Page 1 of 2 How much time do you spend worrying about your problems. Your money? Your love life? Your kids? Your future? After you finished worrying (if you ever did), how many of these problems went away? Most likely “zero,” right?
This proves that focusing on what you don’t want doesn’t solve anything. In fact, focusing on your problems will reinforce the problems.
The reason is: We move in the direction we focus on. This is not to say that problems don’t need addressing. They do! But putting the problems behind you requires a new way of thinking. That different way might be to see yourself hunting for solutions rather than solving problems. The shift may seem slight but has far reaching implications as far as focus and perhaps even outcome. Here’s a true story: A U.S.-based company, who specializes in teaching people to create, took their staff on a trip to Uganda where they entered a small village in that country. Their purpose was to help the people in it. This village was dirt poor. The villagers could hardly feed themselves. The crops were failing. They had no medical facilities and many of their people were sick.
