The Power Of Positive Focus 

When you are thwarted, it is your own attitude that is out of order.

~ Meister Eckhart

You’ve heard about the power of positive thinking 100 times; just make it your default attitude and success will naturally and effortlessly follow. But it’s not enough to just think positive. You want to work toward positive focus, not positive thinking. So, what’s the difference?

Positive thinking tends to gloss over “negative” reality. It also doesn’t always account for personal responsibility. You can focus on finding more opportunities to make money, but that doesn’t change the fact that you have to eat today. And you can’t change a car accident by thinking, “If I drive away, maybe nobody will notice.”

Positive focus means living firmly in the present and getting the most out of it, while understanding that the choices you make now will affect the future. It also acknowledges that everything has both a positive and a negative side.

Most people spend their day thinking and talking about what they don’t want. Well, guess what? What you focus on expands! You may not be able to control the facts of life but you can control how much attention and significance you give them.

If you want more money, don’t focus on the money you don’t have. That only places more emphasis on the lack in your life. Focus on earning and accumulating more money, for whatever reason drives you toward that goal. If you want to change your job or career, don’t focus on how much you hate what you’re doing now. Focus instead on discovering a great opportunity. Focus on solutions, not problems

The mind is limited in its conscious attention. You can only entertain one focus at a time.  Positivity is one of the greatest secrets to both happiness and success, so make sure you choose positive focus.
