Jesus said, "where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Matthew 6:21. So then, it seems that where your heart is, you will also find your focus.
The first step to achieving goals "on purpose" is to define success and focus. You can go as far as creating a personal mission statement or just find a picture that presents your dreams clearly enough that it helps you to consciously follow. Even the shortest of short-term goals don't happen by accident. You have to purposefully decide what to do, where it fits in your day, and how to get it done. Without direction and a map, you can get off course and end up in places you never wanted to go. A typical day can be choked with fifty things to do, many of which have nothing to do with your desired focus. When your mind and efforts are scattered like that, nothing gets done well, and some high priorities may get set aside or forgotten. With focus, distractions are kept to a minimum and your days are spent in a meaningful way. You regain control over your life, theology and approach to ministry and no longer feel like you're wasting time. Focus helps you grab onto your goals with ferocity. Focus won't let you go until the job is done. Focus is persistent, passionate, and stubborn. As you learn to live with passion, purpose and priorities, a motivating focus becomes even more important. Your focus will help you carry out your goals with passion, the right perspective and energy. Focusing gives you a solid foundation to work from. It's great to care about what you do, but you need to be moving in the right direction and that means you must focus.

The Theology of Focus
Bishop Kafela presents a composite view of life from a point of reference focusing on the end result of your life’s ambitions. He stresses that having to many irons in the fire at one time does not allow for completing any one thing in a timely or positive manner. This writing states that one must be concise and focused on the main objective for the results to end favorably. The vision that we have in life must be one that speaks of our well thought out and planned efforts. Your focus cannot be what others have for you, it will not be totally yours and the demise will be inevitable because it is not you passion. Bishop Kafela offers a wealth of knowledge that will engage and give direction for positive results, which includes Faith, Obedience, Commitment, Unity, and Servanthood. Using this text as a point of reference is an excellent source for those who are seeking guidance in making well-rounded vision planning.
