The secret to success is focus. It’s the one secret that ties everything together. According to the law of attraction, what you focus on is what you get. Therefore, when you focus on all the qualities of success, you attract them to you. The more actions you take to success, the more success you will experience. The success of anything you do starts with focus. That’s when you muster all your powers to achieve something. The focus is an act of will that is the faculty that governs everything.
When you sit down to do work that requires thinking, you may not get inspired at first. But when you focus on the job at hand, you will begin to attract thoughts about it that you can work on. Then those thoughts will attract more thoughts and before you know it, you’re in the flow. Each time you stop, continue to focus and you will find yourself moving again. This is the secret of creating from nothing. You draw all parts of the job together simply by using the power of focus.
Lack of focus is the reason for failure. When you’re procrastinating, hesitating, dragging and stopping, it’s because you’re focusing on the things that divert your attention from the things that contribute to your work. Focusing on the problems causes a lack of focus on the solution. Focusing on the negative causes a lack of focus on the positive aspects. Focusing on other things causes a lack of focus on the main thing. So if you want to achieve maximum and fastest results, keep an eye on the ball.
Perseverance is what you continually focus on. There are people who don’t persevere because they keep changing their focus. They think and act in a certain direction and then think and act in the opposite direction. Every time you move away from what you want, you erase the movement you have made towards it. So it’s not going to work if you keep moving towards what you want but also walk away often. True perseverance is staying in one direction most of the time until the end.
Many huge tasks seem impossible to tackle in one fell swoop. That is why many people do not undertake them. Only a few make it big. His secret is to work one step at a time. Think of it like trying to destroy a large rock. You can’t break it to pieces with a single blow if you’re using a small hammer. But if you keep breaking it down, you’ll start to see it crumble bit by bit over time, until it finally falls apart in many pieces before you. This is how your biggest dreams can come true.
Sometimes a lot of work is done for a long time but it seems that there are no results on the surface, that does not mean that nothing is being achieved. There is a species of Asian bamboo that, even after five years of watering, weeding, and fertilizing, is barely visible. Then, over a span of about six weeks, it grows from two and a half feet a day to ninety feet or more. It grows so fast that you can literally “hear” it grow. It was developing a massive root system that would later support its magnificent growth.
How quickly success comes depends on how much you focus in the right direction as opposed to how much you focus in the wrong direction. Focusing in the wrong direction is what causes doubt, fear, and worry. When you allow yourself to be distracted by other things that capture your mind, you will draw less power to do the work you are supposed to do. Therefore, it is important to get away from useless things as much as possible so that you become completely free and focused for optimal success.
When you tackle a task to the fullest, put other things off your mind. The more you allow your focus to drift, the slower you will be at achieving it. Stay in the frame of mind for the job as much as possible and you will keep moving forward with it. Focusing on doing what you do is how you practice putting the law of attraction into action. It is also how you develop and exercise your reality-creating powers. The greater your focus, the more successful you will be.
All power is mental power, and the secret of mental power lies in the power of concentration. Mental power is the universal power that is fully available to all beings in the universe. But it is the quality of concentration that determines the various levels of manifestation of mental power among men. A gun loaded with a thimble of powder will make more force than a cannon burned in the open. A greater force is needed to overcome all other lesser forces. He who has a firm will shapes the world.
The focus is how you create the habits of success for yourself. The more you think thoughts and perform actions that create success, the more you attract similar thoughts and actions. Anytime you want to break the habits of failure, all you have to do is focus on the thoughts and actions that create success. It is difficult at first as the energies of current thoughts and actions will draw you in. But if you persist long enough, you’ll free yourself like a rocket escaping the planet’s gravitational field.
All this is for the development of your being. To experience success, you must be successful. You must be the qualities of success. Success is simply the result of the things that are accomplished. There are many requirements for something to be achieved. They are the qualities required to start, continue and perfect a process until completion. The work towards success is to develop focus, courage, wisdom, will, faith, flexibility and perseverance in you to experience who you are as a divine creator.
