Where Your Focus Goes....

---

There is a secret that has been passed on by the most successful throughout history.  It was articulated by everyone from Lao Tzu  to Aristotle.  The secret was even referenced multiple times in the Bible.  

The secret I am talking about?  The power of focus.  Where your focus goes, your results will follow.  On the surface, this seems pretty obvious and common sense.  But, it goes deeper.  Your subconscious mind perceives your focus and acts on it for you 24 hours a day.  It works while you sleep, while you are doing your daily work, and even when you are exercising or watching TV.  

So, if what you focus on expands in your life, then it is very important to have a good grasp and plan for what you are focusing on in your life.  When is the last time you stop and asked yourself, "What I am focused on in my life?"  or maybe, "What am I focused on this week?  or "What I am focused on today?"

One thing I have found over time is the power of weekly and daily "to do" lists to help with focus.  You should always have your bigger long-term goals for 6-12 months as a backdrop and review them, but your weekly and daily "to do" lists are the focuses that help get you there.  

If you are someone that doesn't practice starting your day with a plan and mission to accomplish a "to do" list, give it a shot and watch how amazingly more productive you are.  The focus that you give yourself and your subconscious will manifest in your work and your results.  This is another simple secret that many of the most successful practice.

Remember, where you focus goes, your results will follow.  Find a way to make sure you are focused on the right things every day!
