You see what you’re looking for

From “Listen To Your Day: The Life-Changing Practice of Paying Attention” by Paul Angone

The lesson of we see what we’re looking for is a profound one.

What if we applied these principles not to our marketing strategies but to the way we live and see our day, every day. How can we use this strategy to combat inattentional blindness and truly see what is in front of us?

What if we applied the same principle of we see what we’re looking for and combine it with this Bible verse from the apostle Paul, teaching the people of Philipp:

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things. Philippians 4:8 NIV

I don’t think Paul was teaching people to think about what is noble, lovely, pure, excellent, and praiseworthy so that they could naively trick themselves into having better thoughts.

No, I believe he was admonishing them to think about these amazing aspects of life so they could see how rich their lives were with these things.

You see what you’re looking for.
