Focusing on the solutions and not the problems....

1. “Just when you think you’re HOT, you’re NOT.”
If you want to become successful and stay successful,
you must learn how to focus!
- Becoming successful is very hard. You are going
to run into many problems and obstacles.
Instead of dwelling on all the negatives, think about
what you want, think about all the good things you are going to
do in life. Keep focused on your goals and never give up.
Remember,
“You can never rest no matter how good things are going. Your
current “good times” are only a result of the hard work and
dedication you have.”
If you want to continue being successful, you’ve got to
keep doing the things that got you there in the first place.
If you let yourself get distracted by ALL the trappings
of success you’re sowing the seeds of your own decline. So
never stop focusing on your goal, no matter how successful you
are.

2. It is true that a few people are born to be successful.
They possess some special talent that makes it easy to succeed –
the gifted musician, the natural athlete, or the talented business
person.
However, the vast majority of successful people
weren’t handed their success on a silver platter. They all worked
hard for it. They set goals and stayed focused on their goals until
they reached them.
You may be able to coast your way to success because
of some special ability that you were born with.
However, most of the time you will need to work hard
and stay focused to get to the top – and then work even harder to
stay there.
“Start with the natural talent you were born with. Then, use
your determination through the good and tough times to reach
your goals and achieve amazing things in your life.”

KEY POINTS!
- Remember that success is never easy.
- Always take your work seriously.
- Keep focusing on doing what you love, even if
times are tough.
- Acknowledge your problems, but focus on what
makes you feel good.
- Time is on your side; things do not continue
downward forever.
- Who you marry can impact your ability to focus.
- He or she who focuses the longest wins.
- Focus and discipline are habits that everyone can
learn.
- Worry destroys focus.
- Be flexibly focused. Focus does not mean being
narrow-minded or rigid.
- Be pliable enough to adjust to changing
circumstances.
It pays to listen and to be willing to change your mind.

4. Life is unpredictable, the world is unpredictable, and
there is no reason our goals should keep us from changing and
growing along with it.
Focus on the evolving world, and you will keep in
touch with what is happening now.
*Do not limit yourself!!!
Realize that goals are not fixed patterns, act
accordingly, and your versatility will serve you well.
“Focus and discipline are habits, skills that everyone can
learn.”
As President Donald J. Trump will have it – He said
and I quote:
“Worry, fear, and indecision destroy focus. To take charge
of your life you must conquer fear. My advice is simply to zap
every negative thought as soon as it shows its ugly face.”
Stop the indecisive internal dialogue before it starts.
That is your biggest enemy. You can have enemies at your door,
deal with financial crises, fight legal battles, and face the biggest
difficulties in life, and none of these things will have any effect
on you if you control your mental dialogue.

5. “The worst hell you will ever face is the hell you
create with your own mind.” – It is much worse than the hell
other people create for you.
So instead of dwelling on all negatives, think about
what you want. Think about all the good things you are going to
do in life. Keep focused on your goal and never give up.
Besides, bad times bring great opportunities.
Focus is a tricky thing. Focus does not mean that you
narrow your mind and become inflexible. That is taking focus
way too far.
- Do not let your mind come up with reasons
WHY your ideas can’t work. Then take the best
ideas and act on them.
Your constructive actions will eventually lead you to a
solution.
NOTE!
Don’t get caught up in all the crap. Acknowledge the
problem, and then shift your attention immediately to possible
solutions.

6. Start by first thinking about what is good about the
existing situation. Then, dream up scenarios in which things are
better. Then come up with as many ideas as you can of ways to
attain the results you want.
Write down these ideas without judging them.
For me, every successful person has had to deal with
problems. I know people who see a problem as a game to be
won, and they focus on solving it. I know other people who see
every problem as a burden, and they are defeated before they
start.
Some people carry around a lot of mental baggage,
which destroys their focus. Get rid of it!!!
It just gets in the way and slows you down.
“If you want to become successful and stay successful,
you must learn how to focus.”
Never believe what anyone says about you, good or
bad, especially the media. Do not believe the bad stuff and
certainly learn not to believe the good stuff.
- Draw your own conclusions about yourself.
Listen to your own counsel. Nobody knows you
better than you do.

7. I use three [3] lists to maintain my focus. The first list
contains the greatest goals I wants to achieve in my life; the
second list has the things I need to do this year in order to reach
my life goals; and the final list keeps me focused on the things I
needs to do today in order to reach my life goals.
It is very simple; the key to making this system work
is discipline.
The ultimate winner is the man or woman who has the
discipline to do this every day of their lives, without fail.
Reality taught me an important lesson: I could not
have it both ways. If I wanted to be the greatest, the amazing
Adewale Aladesuru who makes everything he touches turn to
gold, then I needed to focus.
Lastly, remember this: “If you ever get into deep
difficulty, always focus on the things that make you feel better.”
Thanks.
To your success!!!
