What are you focusing on?

What you focus on, and more importantly, the feelings you experience while focusing on that thing, are creating your reality. If your focus is on something you want, you will attract more of what you want. If your focus is on something you don’t want, you will attract more of what you don’t want.

This is all about the Law of Attraction (or LOA for short). The LOA says, in simple terms, “You attract what you think about”.

If you think of something “dark”, you’ll attract more dark. If you think of something “light”, you’ll attract more light.

The LOA is working every second of every single day, and like it or not, you are constantly creating your reality through the use of the LOA, whether you’re doing it consciously or not. This means that you can be attracting what you want as well as what you don’t want.

I had a client (let’s call her Bec – that’s not her real name, btw!) who was struggling financially. Bec was broke, she had expenses coming up that she really didn’t know how she was going to pay, she was worried about her job, and she had also been told that she needed to find somewhere else to live.

We did some work together where I cleared a number of her subconscious limiting beliefs which were contributing to her current situation, and I set her some homework…

This homework was simple, but it was a must, if she was going to have any chance of turning her financial situation around, but we started small with only one task assigned to her to start.

What was this task?

The task (which really isn’t a task!) was to get herself a Gratitude Journal and to write in it every day. She was told to write down three things every day that she was grateful for, and while writing, it was very important that she feel true gratitude for each of the items she wrote about. She would do this every morning before she got out of bed.

Within a week, Bec’s finances had improved in the most profound way!

• She was $3 away from achieving a sales bonus of $700 at work
• She was able to negotiate cheaper rent for a new home
• She won a $50 gift card
• A friend gave her $10

These may seem like little things from the outside, but for Bec they were huge – they showed her that her shift in focus had caused the abundance to begin to flow towards her instead of away from her. This was much better than what it had been doing previously.

The next step for Bec is to make sure she feels and expresses the gratitude for these little things coming into her life every time they appear, because it’s sending a very clear message to the Universe that she wants more of the same. Given the LOA isn’t picky about who it responds to (it responds to everyone!), I know that her consistent focus will bring her just that! How awesome huh??
