Quotes to ponder:

"Focus has two parts: executive, or selective attention, what we choose to pay attention to and zoom in on mentally, and second it’s essential to be able to zoom out and see relationships between things, to understand context."

"Learning swiftly and retaining learning is key in today’s speedy workplace."

"Personal ability is two-fold. First it means the individual demonstrates knowing themselves, being clear on their motives, their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats."
