Focusing on what you don't want is exactly why you get it

Have you ever asked someone what they want out of life?

The Backward focus

Ever notice that often when you ask someone what they want - they tell you what they don't want.

Let's say it is financial related and you ask someone what they want.

They respond;

• To not have credit card debt

So what exactly is their focus then?......is it on credit card debt?

And if so, then doesn't that mean credit card debt will be part of their life one way or another in the future?

Conundrums

The example seems rather trivial but in the end most people know what they don't want when it comes to life, work, relationships etc.

However, knowing what they do want is sometimes not as easy to answer.

Kind of crazy if you think about it.
