When you FOCUS on your goal, you forget about the distractions, only then you make the success!
How many times do we hear the line ‘ Ah well I couldn’t do that because.’……or ‘You see I had to do something else!’
I do feel sometimes that we as humans wander aimlessly around expecting others to do things for them, or making excuses as to why some people are not as successful as others, which results in jealously, how come they had made something of themselves?
I worked in corporate business a long time and I feel achieved alot personally….all be it through sheer hard work, determination, listening to others and putting my own ideas into practice, but what it really meant was that I had to Focus very hard on the job in hand, even though I was trying to run a home and bring up the girls, I remember my boss saying to me one day, Anne I really admire you….what do you mean I said?….not only do you work dammed hard, but your girls and your home and still have time to smile. It stopped me in my track….my boss who I respected..admired me? wow but what a lovely thing to say. But its true, there are alot of people who want what you have got, but are not prepared to go out there and do it…..Change that! right now because not only when you do go out there and achieve it, the self satisfaction is great…and it makes you smile!
I took a call on the phone, on the love zone yesterday, from a woman, who started off complaining at me because all these readings she had had never come true…rather than me just go in and go over old territory, I suggested to her that I see why, with help from Spirit world and my guides, she was told that she actually was overlooking the fact that she wasnt developing something that she was supposed to, and that when she did this all would open up to her, to my amazment came the biggest confession I have ever heard, she herself admitted that she was lazy, wanted what others had but didnt want to put any effort into it and needed the biggest kick up the Bottom to get her going…..to which I replied ‘I guess you just did that to yourself’ She laughed, thanked me and went off.
I rest my case… Today If you want to achieve something dont Expect someone else to do it for you, you do it, because then you and only You can take the credit for it.
Agree or Disagree …leave me your comments I always listen to them all. xx
Morning Anne,
There certainly is a lot of truth in what you say that if we are determined abd focused then we can achieve,but some of what we want in our lives can remain tantalisingly just out of reach and is not always within our power to attain.
When I was in my mid forties I embarked on a complete career change as I had just been made redundant, this meant going away to college and studying, something I hadn’t done since I left school!!!along with having to undertake fitness exercise as well gulp!! but I wanted to do this job so I took a deep breath and went for it, I have now been in my job for mearly 10 years and have never looked back, but some people are not so lucky or have the self confidence to try.
If you are told nearly all your life that you are lazy, stupid, worthless and will never amount to anything, then you start to belive it and it can be extremely hard to change your thinking.
over the years I have seen and worked with many people who have been brainwashed if you like into believing they will never amount to anything which to me is so sad.
A colleague and myself worked with one young girl for about a year approximately 6 years ago to try and help her come out of her self destruct mode,she had been harning herself for many years thinking she was ugly, useless and stupid,she wasn’t but that was her perception due to peer and family conditioning, when she eventually left she wrote a letter to us telling us how she had managed to turn things wround and was now getting on with her life, including looking after her son and had stopped harming,she thanked us for the help and support she had been given.
It wasn’t us who had done it for her, she had done it all herself.all we did was show her the alternatives that were there all the time, all she had to do was focus and go for it.
love and light

Hi Anne,
what a wonderful blog and so very true. I did that years ago and it has given me a life I could never have imagined. I had been in a loveless marriage, living on an island and stuck in the same place. Dont get me wrong it was not horrible and I have a wonderful son. We had a great life but it was not enough for me. I knew that there was more for me to be doing. I left and moved to the centre of a city. Got a job and shared a flat with 6 others. I look back and am proud of what I have achieved. I have again decided to set goals, as recently I have just been stagnant. So thank you for the ‘kick up the bum’
love and light
