During her mastermind meeting, a team member shared that she wasn’t getting new business although she previously had momentum and success.
Instead of wallowing in the doldrums of what wasn’t enough, she refocused on her goals – what she really wanted. She tweaked them, felt good about them and energized them with her positive attention.
Very soon after, she received two new contracts from people who came out of the blue. Keep in mind, she hadn’t had activity in this part of her business for months. She and her husband talked about it being a miracle… one she triggered because of how she changed her focus.
You, too, have complete power to redirect your focus and turn any part of your life or business onto the path of success.
Your focus inspires your feelings which, in turn, creates results. Are they the ones you choose?
What’s not enough for you? Money? Business? Relationships? Time? Energy? Health?
Do you feel yucky when you think about what you feel isn’t enough? Oops. You don’t want to stay there too long because that’s the energy that creates not having enough.
Focusing on what’s not enough can be a familiar habit, but it will NOT get you what you want.
If you were heading off a cliff, do you stay the course or turn the vehicle in another direction? You turn the wheel if you want to live.
Dwelling on low energy thoughts and feelings will only bring you more of what’s not working.
TIP: What to Do When There’s Not Enough
Imagine how you’d feel if you saw a laughing baby or playful puppy. A happy smile comes over your face. That creates good feeling mojo.
Find anything in your life or business that can bring a happy smile to you. C’mon, it’s there. Look for it instead of the yucky stuff.
What creates a feeling of gratitude? You’re alive and breathing, so you have the gift of life to go forth another day. I’m sure there’s a lot more. You may feel abundantly full of them.
1. Shift your focus by listing ten reasons why you’re grateful.
2. Quickly look at what’s not enough in your life or business.
3. Next, redirect your focus and feelings. What do you choose instead?
Not enough business or money? Focus on having more instead of the lack of it.
What would more look and feel like? You happy with clients, biz associates and relationships you love. Feeling empowered because you’re watching your bank account grow. Feeling healthy, energized and great in your body. Loving your vacation with family or friends. Satisfied with where you live. Reveling in the time and freedom to enjoy life more. Feels good, right?
Friends or clients feeling like life-sucking, energy vampires? See yourself enjoying the friendship of supportive and positive people where there’s mutual respect, a well-balanced give and take… they exist.
Focus on what you choose with good feeling mojo. Yes, yes. The “not enough stuff” is still there, but that’s not a wise place to invest your attention. Otherwise, you’ll get more of the same.
The way out of not having enough is to redirect your focus.
As Socrates said: “The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.”
You have control of how you feel regardless of the circumstances. Even if they’re dire.
You can choose your focus!! Use it. Don’t abuse it, and you’ll have way more than enough.
When you see any positive success at all, focus on that and let the momentum snowball. If you give your new focus a chance, you could see success faster than you thought possible.
