Life doesn't always seem perfect, and no one’s journey is without challenges. But when you focus on what truly matters, life can become perfect for you. It all begins with a powerful yet simple concept: What you focus on grows.
At nearly 53 years old, I am living proof of this. I began practicing this mindset in my 20s, and it has transformed my life in ways I never imagined. By consistently focusing on solutions rather than problems, I’ve created a life that, while not perfect, is absolutely perfect for me. Being aware of this allows me to remind myself that it will be ok. What I focus on grows and I am growing through whatever it may be.
This isn’t just an abstract idea; it’s a practical tool for creating the life you desire. Over the years, I’ve learned that the more you focus on the good, the more good you invite into your life.
Take a moment, where has your focus been?
- Are you replaying something that went wrong?
- Dwelling on how someone annoyed you?
- Fixating on the why is this happening?
Consider this: Do you really want those feelings to grow and take up more space in your life? Probably not.
Shift your focus, acknowledging the problem is important, but don’t linger there. Instead, move quickly to solutions.
- If something went wrong, what’s one step you can take to make it right?
- If someone annoyed you, how can you let it go and maintain your peace?
- If you're fixated on the why, grow through it, and focus on something else, something that makes you happy. (The Go-To Vision from the 30 Day Self Perception Makeover)
By focusing on solutions, you’re shifting your attention toward something you want to grow, rather than allowing frustration or negativity to expand. This shift doesn’t just change your mindset, it all around makes you feel better.
When you focus on solutions, you radiate a different energy, a different vibe. You’re no longer stuck in the vibration of frustration or annoyance. Instead, you’ve opened a flow that aligns with what you want.
This isn’t just about having a good day; it’s about creating a life that feels right for you. A life that, while never perfect in the traditional sense, is perfect for your growth, happiness, and goals.
So, the next time you catch yourself focusing on what’s wrong, take a second or 20. Acknowledge the issue, then shift your mindset to a solution. You’ll be amazed at how quickly your day and your outlook shifts.
Remember, what you focus on grows. Make it something worth growing. If this mindset has worked for me for over three decades, imagine what it can do for you starting today.
Starting with your self perception changes everything. Your Self Perception dictates the chances you take, the choices you make, the relationships you stay in, and the ones you leave, personally and professionally. Whether you want to admit it or not your life starts with your very own self perception. And you can make it the best!
