You Get What You Focus On

You get what you focus on. How many have heard that? Seems simple right? But, often the simpler they appear the deeper they run. We need to pull back the layers and find the true meaning.
For instance, you are focused on a getting a new car. It is the perfect car for you. You want that car badly. You have laser beam focus. Since your focus is on strong desire, the results is that you get more of that. More desire, more longing.
Now, what if your current circumstances predict that you are not able get that car right now. You begin to think of the lack of not having the resources to get the car. Again, you are getting more of what your mind is focused on. More feelings of lack, more circumstances that keep you from receiving that new car.
So, what can you do differently? Instead of focusing on your outgoing desire for the car, you instead focus on the internal emotions of having the car. Replay how it feels to have the car. Your mind will behave in alignment with your new thinking. You will begin to attract things, people, and circumstances that will lead you to having the car. It is a subtle difference, a difference that brings the successful use of the Law of Attraction to you.
You get what you focus on, so be careful of the way you focus. Be conscious of your consciousness.
What have you been focusing on that is keeping you from what you desire?




Hey Matt, thanks for pointing out that desire = lack. The same is true for “want” the only thing they create is more of the same. Good job.
Thanks Jonathan, I appreciate your comments.
“Now, what if your current circumstances predict that you are not able get that car right now. You begin to think of the lack of not having the resources to get the car.”
- so true. that’s why you must always phrase affirmations, goals and what you’re focusing on in the positive sense. i.e. don’t say, “i wish i didn’t have bills” say, “i wish i was financially abundant”.
really inspiring stuff.
love the design too.
all the best
