Life working on the Bakken Formation oil fields in North Dakota can be pretty brutal this time of year. It’s cold. It’s windy. Mother Nature is relentless. But at least some of the rig workers can count on pretty comfortable digs to return to when those long shifts end. That’s because Target Logistics is on the job. The site services company is building worker camps throughout the state – and the accommodations are compared to university housing with housekeeping service and some good eats.

Rather than the old term, “man camps,’’ Target CEO Brian Lash likes to call his company’s housing and food service “lodges,’’ and he explains why in the story. He believes a cozy place to sleep and recreate and high-quality meals around the clock translate into happy, productive workers. Read on to see how the Target staff meets those goals.

In addition to the section on “Staying in moment”, it cannot be overlooked that the human mind is a powerful tool for fulfilling our desires. It is said, “What you put your attention on, grows.”

If we focus on the failure, rather than the lessons learned and the valiant attempt made, then it will likely grow in our experience, further reinforcing the negative thinking, as if it were justified. Instead, it is the “doom and gloom” that becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Some people are very prophetic in that regard.

Better to put the attention where you would like to be and consistently put forward the efforts in that direction. Somehow, some way, that positive persistence draws support, ultimately, from those around us. Success breeds success, and most other people want to see us succeed. Only by moving in that direction will we get where we want to go.

Spend your efforts where they will add to your success, but most importantly, put your attention and mind-set on the goal. It can only grow closer with the greater focus.
