Focus

I’ve been thinking about focus a lot lately and when I attended the Sunday morning talk today the speaker spoke about, guess what, focus. Coincidence? Hardly! The Universe provides in all kinds of ways, we just need to remain attentive to it. It’s hard not to when the words are coming at you from center stage.

One of the things the speaker said this morning, was that we can tell ourselves all kind of stories about anything we want, so why not make it a good story. Why not create our story with the focus we want it to have?

The focus I’ve been thinking a lot about, and wanting to incorporate more of into my life, has had to do with, you guessed it, writing. So I’ve been using the suggestion I heard this morning (not a new one, but good to be reminded of for sure) about spending a whole day paying attention to the focus I desire.

For instance, instead of spending my day questioning my writing, the importance of it, not knowing how to proceed, or what steps I should take next, why not spend my whole day paying attention and focused on the story I want. If I did it would look something like this.

I am meant to write. I know how and the Universe supports me in this endeavor.

So all day I made this my focus. Then I watched for signs. I opened my heart to the messages. I remained attentive to confirmations that showed up along the way and in so doing I began to create my story.
