What Are You Looking For?

The first thing we must do is ask,

What is of value to me? 
What is important or valuable to me? 
What am I looking for? 
What is it that I want? 
What end result do I want?" 

These questions and their answers play a very important role in your success. The interplay between your brain and mind will not support you in obtaining your goals until it clearly understands exactly what you want.

The information will not get through until you can answer the question, What do I want?

Wrap your mind around this idea - you must know what you want before you can become aware of how to get it.

By determining first what is of value to you, you automatically let information that is important to you filter through. You will increase your awareness of valuable opportunities and information that will help you obtain your goal by knowing exactly what you want - exactly what kind of house, job, car, income, client, relationship, etc.

Our brain-mind mechanism naturally filters out any information that is not of value to us or does not pose a threat to our security.

It is important to understand this.

  _Any information that is not of value to you   
   or does not pose a threat to your survival
   does not get through to you. It automatically    
   gets filtered out._

Like a spam filter on your email, the brain-mind functioning together screens out thousands of messages and allows only those messages or information to get through that have value to you. If it allowed any and all information to come through, it would overload you nervous system and you would be unable to cope with all the data presented to it. To ensure your survival, it also allows threats of physical or psychological harm to get through at all times.

There is simply too much information constantly coming at us. It's impossible for all of it to get through.

So, we must determine exactly what we want. This will allow our brain-mind mechanism to become highly selective as to what information is of real value to us.
