If you use mind power to focus consistently on what you want, you will get it! It’s that simple. However many people fail to focus correctly and end up getting nowhere or even worse getting something they don’t want.

What happens when you focus is that you start making pictures of what you want. You’ve probably experienced this as you dream about your holidays, going out for a great day with your loved ones, or having a great meal at your dream restaurant. - When you had these dreams, did they not have a tendency to come true?

The processes of focussing works because your mind creates an image of what you want. It creates pictures, sounds, feelings and sometimes even smells and tastes. The way that the pictures are made up will be unique to you as an individual, however, we all do this in one way or another.

These pictures are then fed to the subconscious mind, which will then take them and start figuring out how to get the pictures you’ve been showing it. Over time, with persistence in focussing on one thing, and taking the actions that occur to you, you will find that you will obtain the thing you have been picturing, step by step.

Use mind power for success

The good news is that you can use this same mind power to achieve all your goals. What you have to do is build a dream about any goal that you want to achieve.

There are many ways that you can do this. One popular way is visualization in which you literally picture yourself having achieved your goal – just like you pictured yourself at your favourite restaurant eating that meal.

The picture should be vivid, it should be ‘real’, it should be charged with emotion. Just like your dream. Use your mind power to maximise the clarity of your dreams. You should write it down because you are going to have to come back to this same dream time and time again until you have go there!

Once you have your dream, use mind power to play back that dream as often as you can. Once a day is good, ten times is much better. I find that one good visualization session a day combined with playing back highlights at other times is very effective.

Warning – there’s a “bug” in your mental software!

One mistake people sometimes make is to focus on what they don’t want. For example your goal might be “I don’t want to be poor” rather than “I want to be rich”.

The problem is that if you focus on not being poor, rather than being rich, you are going to form pictures of being poor and show these pictures to your subconscious mind. The bug is that your subconscious mind doesn’t understand the word “not” so it take the pictures at face value and gets you what you’ve shown it – poverty.

Do you know if your mind’s focussing on what you want

This bug is very dangerous. You may spend a few minutes a day doing some good positive visualization and then for the rest of the day you may return to your normal mental state of avoiding what it is you don’t want. This will undo all the good work and effort you’ve put in during the positive visualizations.

As well as using your mind power for positive focussing on your goals, you must use your mind power to make sure you don’t inadvertently focus on what you don’t want. It’s not easy and it may take some time to master this, but it’s worthwhile if you can.

Use your mind power to focus on what you want and to avoid focussing on what you don’t want. Use your mind power persistently and take action and you will achieve your goals and dreams!
