“Strategic conceptualizing gains power in the correctness of its focus. If you’re not focused on something that is correct for you, it brings nothing. It brings resistance. It brings out those aspects of your Type, whatever they may be, the anger, the frustration, the bitterness, the disappointment, those things that lie as not-self themes in your design.
The mind cannot tell you. And this is the great joke. It's a wonderful joke. The mind cannot tell you. It can’t.
It cannot tell you what to focus on. It cannot. It has no right to tell you what to focus on. It does not. The focus doesn't come from the mind looking. It comes from the thing that hooks you. We’re here to be hooked. This is what the strategic conceptualizing is all about. You know the hook. You can taste it in your connection to this knowledge. We’re here to be grabbed. It’s only when we’re grabbed, it’s only when we find something that we can focus on that we actually feel healthy mentally. It's when you feel healthy mentally.
Think about all the thinking that you put into things that are simply not important, the fear mechanisms, the concerns about the tomorrow's and the consequences, and the ―this’s and the ―that’s and all of those things floating around. No wonder you're going to be full of anxiety. But if you stay with your focus, everything will fall into place. It does. And when something is there that calls your attention, then you can give your strategic attention to it. But it’s got to pull you. It’s got to call you.
The power of the consciousness field has been deeply, deeply limited for a long time. Because what you see in this world is homogenized focus. You see the way homogenized focus works. You can see that in any culture, in any society, the way you're oriented from the moment you come into the world, the way you're oriented to look for this thing or that thing, the way it's supposed to be, repeating over and over again points of homogenized focus, it’s not about uniqueness, it’s not about your potential.
Mind is meant to be so busy that it really doesn't notice that it isn't needed anymore. It’s not needed. It's not needed to direct the life. It's not needed for that. The beauty of your mind is that it can focus.
That means that what is there for you in this life has to be correct, because otherwise if you do not enter into those things correctly—think about not entering into a relationship correctly. And there you are with a strategic mind focusing on that. What do you think the details are going to reveal? You’re going to see it over and over again the things that aren’t right, that don't work, that you can’t fix.”
