Stay Focused
We are living in a place and time where there is so much going on around us.
Much crime and violence abound. It used to be that when people committed
crimes they would wait until the dark of night. Not now, they will shoot, steal, or
assault you in broad daylight. They run into stores, snatch, and grab in the
daytime. They break into our cars in the daytime. There are mass shootings in the
daytime. A coup was orchestrated at our nation’s capital a couple of years ago in
the daytime. In the midst of everything going on, we must always remember to
stay focused. Always be aware of your surroundings, and pay attention to the people you
pass on the street. Be aware of subliminal cues. Look at facial expressions, take
note of certain kinds of gazes as people are looking at you. Take note of erratic
behavior such as excessive twitching, wild eyes, and individuals talking to
themselves. Be aware when you are driving. Take note of excessive speeding or
reckless drivers and stay clear of them. Never engage with another individual in a
road rage incident. Try to remove yourself and immediately call law enforcement.
Do not drive closely behind or on the side of eighteen-wheelers. If a tire on these
big rigs blows it can be a disastrous experience. When you enter a business
establishment the first thing to take note of are the exits. In this day and time,
you never know when you will have to exit in a hurry. In other words, don’t walk
around distracted. Always be aware of your surroundings. It could be a matter of
life and death. These are things that we all have to remind ourselves of
occasionally. We get so caught up in our day-to-day lives that we don’t think of our
own personal safety. Let’s make it a point to take care of ourselves and stay safe.
Thumbs up, like, and share.
