Discover What You Really Want
Ever wonder why some people never get anything good out of their life? That’s because they don’t know what they want in the first place!
You must be specific in your passions, then you must focus all your efforts on that particular desire.
Some people don’t really know what they want. For one moment they’re excited over a particular thing or endeavor. The next thing you know they completely abandon it; either because they lose their interest or because they give up when they encounter a little problem. They will never get anywhere when they always change their minds or give up easily just because the going gets tough. They have not experienced a spiritual awakening. Maybe right now you’re a bit confused. You don’t seem to know what you really want in life. You might want to consider these to start your spiritual journey:
1. What stirs your excitement?
2. What makes you happy?
3. What are you consistently thinking of day & night?
4. What do you want to do for the rest of your life?
5. What do you enjoy doing?
6. What are your obsessions?
7. What things make you jump with joy?
To help you out, just follow these steps.
1. Write on a piece of paper all your possible answers for the seven questions above. Write anything, even seemingly unimportant ones.
2. Encircle 5 to 7 items that interests you the most.
3. Then evaluate and choose with your heart the one and only thing that is worthy to spend all your time and resources with. The choice you make should be something that allows your inner talents to shine.
Other than the exercise above, you could also ask your close friends and relatives about their personal dreams. You could also read books and surf the net to help you in your search.
Use your heart. Other people may disagree with you, but you should be firm with what you really want. Others may give comments or advice but you have the final say on the decision making. You should concentrate on what you want, not on what others want for you.
Then you have to constantly visualize and affirm your desires.
If you want to be a lawyer, visualize as one. Act like one. Think of what suit you’re wearing, the judge you’re convincing, the case you’re handling, and the courtroom you’re in. Visualize the evidences. Smell the victory. Make everything real.
Believe that you are what you are visualizing. So you want to be a lawyer? Tell yourself, ‘I’m the best lawyer in the world.’ Don’t say to yourself, ‘I will be the best lawyer in the world.’
Affirm strongly. Say ‘I am,’ not ‘I will,’ because ‘I will’ suggests something that will occur only in the future. It has to be something you experience NOW and not in the future.
You must sink into your subconscious your deepest desire. The subconscious mind can do what the conscious mind cannot.
Here’s an exercise.
1. Find a quiet and comfortable place to rest.
2. Relax your whole body. Command every part of your body to relax starting from your feet up to your head.
3. Count back slowly from 20 to 1 while relaxing deeper and deeper with each count. Upon reaching 1, you are completely relaxed.
4. Now affirm your deepest desire. If you want to be a lawyer, say,’ I am the greatest lawyer in the world.’ As you’re saying that, picture yourself to be the best lawyer ever, winning every case you’ve come across. You may say ‘I am now explaining to the jury my winning proposition’ or anything that will affirm what you’re conceiving in your mind as of the moment.
5. After about 10 to 20 minutes of continuous confirmation and visualization, count slowly from 1 to 20. Upon counting, slowly be aware of your surroundings. Feel refreshed and invigorated after doing this exercise.
6. Repeat this exercise every day. What you have just learned is a very powerful technique that enhances the power of visualization and affirmation by embedding it into the subsconsious. What once is nearly impossible to achieve will become easier to reach from now on.
Don’t go sleeping tonight without making a final decision on WHAT YOU REALLY WANT IN LIFE MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE. Then every day, visualize and affirm.
