Day 15 of the REVIVER program and the lesson today is on the subject of Focus - which is one of the foundation principles we cover in the course - the others are all listed in the free training on the website here

 

Focus is, in essence, our attention. It is where we direct our conscious awareness. I can't see how it can't be a foundation principle of life, not least because we get what we imagine and act towards in life. If we cannot focus our attention on those things that we want or need then we tend to end up getting those things that we end up focusing our attention on.


There are multiple things that can draw our focus and our attention. Because attention has become the greatest commodity to trade in and everyone wants yours. The question is, to what degree do they have your best interests at heart?

 

The question is what are your best interests? 

What is a worthwhile use of your time and your life?

What is worth focusing on?

What is stealing or claiming your attention and not feeding you back?

 

There are so many strategies and tactics that I could invite you to try. So many things that we can point out as obstacles that get in our way, but in terms of focus, for me, it all comes down to these two simple invitations: 

 

What do we need to focus on in order to survive? 

What do we need to focus on in order to evolve?

 

Of course, we'll all come up with different answers based on our perceptions and influences. The more accurate and complete our perceptions are the better set we are to imagine and act towards realisable outcomes.

 

Wherever you're at, I wish you accurate perceptions and the focus you need to survive and evolve.

2 minute read   We are as much shaped by the ideas and beliefs that colonise our minds as we are by the physical limitations of our reality. 'Japanese knotweed is not to be ignored!' This was the sign on the van I passed today. It was a genius piece of marketing. "Are you ignoring this message which is too important to ignore?" "Are you aware of the consequences of not doing something about thi...

  Some days it is better to just sit quietly. Today is one of them.
the bastard truth
4 minute read   It doesn't matter what the threshold is, if it leads to unfamiliar territory, then the chances are it is going to be uncomfortable, because in general, anything that is unknown is unpredictable, and everything that is unpredictable contains a potential threat.   So if you want real growth, authenticity, and transformation in life, you would do well to accept that the path there,...
