You Get What You Focus On

If you ride a motorbike you will be taught that the bike will go where you are looking. It follows then that we need be mindful of where we are looking, of where our focus is. If there is a patch of gravel in the road or a patch of oil on the tarmac and we focus on it then a thing called target fixation will kick in and, guess what, we will hit what we really need to avoid.

We go in the direction of our most powerful thoughts.

I have noticed a number of people telling me that the next few months are going to be tough. That may or may not be true but overly focussing on it will only serve to guarantee it for those people.

I am not suggesting we live in denial. I need to be aware of the gravel. I don’t need to focus on it.

Being aware allows me to shift my focus to the safe piece of road, I can shift my focus to the countermeasures.

Remember that the media, who propagate the doom and gloom stories are driven by the need to sell column inches (in old money). You aren’t.

You have a choice of what you focus on. Choose wisely.

So the questions for today are:

• What are you focussing on that you need only be aware of?
• What are you not focussing on, that you should be?
