Focus: Where is Yours?
When you are born, you have no limitations, no critical faculty to entwine you with the bondage of barriers, no judgments about whether you can or can’t do something.
You are free-spirited, unshackled, without blinkers on the sides of your eyes.
Everything is new, you try it all. Stumbling, falling, nothing stops you.
Even if the adults around you have already lassoed you into their perceptions of who they think you are, you are still free – until about the age of 7, the Imprint Period.
However, the tell-tale signs are already making their mark. You are copying everything you see and hear that your carers are saying and doing – everything.
I’ve heard little girls arguing over, whose chocolate cake was the real chocolate cake, as each of their mothers had garnished it and finished it differently.
How broad is your focus even now about what you can and can’t achieve, honestly?
I don’t want to hear the garble of positive thinking clichés.
How big is your world? 360 degrees?
Most people live in a dark world of their own creation only having as lighting a little pencil-torch.
Everything outside the radius of that little pencil-torch is dark; it’s outside their focus, therefore it’s not part of their world.
Their world is enclosed like a horse in a race. The horse cannot see anywhere but straight ahead; its eye-blinkers prohibit peripheral vision.
These people have foveal vision, tunnel vision.
Open up the floodgates with a humongous floodlight, and be like the Samurai Warriors who could reportedly almost see behind them while facing forewards.
Look at a baby and very young child, their eyes are looking up, to the sides, they are constantly looking around. Their head and eyes are always moving, they are curious, inquisitive.
Where do we look as adults, mostly straight-ahead. Our necks get painful because we are mostly in the one position.
Look at the image.
Which arrows point to the way you see your life? The ones going straight ahead?
Or the ones going to your true reality, almost all the way around the floodlight?
Are you living your world in your reality or in the Quantum soup of Pure Potentiality which is your birthright, and which is still the REAL you?
Hi Gloria,
I like this post. It opens my mind to a whole new world.
However, I remember my mentor’s advice at the same time which is faocus, focus and focus to your goals.
So, should I focus or look around ????
Hi Raymond,
I love your humour.
Because your question is so important, I’m answering it with two postings.
The first is already up, it’s called: “Focusing on Expectations”.
The second, will be posted tomorrow, and is called : “Focusing on Oppotunities”.
Thanks so much for your comment.
Cheers,
Gloria
