Focus

昨日着付けのレッスン中に、多分年下である厳しい先生に何度も言われた言葉：「他の部分を気にするのは後で良いから、今やっていることに意識を集中して」。わたしの人生全般において当てはまる言葉だと思うので、覚えておこう。

A kimono instructor I had yesterday was far stricter than others, though she looks younger than myself.  She told me during the lesson, "Focus on what you are doing at this very second, worry about other parts after that".  I kept looking around the entire parts and tried to check the balance, for there are lots of places you have to hold on to while tying belts and strings. 
I think the word applies to my life, not just for wearing kimonos. I should learn to focus.
