What is focus?
Focus is powerful energy connected to our awareness and attention.
I wrote about that in a previous blogpost.
When you direct all that powerful energy to one point, one thing, one task, one feeling, one dream, you are focused.
How does focus work?
In principle anything you put your energy into will grow.
That is why focus is so important when you want to create your daily practice for success.
Some people compare focus to water. I think that is a very accurate comparison.
Just like water does not se the difference between flowers and weed your focus in itself do not see the difference between “good” and “bad” focus.
It is your awareness or in other words your ability to reflect that determines your choice to focus on something fruitful.
Focus is a conscious choice you make.
You choose to focus on being irritated at something or someone instead of directing your energy towards what makes you happy.
We all make choices like this every day.
Being aware of it can help you improve your focus.
The importance of setting your own success goals
When you direct your focus on your success goal the energy get stronger.
That is why we say “where energy flows, it grows”.
It is not just a quote or a saying.
It is a universal fact.
So in order to reach your dreams in life goal setting is important even if you do not like it.
Create goals for this year and own your success
If you have not done it already I urge you to create your own success goals for this year.
Then you need to focus on that goal or goals every day.
Believe me you will grow more than you know.
Doing one important thing to make yourself or your business grow every day will become 365 important actions in a year that literally can change your life to the better.
Just think about it.
I know you can do it.
You dream of a better life.
You do not want to settle for less than you can do or be.
You dream of to use your potential the best way you can for yourself and others.
You dream of to feel fulfilled the day you die.
Am I right?
I would love to hear what you think about this.
What are your goals this year?
Feel free to share with me in the comments below.
I would love to hear your goals for this year.
My goals are to grow my affiliate business to something I can live out of.
It is all about planning ahead and take action
It means if I am going to reach my goals I use a daily practice to support it as well.
My focus demands action every day.
I use my social media planner and my normal planner – my tools.
I use a mindset and a routine for success so I will not give up when the struggles to arrive.
I use support and help from my power friends, my community while growing.
But most importantly I use to do the most important things every day.
Focus on the most important task every day that will make you grow.
There is a pattern to growing
1. You must start
Believe it or not this is the hardest part for most people.
So many questions :
How do I start?, How do I do it?, What if I fail?.
What will people say about me? How will it look?
I have never done this before…
Sounds familiar?
That is why most people procrastinate.
I know, I have done the same thing many times
Do not think – Just start!
The clearer your why is the easier it is to start.
2. You must do what is needed every day
Create a daily routine that suits your life over time.
Practice self kindness and do not forget to live and enjoy your process.
Do one thing that get you closer to your dream.
If you are writing a book – decide to write 100 words every day.
Within a year you will have more than one book.
3. You must focus on your goals
It is easy to get distracted by everything else going on in your life.
Use your planner daily to help you focus what you can grow today.
Then you will find the time needed.
4. You must be consistent
Consistency is really hard – it demands a high degree of focus and discipline to be consistent over time.
I work every day trying to be consistent on everything in my daily life, business and work.
It is hard and I do not always succeed with it.
I focus on one thing at a time I use to be consistent on to grow.
5. Don't be afraid to fail
Come to grip with your fears my friend.
Fear is what stops you from reaching your goals. And to grow
Fear of failing,
Fear of not being good enough, smart enough, good-looking enough, awesome enough, perfect enough etc.
Be more afraid of not growing.
If you fail – so what?
You can rise yourself again.
You are strong.
Learn from your mistakes and move on.
6. Be practical
Learn the skills you need to reach your dream whatever it is for you.
Right now I am learning new skills in the WA community where I have access to all kinds of training I use to grow and to reach my personal success goals.
Practice your skills and develop a good mindset for growing.
7. Never give up
Failure is when you give up on your dream.
8. Believe in your dream and in your ability to get there.
I hope this post was useful to you and contribute to you being more focused on what matters in your own growth.
I would love to hear from you in the comments below.
Hey,
Thank you for sharing this wonderful post. I have a hard time focussing from time to time. I am a master procrastinator, and I need to teach myself to focus a lot closer for a longer period of time.
I’m really inspired by your advice and I am going to put it to the test and see if I can start focussing a lot better.
I will update you on how I’m doing.
All the best,
Tom
