- The Focus Factor – What do you want in relation to your life?
If you are like most people you will have said ‘I want to stop feeling depressed,’ I want people to leave me alone’ or ‘I want my wife/husband to stop nagging me.’
One of the most basic psychological rules in life is ’you always get more of what you focus on.’ Yet in each one of the examples above, your mind has to focus on what you don’t want in order to make sense of what you said – the depression you want to get rid of, the people you want to leave you alone, or the nagging you want to be rid of. This not only reinforces the image you have of yourself being depressed, harassed or nagged it tends to leave you feeling helpless, hopeless and unmotivated.
When you redirect your focus exclusively on to what you want – to feel vibrant and alive, to enjoy a peaceful life with cooperative people or to have a happy and fulfilled marriage – you are sending a message to your subconscious mind to find and explore every possible opportunity to move towards your goal. By clarifying and vividly imagining exactly what it is you want for yourself, you are beginning the process of training your mind and body to give it to you.
