"I was in the middle of an important contract and I completely lost my confidence and had severe anxiety attacks.
After one session with Luca, I went back to work with confidence and no anxiety and I nailed the contract. I would recommend Luca to anyone suffering with lack of confidence and anxiety.
Luca is committed and dedicated to helping you overcome your fears and he helped me get my life back on track.
Where are You now?
The power of focus and how to use it to get to your goal now.
It is imperative that we know where we want to go but I am sure you would agree that it is just as important to know you where we are now.
This will enable us to calibrate and measure our progress. As when stating your goal it is important to be specific, it is just as important when analysing where you are now. As in the Goal Settings, this must be stated in the positive; this is called Gratitude.
Gratitude helps you receive more of what you have; in fact, all thoughts are really requests for more of the same, in good and in bad. Gratitute is very powerful owever you need to ensure that you a grateful for what you do have focus on what you want. You need to forget about the things that you do not want, do not try not to think about them, simple think about something else. If you try not to think about what you do not want, you will end up thinking about it more and therefore attracting more of it.
This is mainly because of the fact that our brain is not able to process negatives; here is an example: Try really, really hard not to think of a pink house, don’t think of a pink house. Now, what are you thinking about? Don’t say a pink house! ;-)
In order for our brain to keep from thinking about something, it needs to think about it first, then decide or remember that it does not want to think about it and either change one or more elements of that something or think about something else instead. So, what does this say? Well, I wonder what a person who keeps on thinking “I don’t want to fail, I don’t want to stay where I am” focuses on. I wonder what requests he/she is sending out; and what do you think this person is likely to receive?
The key here is to think in positive and be grateful for what we do have.
I would suggest you take 10 minutes every night or morning to write all the things you are grateful for, meaning it. Begin from the things that we give more for granted; after all, not everybody has the privilege of waking up in the morning feeling healthy, warm and with food on the table. So be grateful for those things too; don’t leave anything out.
Once you have a good list of the things that you do have, for which you are grateful, then take that image, thought or feeling of what you want to be, have or do and notice the difference. What skills does the “new you” have that you do not have now? What resources? Once you have the list of those skills, you will notice that some of these skills are simply behavioural and attitudinal. This means that the “new you” has acquired a different way of thinking, behaving and has consequently acquired a different physiology.
It helps to take charge of those things now. You may not have the final outcome yet, nothing however stops you from thinking, behaving and appearing like that “new you” right now; you can easily act as if you are that “new you” now. You could easily imagine what it would feel like being that “new you”, and you can feel those feelings now.
This will amplify that focus on that goal you have, because when you act as if you have it, you are acting as if you have it, behaving as if you have it, appearing as if you have it and thinking as if you have it.
Do you see what this does? You are focusing entirely on your goal; your thoughts are focused on it, your body is focused on it, your language is focused on it and your behaviour is focused on it. Your thoughts and energy are congruent with what you want.
Now, what is the most important skill in achieving something? That’s right, it’s the FOCUS. And there is no better way to focus than this; as this way, without consciously realising it, you are focusing on your goal all day, every day, mind and body.
To your success!
