NOTES : FOCUS on your JOB
Much have been said about Bobby Fischer’s talent and genius as a chess master.
However, talent alone is not enough. I think what needs to be highlighted is not the prodigious talent of Bobby but the story that he focused and worked 15 to 16 hours a day doing nothing but chess.
As his nemesis, Boris Spassky said, ‘ Chess is like Life‘. But Bobby Fischer said, " Chess is Life".
Maybe that singular focus was instrumental in his success in chess, in his chosen endeavor and craft. But that same paranoia served him not well as he was generally regarded not a success in life.
Success has a price, and it is important that you know the price you are paying for.
I quote another person which can be something to think about, " Came, Saw, Conquered, had second thoughts."
