You are focused on something.
It’s a truism you cannot not be focused 🙂
So long as your brain is functioning it is focusing on something.
Are you focused on the right things?
How do you know?
Right things?
We all know the crucial importance of focus.
And thinking about focus this way was a huge leap for me.
Because all the time we hear and speak about focus like this thing you lack.
When the truism is you’re always focused on something, just are you focused on the right things?
And this leads to the question I’m asked all the time, how do you know if you are focused on the right things?
How?
An issue with how is, when… and you 🙂
Coz it comes back to only you can know what is the right focus for you, when.
First waking up in the am for instance, where you put your brain is crucial to how you’re starting your day, so where are you best to focus?
During the day too of course your brain is having some 85,000+ automatic thoughts and bouncing around from this, that to the other thing, how good are you at keeping that brain focused on your best things?
How about staying focused on your best winning!?
Winning!
See, this has all become so regimented for me.
Every second of my life I’m either living in my best brain or I’m failing.
Yes, of course this is an unreasonable and impossible standard but operating my brain this way and building a school of therapy and transformation for doing this is BY FAR the most important thing I have done in my life. Period. Everything else is background noise.
It’s not just because you get to live in your absolute best thoughts, feelings, actions as many seconds a day as possible.
But also because you’re unlocking your absolute best mind and actions for achieving what you truly want.
What?
This is why goals are so crucial for maintaining your focus.
Because you see I’m saying here I have two targets tattooed inside my brain driving as much focus as I can all day every day.
First, I’m focused on perfecting every moment. Yeah, again, impossible mission, but my golly the most heavenly way of living!
Second, I’m driving the brain towards my grandest vision focusing on perfecting my absolute best mind and actions.
Like come on, what more could you want to be focused on!?
Rocketing!
I began working with another VC firm this week.
They’ve made it through the hardest part of building and scaling their firm and our focus is how do we rocket to the stars from here?
It’s a hard mandate my client the CEO and his partners are of course all over but what they found was missing was no longer being the same!
What got you here won’t get you there is a powerful paradigm that comes back to focus.
Because to reach an entirely new level you must be focused on what best rockets you forward from here.
Focus on this
A way to think of focus is your brain as a spotlight.
The truism you cannot not be focused is your brain always shining a light on what you’re focused on.
Focused on the worst things in your life and our world you’ll never be thinking and feeling your absolute best.
Same way focused on the past or things that hold you back you’re failing to shine the spotlight on rocketing forward.
Focus on this.
