# Attention is a superpower

    David Roma  ·   1 minute read

At our core, we are pure awareness — observing, present, infinite in potential.

We also have a tool called willpower.

It's the ability to direct our awareness (attention) toward something specific.

That act of directing attention using Will shapes 3D reality.

Whatever you point your attention at will grow.

Direct it at a book, and the book gets read; the information consumed. Direct it at the gym, and your body changes. Direct it at a business, and the business develops. Direct it at fear — the news, social media — and anxiety grows.

Attention is how we turn vision into material reality. A flash of inspiration arrives, it feels right, we make a decision, and then we point our focus there — consistently, over time — and the thing takes shape.

---

You are always directing your attention somewhere. The question is whether you're doing it consciously; with intention.

We have access to several higher-dimensional tools; like imagination, reasoning. But focusing of awareness - your creative life force - determines what gets built in your life.
