This approach is widely used in sport, in fact it's the only way of raising the bar to new heights. Every time a record is broken it is because the athlete focused on the previous record and then slightly bettered it.

In other words if you set a target anything less than the best, that is what you will achieve. That is not to say that simply thinking and wanting a record will ensure you get it, however not thinking about it will certainly never give it to you.

The immutable law of philosophy, "you are what you think" et al "you reap what you sew" and a million others, all reflect the same wisdom, and all mean exactly what this thread espouses.

Thus, if you focus on something, believe it totally, and take physical steps to ensure it's fruition, and providing it is possible, you are setting yourself up to achieve it. There is no guarantee of course, but just wishful thinking alone will probably not yield the desired result either.

Here ends the lesson
