When you set your eyes on too many things you will not accomplish anything of value.

It sounds like a “word of zen” its simple yet powerful in its own right.
I think this could be in a publication of quotes – followed by being underneath everyone’s emails :)
Keep sharing!
I’d say it’s a dim outlook only to be achieved by someone with a pessimistic outlook. I would find that if you set your eyes on a lot of goals you’re bound to achieve something of value, something has to happen.
The impression it made on me is that if you try to do too many things, especially at once, you are doomed to failure for there is only so much time in a day or so much energy one has and certain things require more attention and demand more skill than others. One can’t be good at everything, it’s impossible though I guess one can try, but it sets one up for failure at some of the things. Interesting quote.
I enjoy this quote because it is very true. It will make one think and say one thing at a time and one day at a time. That is what it conveys to me.
This definitely rings true for me.
I have so much I want to do, and I try to do it (or rather take it all in) at once, that I get overwhelmed and distracted and nothing ever gets done.
I learned the hard way too!
I totally agree with this quote, because when people take many things to do at once, they become some kind of lost.. they want to do this and that, they “run” from one to another thing. So because person is “running”, the things he does lose their quality and their value. In person’s head is some kind of mess then and he can’t concentrate on the things he does more than he could if he did one thing. And that’s why there are more mistakes..
Well you just put one of my weaknesses in words that are just perfectly precise.
I just have so many ideas when I write that I can never accomplish writing ‘a’ story. It’s quite disappointing actually. Good work, though I don’t think it will be memorable.
I would write it thus:
Set your sights on too many things,
and you won’t end up with anything!
Only because I like the rhyme. :)
