Focusing on Opportunities
This is the SECOND of two postings extending material introduced in Brain-Mind Expansion: the real You, which touched on the topic of Focus.
The previous posting spoke on Expectations.
This one elaborates on Opportunities.
When you are presented with a new opportunity, do you immediately say:
“No this looks like it’ll take me off track”, because at first, it doesn’t seem in alignment with what you’re currently doing, or what you perceive to be what you need?
Are you looking at what you need with the same mind as when you first started whatever venture you are working on?
A mind once stretched can never return to its original proportion.
However, as human beings, we still subconsciously fight new material and innovation.
One of the functions of the subconscious mind is to keep you happy and one of the functions of the conscious mind is to keep you within your comfort zone.
Unless you deliberately initiate a paradigm shift on the subconscious level, you’ll keep looking at opportunities with a non-stretched mind.
Are you looking at new offerings with your foveal vision or have you allowed your peripheral vision to assess these?
Are you asking the Cartesian logic questions introduced in the last posting?
Once you get used to asking these questions, they don’t take long.
Remember do something at least three times and the subconscious mind knows what’s expected of it when you revisit that process.
Once you really get your subconscious mind and your conscious mind to work together, you’ll be amazed at what surfaces from your mental archives.
After a while, you’ll become so used to it, you’ll actually take what’s happening for granted.
If a solution doesn’t come quickly, you’ll ask yourself:
“Okay, what have I still got to learn about this situation?”, “What am I missing?”
Then, you’ll have ideas surface that will assist you.
If this is new to you, you must trust me, and just do it for a while.
Every new skill needs an incubation period for it to become a part of you, ie at your subconscious level.
I hope this has clarified what I mean by Focus, and opening up the floodgates of your thinking.
You always attract into your life what you need at that point in time.
Your free will and strategic plan to achieve your goals determines upon what you’ll linger your focus.
After a while, with a quick skim of new material, you’ll intuitively know what is going to keep you on track and what will take you away from your desired outcomes.
