Focus: The Art of Clear Thinking

To make the impossible possible there is a simple phrase to help you focus your best thinking on reaching your goals. It is ‘No, because = Yes, if’

When working with this DNA thinking model it is very important that you remember three things to make it successful:
1. You must have a clear goal.
2. Allow your negative thoughts to flow out of your mind in any random order. As you feel them, write them down.
3. Before you begin to work on overcoming your negative thoughts, it is extremely important to rank them, from the easiest negative to deal with first, down to the most difficult. Your obstacles are then considered and ranked in descending order of how easy they are to overcome.

So belief and genuine need are two qualities which are necessary to help us remain focused on what we want.

Your feelings of attachment to your goal comprise your strongest and most powerful ally to help you to remain focused. It is the amount of feeling you have for your objective which will be the deciding factor on whether you succeed or fail. This is my basic and most fundamental premise for you to remember in taking your first steps to achieving what you want.

I remember those words always – there is nothing to be afraid of once you know your way, once you focus on your direction. Thinking clearly and with a solid focus on our goals helps us to achieve our desires.

I can’t stress enough to you that in Clear-Thinking terms, sympathy is the archenemy of action because it usually means ‘no’. When people are sympathetic to you it is because you cannot get what you want, so the more sympathy they heap on you the more likely it is that you will never have what you are looking for
