This again reflects how human beings like to have a focus in life for their survival or to attain greater things in life, spiritual or otherwise or perhaps even refrain from things that are hazardous to their health.

To have a faith and to have faith in ones beliefs should form an important part in any ones life. It makes one more organized in life aiming high to achieve that goal; having a focus in life will help fulfilling that dream. Children try to please their parents and students their teachers, who help them to be better achievers and excel in their chosen profession. One feels obliged to fulfil the ideas and ideals of the person one looks up to.

The object of 'focus' may be quite different in value and authenticity, but it will be of great importance to the person concerned. It may help to put an emphasis on devotion and adhere to a well-defined moral code. One feels a deep-rooted desire to follow ones idol or the object of passion, without deviating from the right path; almost driven by the desire to please God, the object or person one looks up to. Therefore, it is of paramount importance that ones object of devotion stands for everything that is good. A force that reflects a need to be in touch with a superior force can drive the path of achievement; with appropriate human responses this can influence the lives of many of its believers.
