In retail the mantra is Location, Location, Location. In life to be successful the mantra is Focus, Focus, Focus

It is a fact, whatever you focus your attention on, you attract more of the same.  When you focus on something you are giving it your energy and power. Feeling negative ALERTS you that you are giving your energy and power to the wrong things. 

Successfully focusing is a moment by moment thing. There are many people around you who are not focused on what you want. Do not let them cause you to lose focus on what you DO want.
