The Power of Focus


You've heard of that, right? The Power of Focus--it was the title of a very popular book. But there are other phrases--"what you focus on grows" or "be careful what you ask for, you just might get it"--today I am thinking about the power of focus. It is my conviction that what we put our attention on becomes more predominant in our lives. And so I was reminded again from one of my favorite books, Reality Creation Secrets, that we can shape our world by what we choose to focus on. I choose to focus on a world of love and peace--of abundance and fulfillment for all. What would happen if everyone chose to do this? I can't wait to find out. Luckily, I'm not the only one...

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
~John Lennon
