If you focus on bitterness, you destroy your life.

About This Quote

When you focus on your shortcomings and make them the center of your life, you destroy your life. The things we focus on can be positive or negative and more often than not, the things we focus on are negative. If we choose to focus on our flaws, we will see sorrow in everything that happens to us. Not only that, but the things that bring the most happiness end up being the things that bring the most grief as well. On the other hand, when you focus on your strengths and take action to make them stronger, you end up becoming a better person.
