Attentive Quotes

Quotes About Attentiveness and Distraction

  • Those who are silent, self-effacing and attentive become the recipients of confidences.
  • Knock, knock—distractions are knocking. Distractions are everywhere in today’s fast-paced age consumed by social media. Rarely do people put down their phones or tablets to see what’s right in front of them, let alone to contemplate what’s going on inside them. It is important to find some time to get away from the noise. Get rid of the door and simply meditate—evaluate the day’s experiences and reflect on all that life has to offer beyond a hard-bodied device.
  • “Comparing yourself to others is really just a needless distraction. The only one you should compare yourself to is you. Your mission is to become better today than you were yesterday. You do that by focusing on what you can do today to improve and grow.”― John C. Maxwell
