Welcome to another episode of The Middle Aged & Miserable Podcast!
Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply tired of being caught in a cycle of frustration? In today’s episode, Pat and Chris dive deep a habit that can elevate every aspect of your life: FOCUS.
You’ve probably heard that success comes from drive, networking, money, or intelligence—but none of these matter as much as your ability to focus. Focus isn’t just the key to success; it’s also the secret to happiness. In this episode, we’ll break down why focusing on the right things can transform your life and how most of us get trapped focusing on things that don’t serve us.
We’ll talk about how inattention blindness can blind you to the good in your life, why worrying about things that haven't happened yet is a waste of precious energy, and how distractions like news, social media, and past regrets are stealing your focus. We’ll also share practical tips on how to shift your focus to what really matters: improving your future, your relationships, your health, and your happiness.
