Focus on What You Want instead of What You Don’t Want

You must focus on what you want; but too many people do the complete opposite throughout their day.  Especially when times are tough, they just keep feeding the negative fire the majority of the time.  And then look around and say, “Why does this always happen to me?”

Think back to your childhood, and how Big, Bold and Vivid your imagination was.  It was limitless.

I remember catching the winning touchdown in the end zone to win the Super Bowl for my favorite team just about every Sunday for more than a few seasons!  Or being the heavyweight champ of the world even though I was 100 pounds too light.  ;-)

Why is your imagination so important to reach your goals?

We think in pictures.  If I ask you to NOT think of a Christmas tree, what happens?  A picture runs across the top of your mind and you see your version of a Christmas tree.

An important step in attaining your goal is to OWN It!  You must see yourself in that new car, house, as the CEO, or whatever your goal is.  You need to tap into this intellectual gift you were given.  Without learning to master this exercise on a daily basis, you will have a major struggle attaining the really big ones!

That is why imagination is your secret weapon.

“Weak  desires bring  weak  results,  just  as  a  small  amount  of  fire  makes  a  small amount of heat.”   ~ Napoleon Hill
