I’ll give my energy to this. The old saying, “You get what you focus on.” That’s about thoughts, will, and intention manifesting into action. It’s true. It’s as true as the changing seasons the choice of where you put that energy is the way of your flow. It’s the way that you go.
The more you focus on something the more it’s going to manifest. It may be slight; it may be large but it will be there. The more you think about the more you ponder upon, the more you contemplate the more it will show itself.
The Choice is a Goal
The Choice is a goal. When you decide to place energy into a multi-nodal thought and action, it contacts many other parts of your life. Those parts of your life enjoy the vision, the focus the energy that you give it.
Some popular phrases people use to give their energy up are, “Some things never change,” that’s fatalism. That’s a what are you going do? Here’s another, “The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.” That’s the Pareto Distribution. Neither is absolute but you see that mental concrete in which you’re writing. This idea, I’ll give my energy to this. It’s about your focus you’re setting that mental concrete.
What part of your life do you leave unattended so anybody could come along and write the idea in that concrete? Are you attending to that idea, are you cleaning, sweeping, making sure that nobody trips over it?
The Destination of The Sidewalk
A sidewalk has a destination. What are you giving your energy to? Have you paused to see what truisms or even what is true?
What has been placed inside the concrete of your mind? How did the idea become part of your makeup? That’s not an easy task. That’s not an easy audit but it’s a question worth asking.
Then deciding if the idea deserves my energy is it worthy of my time, my focus, my energy? It’s my choice it is not something that somebody came along and wrote into the sidewalk of my life.
I make active choices on where I choose to spend my energy, where I choose to make things happen the way that I want. To give that focus of my energy. It’s where I give my energy. It’s where I decide. It’s where you should decide your energy is going to be given.
