, and miss out on the overall big picture. In like manner, both of these too can cause headaches and frustration when prolonged.

For this week's seed idea, we want you to examine where you are with some goals you have set for yourself. Now would be a great time to sit down and really assess where you are with completing them, and if anything needs to be adjusted so that you can be fully successful while maintaining balance. You can do it!

We'd like you hear some of the things that help you stay focused, so drop us a line at oneseed365@gmail.com. Thanks as always for helping us change the world, one seed at a time!
