So what is your outcome in life? What do you specifically want?

When wanting to make a change we hear this quite often, don’t we? But what usually happens when we hear these questions?

Well I’ve noticed the most common response for people who don’t get their outcomes and goals would be:

“Well I don’t want that to happen”,
“I don’t want to stay in debt anymore”
“I don’t want to be ill”

I hear this all too often when working with my clients and I vae found that it’s a big problem in why someone hasn't achieved their goals. Even if people say “I want to be healthy again as I hate being ill all the time” just thinking and feeling this will be a hindrance to your success. Why though?

Well in order to achieve your outcomes or goals in life, you have to be focused on the end outcome or goal. However saying things like “I don’t want to stay in debt forever” focuses on debt! And whatever your mind focuses on over time with consistency you attract in your life, it continues, expects and looks out for it!

Imagine that sentence for one moment “I don’t want to stay in debt forever”, when you think about that for a moment now, what happens in your mind?

You may make a picture in your mind being in debt
You may associate bad feelings of being in debt for life i.e. the fear, worry, anxiety and unhappiness.
You may hear the words we were taught such as “Money doesn't’t grow on trees don’t you know!”, “We all can’t have money!”

Your mind will delete the ‘don’t’ and just make up an internal representation of ‘Stay in debt’, your hypnotising yourself with that suggestion with “I stay in debt forever!”

Now if you have one or all or more of these mind sets over a period of time, it will naturally cause consistent bad feelings, and guess what the more negative thoughts and feelings you have it will produce limiting beliefs such as ‘Your right money doesn't grow on trees, I will be in debt forever, I just give up!”

Henry Ford once said “Whether you think you can or can’t, you’re right”

This is such a true statement. So what are you focusing on in terms of your outcome? Are you focusing on the lack of or the abundance of?

Now imagine if you will the thought “I am Healthy and Wealthy”

What happens? It’s a whole lot of new set of thoughts and feelings right?

You see a in your minds eye a pcture of you being healthy, and wealthy
That will bring feelings of energy, security and happiness.
It may creates the words “I can, I will, I have”

Now even if in reality its not presently true yet, if you change your thoughts to be consistent like the above, it will create new feelings, and over time will create strong empowering beliefs that will cause you mind and body (unconscious) to search for the answers and attract those people, relationships, health, wealth and happiness into your reality.

What’s your outcome? And more importantly what’s your point of focus?
