The Power of
Focus
By
Dr. Shubha Rajan, Ph. D.,
What is LIFE?
L = Live Life
I = involved
F = with fun &
E= effectiveness
Looking Inwards…
• Often we
• Consider ourselves to be inefficient?
• Wonder : “What’s wrong with me?!”
• Criticize ourselves for being disorganized?
• Feel that we are floating through life?
• Build castles in the air - Fantasize
• Have serious aims that we want to accomplish
• Have dreams that we want to achieve
• We are on the “ I’ll do this when that happens”
mode?
HELP! HELP!!
Lets understand – Why we are how we are –
 Are we announcing your destination or
managing your journey?
 Are we organized by mind?
 Do we have a flair for organizing?
 Are we Left Brain or Right Brain dominant?
 Is there a childhood history of
disorganization?
 Is it that we are just not focused about this
event called life – our life?
1 Point Program to Success

In this event …
Lets look at the small mechanics of
 What is Success
and
 The Power of Focus
WHAT IS SUCCESS ?
SUCCESS IS
P ROGRESSIVE
R EALIZATION
W ORTHWHILE
P REDETERMINED
P ERSONAL
G OALS

S PECIFIC
M EASURABLE

Service
Career

Relationships
3% PEOPLE ARE WEALTHY - WRITTEN
SPECIFIC
GOALS.
10% PEOPLE ARE FINANCIALLY WELL
OFF - CLEAR GOALS.
60% PEOPLE ARE GETTING BY – FEW
GOALS.
27% PEOPLE NEED SUPPORT – NO
GOALS.
RESEARCH SHOWS THAT :
Strategy to Goals
Management
Classify your goals –
A B C
 Sort the B category into A and C
again
 Now the Cs can wait while you
finish working on the As
 Put a time frame and start working
on them straightaway
SUCCESS IS GOAL
DIRECTED ACTION !
E C
MOTIV / A TION
Reasons Go
Purpose Do
Act
Goal
Motivation is also
a Goal Directed
Action
INCENTIVE MOTIVATION
FEAR MOTIVATION
ATTITUDINAL MOTIVATION
TYPES OF MOTIVATION
ATTITUDINAL MOTIVATION
SUCCESS
RESULTS
BEHAVIOUR – Act
ATTITUDE - Habit of Thought
CONDITIONING
SPACED REPETITION
Barriers to Motivation
The Slight Edge
The Circle of Influence
and the Circle of
Concern
The quality of your life is determined by
the power of your choice
This is a transition
from
Lots of frittered effort and varied result
to
Concentrated effort and focused result
Quality of Life
Roadblock …
P – PRIORITY
U – FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN
T – TIME OR THE LACK OF IT
O – OVERLOAD
F – FEAR OF FAILURE
F – FEELINGS : Emotional
discomfort
The ABC of a task
A – Anticipate your needs
B – Bar the door
C – Concentrate only on
the task at hand
Solutions
• DO IT NOW VERSUS
• NOTE IT NOW & DO IT
LATER
• Say NO! To yourself and to
others
• The Not to do List
In this event …
Success we know now
BUT
What is
The Power of Focus
Conceive! Believe!! Achieve!!!
Whatever the mind can
conceive and believe – it
can achieve
- Napoleon Hill
Three Stages
There are only three
stages in life -
In control
Not in control
Not knowing if you
are/are not in control
Programmed out of
Control
 We are conditioned by our past
experiences
 Victim of our circumstances
 Our mind is on auto pilot and only we
can switch it off
Switch off the Auto Pilot
 Whatever you focus on manifests as reality
in your life
 The results you get are always the result of
your focus
 Focusing on what you DO NOT want
makes only that happen
 So then focusing on what you DO want
will make only that happen
Do you Know…
 All of us are very focused
 We just do not know what to focus on
 We drift through life with too many
thoughts on our minds
 We fritter away our energy on non
consequential issues which gives us a
false sense of being busy and alive
Mind Power
 The mind is very powerful – you
can have whatever you want if you
focus correctly
 The mind does not recognize
Positive or Negative
 If you focus – it works on that
issue
 Positive or Negative is your choice
The Stumbling Block
We already have a focusing
mechanism in place which might be
causing more harm than help
We have to unlearn our old focusing
habits and relearn new positive
thinking methods
Focus the Easy Way …
 List what you do not want
 List what you do want
 Do not think about what you do not
want
 Affirm to yourself
 Speak it repeatedly to yourself
 When you get confused – ask questions
– it will shift your focus and get you
clarity
Easy Way
 Set Goals
 Affirm
 Visualize
And then
Practice Practice Practice
 It looks Difficult
 It looks Simplistic
 It looks like a lot of work
But
 It is not very difficult
 It is very simple
 It is a little extra work
Strategy
 If you are hungry – you focus on getting yourself food
 If you eat - your hunger is gone Alternatively
 If you focus on why you are hungry - due to skipping
an earlier meal - had no time - due to running late -
makes you angry – do you think you will feel satisfied?
No!
 Focus on what you need, in the first place.
Grass Is Greener…
 The grass is really not greener on the
other side – It looks like that because you
are focusing on that and not on your own
patch of grass.
 Others are successful because they are
focusing on their kind of success – check
where are you focusing?!
I wish You all
Great Success
with
the Power of Focus
in this Beautiful
Event Called Life.

  • 28. Three Stages There are only three stages in life - In control Not in control Not knowing if you are/are not in control
  • 29. Programmed out of Control  We are conditioned by our past experiences  Victim of our circumstances  Our mind is on auto pilot and only we can switch it off

  • 31. Do you Know…  All of us are very focused  We just do not know what to focus on  We drift through life with too many thoughts on our minds  We fritter away our energy on non consequential issues which gives us a false sense of being busy and alive
  • 32. Mind Power  The mind is very powerful – you can have whatever you want if you focus correctly  The mind does not recognize Positive or Negative  If you focus – it works on that issue  Positive or Negative is your choice

Strategy  If you are hungry – you focus on getting yourself food  If you eat - your hunger is gone Alternatively  If you focus on why you are hungry - due to skipping an earlier meal - had no time - due to running late - makes you angry – do you think you will feel satisfied? No!  Focus on what you need, in the first place.
