Das Mysterium der Wahrnehmung, Bewusstheit und Aufmerksamkeit

If you want anything in your life, you need to increase the attention you dedicate to fulfilling your desires and become aware of the factors that lead to their realization. If you want to get rid of something in your life, you must recognize what created it and then let it go. If you want to appear attractive to others, mindful and well-considered behavior will make you irresistible. If you want to be more successful in your job or relationship, it is essential to pay more attention to your partner's wishes.

Attention is universal; it permeates everything, and you use it every second of your life—unfortunately, mostly unconsciously. There is no situation that cannot be improved by feeding it with more attention. Is your relationship gradually becoming stale? Give it more attention. Are your feelings in turmoil? Then there is something vying for your attention. Do you want to learn something new? Focus your attention on it. Is there something you believe you do not know? Direct more attention to it.

You can learn to dedicate just the right amount of energy and attention to all things in life. If you give too little, your connection to the person, place, or thing will wither. If you give too much, it will drown. A casually maintained attention—without fixation—can lead to a steady flow of constructive energy. Great practical exercises and examples will lead you to profound insights about your life, which you can shape according to your desires—far removed from any external control. Frederick E.
