Why emotional intelligence focus works: Reticular Activator

Thanks goes to David Wainwright for sharing this article with me and other executives in job search. This describes the science behind visualizing your desires and the power of planting suggestions, like goals, in your subconscious. What are goals do you have for your career? Your life? Start with the simple goal of happiness and set your built-in GPS, your emotions, to HAPPINESS!

THE RETICULAR ACTIVATOR is a part of the brain the stays on alert. It's job is to make you notice some things and ignore other things (if you noticed everything, you'd be too distracted to function). When you buy a new VW, it seems like the whole world has bought VWs, because you notice them everywhere. That's the reticular activator at work.

Motivational speakers, business consultants, and authors of "success books" always stress the importance of having a clear goal. One of the reasons goals are so important is because they activate your reticular activator.
