Law Of Attraction - How Do I Focus On The Now?
One of the most asked questions when learning the Law of Attraction is how do I focus on the now? It’s a simple concept, yet it can seem complex and difficult at the same time. We aren’t used to living in the now, because we have been taught to plan ahead, and make sure you don’t repeat mistakes. Our minds are constantly jumping from the past to the future and all points in between. So how do we change this easily? The key is to focus and pay attention to what you are thinking.
You can’t very easily change what you are thinking unless you are aware of it. Start by keeping a notebook beside you and write in it everything you are thinking for an hour. You will be surprised at the end of the hour just where your thoughts wandered to. This is a very easy place to get started.
Now that you have the notes, try it again, but when a thought comes into your head assess whether it’s about the present, or about the past or future. If it’s about the past or future, thank yourself for having the thought and then focus back in on what you are doing right now. It takes practise, but you will find your mind becoming almost laser tuned into what is happening now.
Let go of worry. Easier said than done, you say. Use the techniques above to help you do this. By eliminating worry, you are helping yourself in the long run. Try it and see the difference. Your thoughts will slow down and become clearer. Solutions will present themselves that hadn’t been there before when your mind was cluttered with useless thoughts.
Another way to slow down your thoughts is to practise meditation for twenty minutes at least once a day. You’ll see the difference almost straight away, and it will be much easier to focus your thoughts where they need to be: in the present.
By making note of your thoughts, slowly eliminating thoughts that aren’t of the present, letting go of worry and mediating, you are on your way to living in the now. There are many excellent courses out there that can coach you in living in the now, and they are worth looking up if you wish to learn more techniques. In the meantime enjoy the present, and the future will take care of itself.
