How can it be done?

We can always focus on the numerous reasons why we can't do something, can't we? But when we're focusing on those, it doesn't allow us to think of all ways we can achieve our dreams. Does that make sense? Those who focus on abundance, in all areas of their lives, get the job done because they allow themselves to focus only on how something can be done.

Here is an exercise that teaches you how to focus on how your goals can be achieved. And if any negative idea creeps into your thoughts, you are going to utilize what some before me call "Next Technique." The "Next Technique" is a little refocusing tool that is very powerful.

Here's how it works. When a negative idea or reason slips into your mind, as silly as it may seem, try saying (out loud) "NEXT!" and quickly move back to thinking about all the ways and ideas you have, or have come up with, on how to accomplish your goal.

It's similar to growing a garden, regardless of whether you're raising flowers or fruits and vegetables. Do you have to pay much attention to the weeds? Do you water and fertilize those weeds to make sure they are well taken care of? Absolutely not, just the opposite. However, weeds still continue to grow don't they? In fact weeds are so stubborn, you can put concrete over them and they'll find a crack and grow right through.

This tool encourages you to not give any energy or efforts to weeds. What you want to give all your focused attention to are the vegetables, the fruits or the flowers that you are growing. Can you see the metaphor?

You see, our world is full of weeds (negativity)... all the reasons why we can't achieve and accomplish. But you're going to completely ignore those reasons. They have no value in your mind. You're going to focus on your beautiful garden and your new crop.

So a positive assignment for you to focus on this week is to mind storm all the ways that your goal can be achieved. Now, if you're like most people, you've fallen into some thought processes that have allowed you to think about ways it can't be done. Forget the weeds! Pull them out! "NEXT!"

Here's to our continued wealth and happiness!
