Don't Think About Elephants!

See how it works?

If I write don’t think about elephants what happens? You think about elephants even if only briefly.

If I write think about elephants the same thing happens.

Don’t think about lack…

Don’t think about plenty…

Don’t think sad thoughts…

Don’t think happy thoughts…

It all the same, how ever you word it. Energy follows consciousness, what you focus on determines your reality. Think about what you want.

If you occupy your mind with thoughts of what you do not want or are afraid of then you are very likely to draw that experience into your life to some degree. When I started my yacht painting business I was very worried that I wouldn’t get paid – I had some very negative beliefs about the nature of business and the luxury yachting business in particular. Sure enough three of the first shipyards my company was contracted to went bankrupt leaving me on the brink of bankruptcy myself. I learnt the hard way to focus upon my positive desires more than my fears and thankfully no shipyards have bankrupted themselves since, although it has seemed touch and go at times.

You can read a zillion books, attend endless lectures, spend hours in therapy but ultimately its all very basic – dream of the life you want and begin living it step by baby step…

Don’t think about happiness…
