The Power of Focus
Many books and articles talk about ‘focus’. Some related terms you may be familiar with include:
- attention
- intention
- goals
- ambition
- desire
- decision
- choice
All of these words offer further ways of understanding the importance and value of focus.
As a conscious reality creator in training or already skilled in the art – we need to direct our energy towards the life and experiences we want (and opposed to those we may not want).
How do we do this?
We do it via our thinking. Thinking (or thought) is an awesome tool for focusing energy when applied with precision.
Once we are able to consciously and wilfully direct energy in the direction we want, we then begin to live the life we want, and even more importantly, we begin to experience greater satisfaction with our life. We develop a sense of personal power. We begin to see and know, without doubt, that we are the creators of our life and that we can control the types of people and experiences that we come in contact with.
We no longer need fear external events or people because we know how to attract only those that appeal to us.
Focusing our thoughts and our thinking, is like wielding a laser beam. And the Law of Attraction goes to work on matching our dominant point of focus, our dominant thoughts and thinking.
But this is also where many people come ‘unstuck’. We have become so accustomed to thinking counter to the many things we desire – for example through doubt, worry, anxiety and so forth – that this habitual way of responding falls beneath our radar of conscious awareness. But the Law of Attraction is responding to it nevertheless.
How can we change?
A step at a time.
In the same way that we have developed our habitual ways of thinking and responding – over time – so too for most people, it takes time to develop a new, more productive habitual response to everyday topics
But that is the challenge and the reward simultaneously. To stay at it long enough to develop a new habit of thinking. Within a relatively short time (21 days) the new habit will begin to develop its own momentum and will begin to carry us forward without our having to consciously yank our focus or attention back to where we want it to be. Less effort – more ease.
Focused thought and focused thinking is both an art and a science.
It is an art and a science that can change your life quickly – and often times, magically. It is well worth taking the time to develop this powerful skill. It will sustain you for your entire life.
