What are you focusing on RIGHT NOW?
What are you focusing on RIGHT NOW?
Are you thinking about what is going right or what is going wrong? Are you looking at what you didn’t get done today or what you accomplished?
As a business owner and human, your resources are limited on where you can spend your time. So knowing exactly where to spend that time is key, and one area I know isn’t helpful to spend time on is what ISN’T WORKING.
Of course, we all keep score differently, but what I have learned in my own business and my clients is if we can create processes to focus on what we want to create, the results we want, that allows us to get out of our heads, make it less emotional and thus focus on what IS working.
I am not saying you don’t need to face the things that don’t work, but I am saying that we naturally, as humans, look for our inefficiencies. So we need to flip that equation and start focusing on what we are doing good at, what we are GREAT AT, because things are more manageable when we are in that positive mindset.
You may ask, how are they easier...simply, you are happier, and when we are happier, we see the world for what it is: a fantastic place with bountiful opportunities.
In Dan Sullivan’s book, “The Gap and the Gain,” he talks about how, as business owners, a surefire way to stop creativity and our drive forward is to focus on the gap and not the gain. Focus on what we haven’t achieved instead of what we have achieved.
This month, I want to challenge you to write down EACH DAY, “What is working? What worked today?” Why? So we can start creating new neural pathways in the brain that begin to see the good just as quickly as it sees the bad. The good gets us to great, and the great brings us to our goals, desires, and aspirations in our business, life, and self! I believe in you; now, let’s focus on the good!
