Introduction

It's important for Tinnitus sufferers to focus on what they want instead of what they don't want. For example; if you focus on how bad your tinnitus is, it can't possibly get any better.

Main Item

As I've said many times before and have written in several previous articles, it's important for Tinnitus sufferers to focus on what they want instead of what they don't want.

For example; if you focus on how bad your tinnitus is, it can't possibly get any better.

But, why is this? Why can't tinnitus get better if you focus your mind on tinnitus

The truth is that most of us have been taught that if we focus on the problem long enough and use all of our mind's energy to fix the problem that it will get better. However, this is false. You cannot fix a problem created by the mind using the same mind that created it. The mind has only a limited amount of information available to it to fix problems. In fact, the mind has only its knowledge of past experiences to draw from. Therefore, if it has never fixed a problem like tinnitus before it cannot possibly comprehend all of the infinite number of ways that tinnitus can be cured or the countless number of ways to alleviate the symptoms.

So, if our mind is not powerful enough to fix tinnitus then what are we to do? Sit around and wait for a cure? Maybe, but sitting around waiting for something to happen while still being focused on the tinnitus will cause the tinnitus to get worse. We want somehow to find a way to make it better now, right

Well, based on my experience it is possible to have the best of both worlds. I believe that tinnitus will be cured one day but I also know that I can live a tinnitus free life right now. All I have to do is make a choice to live it right now. Not tomorrow, not in a year from now but right now. Because now is all we have. All that's ever been and all that ever will be is... now. You cannot live in the future and you cannot live in the past. You can only live now.

So, how do you choose to live in the now

By focusing on what it is you want and accept the way things are now and to be happy now. You see, that's all that you want is it not? You want to be happy. In fact, that's the goal of most people, to be happy. Yet, we're so focused on doing things to get a result that will make us happy in the future that we never really get there. Because when we get there we change the rules then focus on another goal and start the cycle all over again.

How can you be happy now and still have tinnitus

Simple, choose to be happy. If you stop giving negative energy to your tinnitus and choose to be happy in the moment then that's all you have to do. If you think you can only be happy when your tinnitus is cured then I guarantee you that you will live a long and very unhappy existence until the day you die. Because being focused on only being happy when your tinnitus is cured is completely backwards. You can only be happy now.

What are some of the ways you can learn to be happy in the moment

That's also a simple answer. By focusing on your true heart's desire and taking the necessary steps to achieve it then you will have succeeded in what most people will never achieve. Not only will you eventually live your dream but you will be happy everyday until you get there.

What is your true heart's desire

That's what your heart knows to be true. It's what your heart knows to be the direction your life should be taking. It's what you get excited about. For example if you're in a job or a business that you hate you cannot possibly ever be happy. You can of course enjoy brief moments of happiness but not true happiness.

You can only enjoy true happiness by following your true heart's desire. Anything less will be sure to bring you a life of distress, worry, doubt and constant fear. That's what I mean by focusing on what you want. What you really want is to follow your true heart's desire. Not only will you get it, because the universe will not allow you to fail, but you will always overcome any obstacles in your way no matter how big they are. Tinnitus is just an obstacle to overcome. Therefore, if you are focused on your true heart's desire your tinnitus will be conquered. It has to be. Nothing, including tinnitus, can take you out of the game if you're focused on what you want.
