The second type of quantitative data is much harder to come by and often requires surveys to get the information out of people (which we won't be covering in this post).

Focus On What You Can Control

Having a good day has everything to do with how you focus your attention. You can't control life or business, but you can control your focus. When you start focusing on what you don't have, it's only natural that your day will go downhill . Conversely, if you only focus on what's in front of you, then that's what will change.

Stuck here on earth for an extended period of time, you really only have three existential traits you can control: your vision, your values, and your focus. Given these constraints of time and space, the only thing you can focus on is what's in front of you. You can't control the past or the future, but you can decide what to focus on today. You can't control what your competitors are doing or not doing, but you can control your focus. You don't have the authority to change others, but you do have the power to change how they affect you by choosing to focus on what you can control.
