Focus

I am done

with great things and big things

with great institutions and big

success.

And I am for

those tiny, invisible, molecular

moral forces

that work from individual to individual

through the crannies of the world

like so many rootlets

or like capillary oozing of

water

yet which, if you give them time

will rend

the hardest monuments of man’s

pride.

~William James (from a letter to Mrs. Henry Whitman, 1899)

Just a good thought to think about in any time--just as relevant in 2014 as in 1899. What are you going to focus on?
