Thoughts become things, but which one to choose?
OK, so by now you either have heard about the Law of Attraction and forgot about it for the next exciting thought or the idea sparked your interest and you have pursued it. For the former you should at least remember the basics.
The general theory behind the law of attraction is that when you give focus to a particular thought your brain and/or body emanates a frequency that is in line with the thought. This frequency attracts likeminded people and events into you experience.
The challenge that that any modern person faces is the lack of focus, our working lives are continually revised for efficiency and money saving, selective jobs are cut and the remainder are required to multitask and spread their focus. As a result of this lifestyle, our ability to consciously manifest our desires has been limited as we have created a habit to ignore focus or specialised abilities. To really experience a desire one must pay great attention to it, be open and active towards opportunities that happen during the path of this desire.
So how do you reverse the conditioning to manifest your desires and still become an effective member of the workplace? It’s not that easy and requires a constant focus of its own. First you have to create a habit of focus, for an employee this a great challenge and also a great opportunity to learn.
Creating the habit of focus.
The trick is to “unitask” and allocate blocks of time between each item of focus, these tasks may have people attached to them and those people are expecting those tasks to be done NOW so they in turn can get their tasks for someone else that requested them NOW and so on. Be firm with these people, for if you let them push you then you end up spreading your focus and attention, leaving you without your desires. To get rid of these people tis best to be radically honest about your objectives and goals and why exactly you are doing this task for them, say how this benefits you, a lot of people seriously don’t understand why they are working for an employer but yet if those same people were to have a business or contract themselves out the picture becomes clear because they are aware of the goal. Here is an example of what you could say in a typical office environment.
“Tom, I have five tasks to work on today, yours is third in the list. The more I have to stop and talk the longer it is going to take”
Obviously you have to be diplomatic about it and if you continue to act in a rational way with these sorts of replies then people will know that it isn’t personal, don’t say sorry, are you really sorry about it? It’s important to let people know your intentions, you’re doing this for the benefit of the company or the team, the better you can focus on each task the less stressed you will be and therefore the less stress you are projecting to your nearby colleagues.
Using the habit.
1. What. Once you have the habit focus its time to apply it to your desires, think of what you really want, not a medium (money) but the end result e.g. A beautiful garden, a great body, that perfect wave, a great home etc.
2. Why. Although this point may not sound relevant it certainly is as it will allow you to focus on what you want for a longer period of time, instead of thinking everyone wants that think of why you want it, is it something you believe will bring you confidence or perhaps quality of life? E.g. I want a great home because it makes me feel comfortable and I want to feel proud of my surroundings.
3. How. The how is easier than a lot of people think, when you give pure focus towards a thing then opportunities arise, it makes perfect sense. No, this hurdle depends entirely on fear, can you ultimately get over the fear of spending money or the fear of being embarrassed? Really this fear is about loss, the best way to deal with feared loss is to think about what you would do if that loss actually happened, don’t focus on the loss itself but on your recovery from the loss, your rise from the ashes. Where’s the fear now huh?
Focus on the desire, focus on the potential!
