Changing the Focus for Success

Changing the Focus for Success


When first taking a shot of this gorgeous southern Utah sunset, I thought the tree was in the way until adjusting the focus. Squatting to the ground, it became obvious that the tree is what makes this photo successful.

 

A true standout!


When progress becomes impeded, changing the point of view rather than accepting what is before you, is necessary. The solution might just be one step forward or one back, higher, lower or a mere turn away.

 

Business requires adapting to whatever presents. Some days, everything can go well, while others are difficult, where everything becomes challenging. Knowing how to act or react appropriately determines the direction and by all means, set right the focus if finding yourself getting in the way!

 

Happy Monday all!

Hi Wanda- You need to frame this!!!! Love your analogy. We can often become so bore sighted on our target that we miss something much better.

Thank you Kathy Streib! Some fantastic things happen when looking at the entire picture as opposed to just one part of it.

Hi Wanda,

As you were describing your fabulous image, I was thinking that the tree is what made the photo.  It is a classic photo.  when that perfect image happens it reminds me of being in the right place at the right time.  

Sometimes just changing your perspective can make all the difference!

That day, I was determined to get an unobstructed sunset photo and, instead, this became THE SHOT once realizing it was amazing, Sheri Sperry - MCNE®!

Good morning Wanda. Your explanation of the photo reminds me of an affirmation:

I don't solve problems.

I change my way of thinking.

The problems solve themselves.

Enjoy your day.

This is probably adaptation of its best and you will always know how to do it perfectly but you try anyway

i love your photo with the tree in the sunset.  Actually, I believe the sunset with a treed background makes it pop beautifully.
