I'm not a pop song lyric writer. I can't just focus on one simple meaning or even a double entendre.
The 'looking forward' so prevalent in the late 1990s was bound to end once the new millennium began. Like some others of that era, I predicted a new focus on the moment, on real experience, and on what things are actually worth right now. Then 9/11 magnified this sensibility, forcing America as a nation to contend with its own impermanence.
When writers don't know what to do with a character, they build up the supporting cast and universe to kind of hide that fact. After a while, you can no longer see the character for the underbrush. When that happens, you need to bring out the weed-whacker to clear some of that away so you can focus on the main character.
My main focus is on my game.
My music is - I don't want to say my main focus, but it's what comes most naturally to me.
I know people are going to put the main focus on stopping me, so I need to learn how to make my teammates better by passing and creating opportunities for them.
I think I have made a difference. I have meant a lot to my people. I have done well. They are proud of me. And that was the main focus. I was doing it for my people, the people who support me.
Since 2000, it's been a privilege and honor for me to be on the competition committee. And our main focus... is player safety.
I love Hootie & the Blowfish and what we do, but that's not my main focus anymore.
I think the main focus in America is - is basically greed.
My main focus is to always try to be myself first, and then, hey, if I wear a cool jacket, that's a bonus.
Chasing the sensation. Whether it was drugs or sex or whatever. Those things had become my main focus in life.
I don't attend an actual school but I'm still following through with high school. I do work with a tutor for about six hours a day. It's hard core but definitely worth it, and it's my main focus now - finishing up high school before I release my new album and apply to college.
My main focus in sobriety has been to replace fear with faith or love.
I believe that for lots of churches and religious institutions, their main focus on the development of faith among parishioners needs to spread to the community.
If I'm thinking about a particular injury, then I'm already a step behind. If I'm so gun shy in the pocket and not worried about the receivers that are open down field, something's going to happen that's not going to get the job done. So my main focus is having confidence in myself knowing that I'm able to be myself when I'm out there.
Writing a novel is so hard, and there are so many problems that the last thing you're thinking about is adapting this mess you have on your hands as a movie. You just want to get it to work as a novel. That's your main focus.
I studied theater in college, and I really wanted to be an actress and play a lot of different roles. Then I made landing on a television comedy my main focus.
As an actress, to get to work on a project where the main focus is the female voice is rare!
There's something about majors where I just focus a lot more. Obviously, I need to do that more often.
