Negative expectations yield negative results. Positive expectations yield positive results. This is most remarkably evident in sports. If you throw an object, shoot a basketball, or hit a tennis ball it will go where you want if you are absolutely focused and sure of the outcome. You, in effect, can will the object to its destination. This can be tested just around the home by throwing things in the basket. If you miss, note that you were unsure before and while you were throwing. If you score, you were sure, focused, and confident before and during the toss. Visualizing the outcome makes it happen ("Be the ball").
The power of the mind is the reason some athletes excel while others do not. Once the basic skills are in place and the neuromuscular coordination embedded into memory as a result of determined practice, the only thing remaining is will and focus. It has been proven that some people are able to tap into powers intrinsic to the mind that result in superhuman feats (a mother lifting a car off a child), movement of objects using only thought (psychokinesis), seeing the future (clairvoyance), and distant healing. If these things are true, little wonder the mind can enable great athletic skill or force an outcome in our lives. Power of mind applies far beyond motor skills. It can make the difference between success and failure in almost everything we do. But it is essential that the attention be unconflicted with no fear, uncertainty, or holding back. Some believe the power of the mind with such focused attention is unlimited. If that is true and we can tap into it, humankind will experience a revolution that will make all former technology seem like child's play. So don't think that hitting life's targets is a matter of chance or luck. Success is always within our hands. It is no more than a matter of gaining the skills, making a commitment, and then exerting focused confident attention to the goal with the sure expectation of the result.
