Hello, this is Lynne Jacob, founder of MLJ International.
Creator of the 7 Simple Strategies 4 success, and author of the book which you can find
on Amazon but you can go to my website, find it as well, called ‘I Know you Know but
you don’t Understand’ What I’m talking about today is how to get
out of focusing on your problems.
Have you ever heard yourself say yeah right, well I’ll believe that when I see it.
That’s what we grew up with.
Right?
What I want to help you understand is that what we focus on, grows.
Because we're giving it energy.
Right?
You feed anything energy and that’s what’s going to happen to it.
It's just going to grow.
What I want you to do instead of focusing on the problem that you have and listen I
get caught up in this trap as well.
So I understand it firsthand.
And when we have a problem, we focus on the problem.
Why?
Because it's got to change.
We've got to find a solution.
Come on, you know like these.
It’s our people, it's our team, or it's our people, it's our customers, or it's family
members, or it's our friends.
Or it could just be that, you know simple thing like our cash flow has stopped.
You know.
It's like somebody really pinched the hose and there is no more cash flowing into the
business.
But there’s probably still cash flowing out of the business.
So whatever your problem is, whether it's people, it's money, or it's time, when you’re
focusing on the problem, then you are actually pinching it off even more.
You're giving more energy to the problem and so the problem becomes stronger.
The problem grows.
I want you to just flip the coin over.
So we’ve got a problem, just flip it over.
Gee, why is this a problem?
Because this is what I want.
So stay focused on the what I want, and then from a whole different energy level, a whole
different feeling, you are going to be watching ways show up right in front of you.
So all you have to do is take that first step each time.
Just step into the way that presents itself to get you to what it is that you really want.
Instead of ‘yeah right, I’ll believe that when I see It.’
then I’d like you to turn it around to ‘I believe that.
Now I am going to see it.’
When you believe it, then you’ll start to see little bits of it.
You’ll start to see the way to start going towards it.
You won’t necessarily see the entire solution right then and there.
But you’ll see the ways to it.
Now the challenge you're going to have there is to step into it.
Why?
Because we’ve all been programmed to work on the problem.
So I think you get it now.
When we're working on the problem, when we're focusing on the problem, we're growing the
problem.
Believe it.
And then you’ll see it.
Focus on what you want.
And you are going to grow what it is you want.
So it really is as simple as that and I get that you are in the trenches and you’re
kind of stuck at what you’ve always been doing and that’s the way things are done
around here.
Well I help people change the way things are done around here.
And I help you strengthen the foundation of your business.
I help you make improvements to the way things are done around here, and your business grows
pretty much by default.
It's just the end result of that.
If you have challenges, and you’d like to get past them, a heck of a lot more easily,
and a heck of a lot more faster than you are currently doing, then do reach out.
Give me a call, send me an email, something, go to my website MLJInternational.com and
we’ll talk about it.
