FOCUS - YOUR #1 TOOL TO ULTIMATE SUCCESS!




Most of us aspire to become successful in life. The fact still remains that those who become successful are those who understand what FOCUS is all about. At one point of time, I told my audience, "it is the missing link" between where you are now and achieving your dream.

There is a great master coach of archery. The big day came for the competitive match, and the master has entered 2 of his most promising students, both young men. Right before the match is scheduled to begin, the great coach walks up and puts his hand on the back of the first contender and says, "Son, when you look out at the target, what do you see?" The young man says, "Coach, I see the target, the mountains behind it, the tall grassess blowing in the gentle wind, the birds soaring above, and I am ready to shoot." The coach says, "Oh, but you are not going to shoot, you are not focused."


The coach then walked towards the second young man, puts his hand on his shoulder and asked the contender, "When you look out at the target, what do you see?" The young man said, "Coach, I see only the target!" The coach replied, "Son, you'll win the match today."


In life, FOCUS is everything! For those of you who are like the first young man perhaps you have a goal, a target. You also have parenting, housekeeping, full-time jobs, part-time jobs, exercising, shopping, personal growth and development and maybe more. You lose sight of your target, your goal! Then you get discouraged and quit, putting your business on the back burner, blaming yourself, others or the situation around. The spiral begins downward until you're exhausted and can't come near your once exciting goals for a better and brighter future.


Then there are those of you like the second young man and are making your dreams come true. What's the difference? Clearly and simply, the second young man has learned to FOCUS on hitting the target. FOCUS - it's a little word, but it will make a gigantic difference in your life.

You must plan on life getting in the way, because it will. Plan for struggles. FOCUS on what you won't tolerate not achieving.


To further define the word, FOCUS, here is the motivating story ...

"One day a businesswoman looked out of her first storey office and saw a cocoon hanging out in a tree, thrashing about. As she watched it, she began to focus on it and the struggle it was having. She began focusing on the butterfly, not wanting to miss its flight from the cocoon. The next morning she found herself eager to get to her office, hoping to watch the metamorphosis. All that day she watched the creature in the cocoon struggle, and by the end of the day, she couldn't stand to watch anymore. She took a tiny straight pin and calmly walked outside and poked a tiny hole in the bottom of the cocoon. Almost immediately, the most gorgeous butterfly flew out of the cocoon and tried to fly. But it dropped to the ground, unable to fly and to soar and to live. You see, it did not complete the struggle - the struggle that forces fluid into its wings enabling it to fly."

In life, sometimes you have to struggle as part of your process in your personal growth and development. But for those who focused on goals and have clarity about that focus, wild horse can't stop you from succeeding. FOCUS on what you do want, not what you don't want.

Build people into leaders and help them become successful. You'll get what you FOCUS on. If you FOCUS on building a fabulous future for yourself and those you love, you will find that the universe will rearrange itself to accommodate your picture. Just FOCUS on your goals, on your beliefs, your commitment, your contribution, your duplication, your knowledge, your leadership, your partnership, your activity, your own business and your vision.

Success in life is about empowement and education. Reach out to the world by making use of the internet - the borderless platform. Share with all your friends around the world your focus and vision and help them accomplish their goals. Go for greatness. FOCUS on your greatness. You are better than you think you are. FOCUS on what you really, really want!

What the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve! I am counting on you to build your future and the future of your loved ones utilizing the incredible and phenomenal powers of the internet. You can attain personal and financial freedom through the internet. You can have it all. FOCUS and stay FOCUS within yourself and your team.
