The windows of opportunity

I read a review recently about a head torch that has two separate bulbs, one that shines a powerful narrow beam clearly showing the way ahead when you run in the dark, and the other that spreads the light wider showing what's in your peripheral vision.

I really like this concept, and the fact that they are separate emphasises the importance of both perspectives in the rest of your life.

It's really important to have a clear focus of where you're going. If you've only got a beam that shows everything ahead and in your peripheral vision equally clearly, there is too much distraction & temptation to veer off course.

But if you're only focused on the path ahead, blocking everything else from your view, you're missing the opportunity to enjoy your journey more. 

It's often what you see from the windows to either side that enhances your journey. Stopping at a viewpoint to really take in the scenery before continuing your journey can be time well spent.

So focus clearly on where you want to get to, to achieve the success you want, but make sure that you take in the scenery along the way to make it more fun. 

It can even open up new ideas for future destinations.
