#FridayFocus



It might be obvious that in order to be focused you have to stay focused. But obvious is easier said than done, isn't it? We all, from time to time, need help or reminders on staying focused, this article provides some action steps to take when you need that help. And before laying out the action steps the author takes the time to remind us why it's important to have focus. I appreciated the reminders. Without focus we drift, we are directionless, we aren't positive contributors to our families or workplaces or friend groups. 

So today focus on how you might need to re-focus. *wink*

Butter someone up

There are two probable origins for this idiom and I think both are equally plausible. The first one is that when you spread butter on bread you are buttering it up like one would do when trying to flatter someone. The second is in ancient India there was a practice of throwing balls of butter at statues to ask for favor, i.e. buttering them up. ( source ) When we use the phrase today we generally mean that extreme flattery is used to gain information or favor. It's not always necessarily a compliment.
