Fall In Love With Your Future 3.0

Focus on where you want to go….

What sets apart those who have an exciting future from those who are barely getting by? Men and women who have fallen in love with their future have discovered a profound principle. It’s simply to choose a good plan and focus on it.

Have you ever watched a cat jump from a sitting position to a surface 15 times his height above him? He begins by looking around for a spot that interests him and then focusing on where he wants to go.

Race car drivers tell us that the way they get through a tight line of cars and seldom hit anything is that they focus on where they want to go. They train themselves not to look at the wall or at any obstacle they want to avoid, but to focus on the open space they want to fill.

What’s the open space you want to fill? If it’s legal, moral, and honorable, focus on it. Too often we spend our energy contemplating the things we want to avoid, rather than preparing for the things we want to accomplish. Shifting our focus from worry to action frees us to soar.
