Do you have one focus in life? What is it?
To be happy!
“I don’t want a perfect life. I want a happy life!”
Learn to “take care of you”! (This is not in a selfish way, but in a way that you can be the most, accomplish the most in an unselfish way!)
NEVER depend on others for “your” happiness!
Find anything that you can enjoy and ENJOY it! – It is the best way to gain greater energy to become stronger and more able to powerfully serve others!
It has been interesting working with different people and understanding how their focus can help them AND hurt them. Our focus could be due to how we were raised, our experiences in life, or what we have been taught, etc.?
Examples:
We may be a person that focuses on “everything is good” and not see the bad that can affect us.
Maybe we may be focusing on money above other things and seeing everything having a certain value, and not connecting it with how our mind puts dollar amounts to it? For example, what dollar value can you put on relationships? IF there is no dollar value on the relationship, then spending $12 on roses might seem too expensive? Even though the value of what it might do for the relationship would be so much more than that!
If you focus on having no value (it might not even be a conscious thought), what would you do to take care of you so that you could have quality living?
IF your focus is in doing for others, and that is what gives you meaning in life, that seems all good, right? But when you give all your time and energy on others, what do you get in return? Feeling good about yourself? Could be—but if you don’t take care of yourself, then there could easily be a time when you can’t do for others!
Have you heard the saying “it’s going to get worse before it gets better”?—If that is a focus, when will it get better?
Fear may not consciously be your focus, but if it is an unconscious focus, can you make rational choices?
