They say we gravitate towards what we think about most; The power of the universe it's called by some. Whilst I think it's a great concept, you know, the concept that we can manifest whatever it is we want just by thinking about it and creating a picture-board, I also believe that a lot more goes into achieving the things we actually want. It would be great to just have to think about a thing and have it materialise the next day however that doesn't happen. Having said that, I certainly believe that we can be influenced by our thoughts.
The phrase I live my life by as above in the image helps me keep my saw sharp so to speak. I don't go about my day thinking about some material thing I need or want; To do so would be quite futile. Instead I focus on my ethos, design and create your ideal life, don't live it by default, and that alone ensures that my attitude and actions all point towards the goals I have set and the plan to reach them. Those goals may be to enjoy my weekend, to get a promotion, afford a new car, travel to a new part of the world, or as simple as creating a wonderful romantic evening for my wife and I to enjoy. It doesn't matter how big or small the goal is my ethos keeps me focussed on the activities required to achieve them.
I'm often asked in my professional life, "what attributes I applied, or brought to the industry, to accelerate my success" and I always answer with one simple word: Passion. The way I see it is that if one applies passion to everything they do then all the other things required to achieve true success will be easier to do. I mean, hard work, dedication, consistency, discipline and all the others. For me it all starts with passion and I find my passion from my ethos. It's a neat circle really where one element feeds off the other and pays it forward to the next.
It's my weekend right now and I'm passionately engaging in it. This weekend is the first race in the 2018 Formula One Grand Prix Championship and as a huge fan of F1 I'm planted in front of the television supporting my favourite driver and team. With passion. No matter what you're doing this weekend make sure you do it with passion, and design and create your ideal life. Go and own it!
