Your mind is very good at answering the questions that you ask of it. If you ask yourself “why is this opportunity not good for me,” your mind will help you come up with answers. Similarly if you ask yourself “given all of the challenges I’m facing, what can I do to make this work” your mind will come up with answers to that question as well.
This is because your mind will go where you direct your attention. Give your mind a question, and it will focus on helping you figure out the answer. Where you focus is where you go.
Be deliberate and choosy about the questions you ask yourself. Ask yourself the questions that will move you forward. Direct your focus towards where you want to go and let your mind help you get there.
