What You Focus On Expands

Recently I listened to an Abraham CD that suggested a very provocative exercise. They suggested that you think of two people – one you like and one that you don’t.
Then for the person you like – find several aspects that you don’t like and then for the person you don’t like – find several aspects that you do like.
Abraham suggests that as you continue to do this it won’t be long before you will change how you feel about each person.
You will start to dislike the person you liked. And you will start to like the person you disliked.
Tonight, I listened to Alex Mandossian’s business webinar and he suggested that we focus on Strengthening Strengths. He gave a powerful example which we can translate to all aspects of our career or business.
He said that when he goes to a teacher interview for his children, he asks “What are my child’s strengths?” and talks about these things for 20 minutes. The other things are talked about later.
He said that over the years he has noticed that the teachers then start focusing on the child’s strengths and the child feels so much better about themselves and doing better in school.
I have been teaching this concept for years – I have called it “What You Focus On Expands” - you can click on the following link and see my version of a shift in focus that can change your interpersonal relationships in your family and at work!

Love to hear what you think!
With warmest wishes,

PS: I only recommend that you only use the part of Abraham’s exercise that finds positive aspects of people
