Distraction Principle: Difference between revisions

Distractions can come from both external sources and internal sources. The motivation of someone intentionally creating external distractions is that they generate an assembly line of interference, which disables their ability to focus their attention on meaningful, accurate and truthful things. When people are unable to focus their attention, they effectively have attention deficit and scatter themselves. Thus, it is much harder for them to manifest anything meaningful to their spirit that requires a deeper concentration of focusing ones energy and intention. External distractions may include a variety of factors such as internet click bait, social media, phone or text messages, emotional dramas, substance abuse, porn, and fear based media and television shows. There are also [[Internal Distractions]], which are mostly caused by the unruly [[Negative Ego]]’s survival fears such as anxiety, worrying, obsessions, and fantasizing.

Misdirection is a form of deception in which the attention of an audience is focused on one thing in order to distract its attention from another, generally to take the advantage or controlling position on an issue.  Misdirection is the cornerstone of nearly all magic, so it is good to remember that Magicians, or people that use trickery to paint a false picture, are commonly using tactics to misdirect attention.
