The Power of Focus

By Rita Hamill | 2 Comments

FocusAre you ready to start  “pulling” what it is you really want closer to you, by focusing your thoughts?

I know what you’re probably thinking – it can’t be as easy as that. There must be a catch.

The catch is that you must be100% absolutely clear on what it is you want and be in no doubt whatsoever that you will receive it!

The Right Focus

If you only think you want something, and you’re doubtful as to whether or not you’re ever going to get it anyway, be that a fabulous relationship or the ideal job, no amount of focusing is ever going to “pull” it towards you -as you are more than likely focusing on the doubt, which in turn will only pull more doubt in your direction which will repel what you truly want.

Let me give you an example: exactly 2 months ago I suddenly had a huge desire to spend a month in Ireland. Not as a holiday, but working as an actor.

As my focus sharpened on this picture in my head I “coincidentally” started to hear Irish accents everywhere; on the TV, on the radio, on the street! I started to visualize myself walking down the city streets and walking into rehearsals.

I absolutely knew I was going to Ireland for a month. I had no idea how,  I hadn’t worked in theatre in Ireland for 6 years. I didn’t need to go, but my focus and desire was so sharp that I had a “knowing” that I was going.

I even began to mentally pack my bags and decide what shoes were coming with me. Now that’s focus!

Offer

But here’s the “weird” bit. Only a couple of weeks  later I received a call from a Theatre Company in Kilkenny, Ireland offering me 5 weeks work! Needless to say I accepted immediately.

  • So what pictures are you creating in your head?
  • Why do you want it?
  • Do you really believe you deserve to have it?
  • What do you focus on every day?
  • Are you allowing yourself to pull-focus from what you truly want?

Make no mistake about it – when you focus on the reasons why you can’t achieve your goal, you just pull yourself further and further away from it.

But don’t take my word for it, experiment by  “pulling” something you really want towards you and have fun!

Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.

    Hi Rita, Thank you for this article; it is has woken me up to realise that I could make my small focus areas into much bigger areas now with the power of Focus. Having had two memorable raffle wins through focusing on the fact that I was going to win one of the prizes; not big value prizes; is proof now that my Focus had a big part to play in these wins. Now that I ‘Get it’ I will be applying ‘Focus’ a great deal more and on bigger goals and aspirations…..I would assume in order to get what I want to happen in my life would be to Focus on it, take mental possesion of it and do this in as many ways as possible while it is ahead of me and this will pull it into me. Wow I can do that…Thank you so much Rita.

    Hi, Fiona,
    thanks for your message. Yes! the power of focus is amazing. And to turbo-charge that ability to create what you want, always make sure you have that feeling of belief, that it’s already yours! This along with the intention and the focus catapults us to take action we may not have taken….So keep focusing, feeling and believing
    love Rita x
