Lost Your Focus — or Your Hope?

In just a few weeks we’ll be entering the fourth quarter of the year and many of us have lost focus on the goals we set during January.

It’s always hard to keep your eye on the ball for the entire year, but this year has been even more challenging than most for many people.

Well there’s still hope. In fact, the 90 days we have in the fourth quarter (beginning October 1) is more than enough time to achieve some pretty incredible results. Stop and think about it:

90 days is usually plenty of time to see a significant result from a weight loss plan. Most businesses are launched during a 90-day period and many, many books are written in 90 days. In fact, Napoleon Hill wrote the classic Think and Grow Rich in under 90 days.

Our four seasons are 90 days apart. You can go from the harshest of Winter to the overflowing, abundant life of Spring in just 90 days. Most of our agricultural crops have a 90-day growing period. From seed to harvest in 90 days. It works with plants…and it works with dreams and goals.

Does that give you some hope that you might have a shot at turning this year around in the next few months?

You are a reflection of your thoughts and words. Take an inventory of your thoughts because most likely you are exactly where your thoughts have brought you at this point. The beauty of thoughts is that you have control over them, so if you’re not where you want to be, change your thoughts and you will reach your true destination.

I know that I am exactly where my thoughts and words have led me. Both good and bad but you know what? If my negative thoughts have brought me to this certain point in time, I now that my true desires and thoughts will be made manifest in due time. Patience, faith and action will bring the result I seek.

“You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.” – James Allen

You are a champion and you were created for great things. Don’t let the enemies of this world make you believe anything other than this truth.

Successfully,
