3 Secrets to LASER Focus, Concentration and Success

Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron and I help people expand their consciousness. Now in this video, I'll be sharing with you 3 secrets to having laser-like focus, more concentration, and really being able to be successful with whatever you want to do. Now I believe this video can show you the missing link for a lot of people and being more motivated to do what they want to do and really allow you to understand how to become more present to the moment while you're taking action and how over time that compounds into very powerful momentum. Now this is something that I've learned from experience. It's also things that I've learned from certain techniques that I'm going to share with you. And the first technique that I'm going to share is what is called the Dickens process. Now this is something that Tony Robbins made very popular and it's this understanding of how we can associate massive pain with who we don't prefer to be. Now to understand this, you may remember the movie A Christmas Carol with the character in it named Scrooge. Now in the movie he goes back and is able to see the timelines of how things would have been if he kept the patterns that he had going on his life and he saw, I think, 3 different scenarios of what that would be. Now at the end of it he came to learn that he had to change in order to really be who he preferred to be and to really have a fulfilling life from looking on that. Now what this technique allows you to do is it allows you to see the limiting patterns that you have in your life and also how to develop a strong why of why you're doing what you're doing, which is the missing link for so many people when it comes to getting up and going to the gym. Don't feel like that, what will push you through it is having the vision of the outcome for who you prefer to be. And that's what's really allowed me to push through a lot of the action that I've had to take, a lot of the hard work that it takes for me to really put out such consistent content while constantly being busy. But that's through also using this technique I'm about to share with you. Now, this is called the Dickens technique or the Dickens process, and all it really means is that you're doing a, like, Visualization, and all it really means is you're going to do a quick visualization exercise. And what you're going to do is you're going to imagine yourself 3 months down the road, or 6 months down the road, and 9 months down the road, and years down the road. You're going to pick a certain timeline, and what you're going to do is you're going to imagine how your life will continue to go if you live with the patterns that you currently have and the lifestyle that that you currently have. Now, as you look at these patterns and as you see that vision, how do you notice that you respond to other people? How do you notice you feel about yourself? What kind of relationships do you have with other people? And as you start to look at these different aspects, become very aware of how you can associate pain with that vision, with that outcome. Now, you could do that for 6 months, for 9 months, for a year, for 2 years, for 10 years. Imagine what it would be like. Imagine the different scenarios you would be in and what you can begin to do is see the certain patterns that you're doing right now that are living and adding momentum to that. It could be patterns such as sleeping in every day. It could be patterns such as ways that you treat other people. It could be patterns as simply not acting on your passion and doing something you don't enjoy doing. It could be just a level of procrastination. Whatever it is, begin to look at these patterns and notice how it ends up being for you, how that momentum plays out. Now, the key is that as you look at these different patterns and as you see that image for who you may become, you can then allow yourself to associate massive pain with that version of yourself and with those patterns just by simply looking at it. All that means you do is you simply feel into it. You look into that with your image in your mind and you associate that with pain because that's not who you prefer to be. Now on the other side of this, what you can do is start to associate massive pleasure with being who you prefer to be. Now you could take that and reverse the process. You can do 6 months out, 9 months out, years out, and see how it would end up if you started to act on your passion. So you started to work out every day. How does that momentum change? How does that feel to you? And start to associate massive pleasure with that outcome. Now what you begin to do is you begin to rewire yourself, and as you come out of that exercise, you simply decide that who you prefer to be is the version of yourself that you're associating massive pleasure with. What you'll then develop is a level of awareness where you start to notice anytime you fall back into the old pattern, which may happen, and don't judge yourself when it does happen, but what you begin to do is develop a very strong ability to focus in the direction of what actually serves you, which then allows you to let go of all the distractions that aren't in alignment with that. For me to develop that focus, that concentration, I really had to get so strong on the outcome of who I prefer to be and anything that wasn't in alignment with it I had to really let go of, or at least do it less and less. That includes going out as often. Person, and maybe, you know, I live in Vegas, so going out with friends or doing things, uh, so often that it takes me away from the momentum of where I want to go. I've had to learn to immerse myself into that process as much as I possibly can. Now, we don't do this with judgment. We just simply do this with a level of discernment and awareness. Now, the second secret I have for you has to do with understanding the power of time blocking. Now, time blocking is something that will feel a little bit uncomfortable at first, but it's the idea that you get up in the morning and for the first half hour of your day, you do the highest leverage thing that you can possibly do, and you do that right when you wake up and you do it for a period of time. So maybe it's 20 minutes. Maybe you write for the first 30 minutes of your day. You create content, which is what I do, or whatever it is. Simply decide that that's what you're going to do. Now you don't have to do this right when you wake up in the morning or like the first thing, but the idea is that the earlier the better is just something I've personally found, but time blocking is so powerful. It's where what you do is you sit down or you do whatever you're going to do and you are just going to do that one thing for a period of time or until something gets done. Now I know people like Tim Ferriss does this. He just does, he has like a rule of like 5 or 10 pages a day or maybe it's even 2 pages a day, but it's where where you get into the habit of doing it, and time blocking is so powerful for doing this. Now when you make it a must that you do some small thing for a certain period of time a day, what happens is your brain starts to get used to it and you start to develop it. Anything that you do will feel uncomfortable when you haven't done it consistently. Now the more that you time block, the more that you do something specifically, the more you train yourself in getting used to being able to do whatever that is, and it becomes easier for you. You go. So recognize the highest leverage thing you could be doing. Set aside maybe half an hour a day where you're going to do that one thing. And the idea is that as you do that, you get more and more momentum. Now the caveat to this is something that I call taking present action. Now the idea, and normally the misnomer, is that when you take action, it's like bringing you out of the moment, or it's not as like spiritual or meditative as it is when you are just sitting there doing nothing. But the idea is to do whatever you are doing, engage in it 100%, and don't focus on anything else. Now what this means is that if you're going to do the dishes, simply do the dishes. Don't do the dishes and try to do something else at the same time or try to figure out something in your head. The idea is that begins to train you to be present to the moment. So that whatever you do, you give it 110%. Now that time blocking, you are only doing one thing and that is training you to become more present to the moment while you take action, which helps make it much more of an allowing process rather than adding resistance. Because if we have too many things we're focused on, we split our energy and we actually aren't effective. Now the The third secret I have for you has to do with something I've talked a lot about, but it is simply so powerful. It's understanding the power of our self-image and the way that we view ourselves. If we have a definition and a label that says we have ADHD, we have problems focusing, or we simply can't focus, that means we have a definition that is out of alignment with who we prefer to be. Now, me, for example, I grew up and I got to a place where I had to take Adderall, went to a doctor. They said that I had ADHD, took Adderall for years, and what I realized was the trigger for me was when I dropped the label of having it and I learned how to meditate. Now the powerful thing you can do is drop any labels that don't serve you. If you have a label that says you are a procrastinator, procrastinator, you can learn to let that go and to not identify with it. And the idea is that if you find yourself procrastinating, what you can learn to do is to let go of the self-image of thinking that that's who you are. Many times our self-image, and if we view ourselves and have certain definitions, what that does is that creates the experience in itself. When if all we would do is drop those definitions from our vocabulary and start to view ourselves ourselves in the best way we possibly can, that's when we're really able to make the changes. Because what we could end up doing is just working really hard but finding ourselves always falling back to the level of where we were before because of the self-image that we are. One of the strongest human desires there is is to remain consistent to the way that we define ourselves. So if we start to define ourselves in a new way, we will start to align up with the consistency of that. So realize that you have the ability to have a laser-like focus by getting very clear on the outcome of what you want to achieve, understanding that that is a part of your new self-image, and then associating massive pleasure with taking that action and having that kind of focus. Give, give, and start to associate so much pain with the remaining the same and the patterns that won't serve. And as you begin to do that, you can start to be present to the moment while you take that action, and that will be so powerful for you. So with that being said, I hope you guys enjoyed this video.
