TOWARDS OR AWAY FROM?

Think of a goal you wish to achieve.

It can be personal or work related; short or long term.

Do you imagine what it would be like to reach your goal (what you will be seeing, hearing, feeling)?

Or are you aware of what stops you and what you don’t want?

For example:

1.??You are thinking of getting your body into shape.

Do you imagine yourself as slim, fit and terrific?

Or do you think of the food and drink you’ll have to avoid and the weight you need to lose?

2.??When selling your product and services.

Do you imagine yourself as confidently explaining your value and obtaining orders?

Or do you think about being ‘salesy’ and fear of rejection to be overcome?

Thinking about what you want is known as 'towards' thinking.

Thinking about what you don’t want is known as 'away from' thinking.

In the context of goal setting, if you think ‘towards’ you are more likely to achieve what you want.

If you think ‘away from’ you are more likely to achieve that.

For example, if you tell yourself not to worry, you are programming yourself to do what? Worry!

If you tell yourself you cannot remember names or sell then your mind will reward you by doing just that.

The mind tends to follow your predominant thought.

Successful people engage in towards thinking.

What is your thinking, 'towards' or 'away from'?

Happy thinking
