 When asked how he came up with his Theory of Gravity, Sir Isaac Newton replied, "I thought about it all the time." I suppose if he had been more distracted, those ideas would have landed on someone else, or we wouldn't have done all the things we have done based on Newton's observations. The fact is that we really can't imagine what the world would be like if some of our greatest thinkers had other things to do - like watching television, texting their friends, or playing video games.
Tomorrow will look a lot like today for most people - except a little "worse." The average person simply spends too much time thinking about too many different things to put enough focused energy into any of them to truly experience success. You may think that God, or the Universe, or whoever is listening to your prayers and wishes, is only paying attention when you bow your head, or say, "I wish for...;" but the Universe never sleeps, always listens, and always answers. And the wheel of creation is always turning; even when you aren't paying attention to your thoughts, your thoughts are creating things. Don't think that it was someone else's thoughts and decisions that created your life.
All great religious philosophies teach that we are created, and our experiences are shaped, by our thoughts. "As a man thinketh, so it is done to him," is a teaching that appears in practically every language and religion; so what if your thinking is distracted and chaotic? That's right; your life will match your thinking in one way or another unless you decide what you want for yourself and focus some mental energy in that direction. You can only think about one thing at a time; if you spend your time keeping yourself distracted and entertained, when are you planning on creating your future? Think about it.
