31 Days to New Beginnings (Online Course)
The human brain is wired to focus on problems—this helped our ancestors survive. However, in today’s world, this tendency to dwell on what's wrong can become a major barrier to progress and personal growth. Historically, spiritual leaders, philosophers, and psychologists have understood that our focus creates our reality. The law of attraction and teachings of manifestation all point to one truth: you attract what you focus on.

This subject ties directly into the core of the Rethink Podcast, which centers around Manifestation, Higher Consciousness, Self-Improvement, and Enlightenment. Focusing on problems traps us in a lower frequency of fear, doubt, and limitation, while focusing on possibilities opens us up to new opportunities, creative solutions, and growth.

Here are some scientific insights about focusing and how it relates to the Law of Attraction:

1. Reticular Activating System (RAS):

The Reticular Activating System (RAS) is a network of neurons in the brain that filters information and determines what is important for you to focus on. Essentially, it helps us notice things that align with our dominant thoughts or focus. For example, if you’re thinking about buying a new car, you start noticing that particular car model everywhere.

Relation to Law of Attraction:
The RAS helps filter information based on your thoughts and focus, aligning with the idea that "what you focus on expands" in the Law of Attraction. When you focus on positive outcomes, your brain looks for opportunities that match that focus, making it easier to "attract" what you want.

2. Neuroplasticity:

Neuroplasticity is the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections based on thoughts, behaviors, and experiences. When you focus consistently on a specific goal, positive thought, or affirmation, your brain strengthens those pathways, making the desired outcome more likely.

Relation to Law of Attraction:
This aligns with the Law of Attraction’s idea that focusing on positive thoughts can help manifest your desires. The brain becomes wired to support your goals, making it easier for you to act in ways that bring those goals to fruition.

Relation to Law of Attraction:
CBT’s principle of changing negative thoughts into positive ones mirrors the Law of Attraction's belief in focusing on what you want to manifest. Both emphasize that the more you focus on positive, empowering thoughts, the more you are likely to see positive changes in your life.
