Change your FOCUS and change your LIFE!
This picture illustrates to me a “change of focus”. While being on a walk through a park, my focus was on the colored leafs and trees. It was my husband who pointed these “beauties” out to me. I was just “awed”. I had never before seen them so big and so bright. To me these fly agaric mushrooms just looked like they had popped out of a children´s book.
This reminded me of a principle of life: “We don’t experience life. We experience the life we focus on.” (Tony Robbins)
Are you happy with your life as it is? If your answer is YES!... then I say from the bottom of my heart, “Congratulations!” You are one of the few exceptions in this world who say that. Tell me, what is your secret? If you half-heartedly answer “NO,” then my question for you is: “Do you want this to change? Do you really want to be satisfied and happy with your life?”
If you say YES, I would like to experience the beautiful life of my dreams, then I have an encouraging answer for you: It is possible!! I've experienced it. You can experience it, too. HOW?
One aspect is through change of your FOCUS: “We don’t experience life. We experience the life we focus on.” (Tony Robbins) Focus means concentrated attention and where attention goes, energy flows.
First step: Ask yourself, where does my focused attention go to? This is so important, because it is exactly what you will get! If you put your focused attention on your problems, you will only see more of them.
Today, what do you decide to focus on? How about instead of focusing on all of your difficulties, you focus on the opportunities within those difficulties?
Second step: Take control of your focus! How?
Ask yourself: “What is the name of my problem, my “dragon” that threatens me?”
Give the dragon a name.
Then think, “What opportunity for learning and growth do I see in this problem? How can this make me stronger?”
When you focus on FEAR or worry, your brain distorts, deletes, and generalizes information and toxic thoughts begin to grow like weeds. The result is uncertainty and fear. The only thing that can really stop you is FEAR!...fear of failure, ....fear of rejection..., fear of what people will think and say...
Imagine this fear as a dragon that not only threatens you, but also wants to kill you. With what attitude do you want to face and fight the dragon of rejection, manipulation, discouragement, victim mentality, etc.?
On the other hand, when you focus on FAITH, you focus on what you really want. You believe in something that is purposeful and true. This means that your thoughts are decided and you feel an inner certainty.
“Courage doesn’t mean that you have to shout loudly and behave conspicuously. Sometimes it's just the little voice at the end of the day that says, "I'll try again tomorrow." Need tools? Want to stay motivated?
This is the moment where I as your coach can guide you in your unique path of discovery.
A coach encourages you to design and conquer the life you really want and are actually meant to have. A coach will help you re-define your focus and recognize the opportunities that lie within your difficulties. A coach believes in you and that you have the potential to make it. A coach will celebrate with you your successes and also will make you aware of your “blind points”.
Are you ready to take this path and create the life you were meant to have?
Then today is the day! It starts with you deciding to change your focus.
I would be happy to assist you with advice and support. How?
