What do I want
What do I want?
Simple enough question, right? It's often hard to answer. Fact is, most people have no idea what they want. I like to call it... default mode.
Being in default mode is like being sleep, ya dig. When you're sleep, your mind is on auto-pilot. You're thinking just "because"... there's no rhyme or reason to it. You ain't consciously thinking, so therefore, you ain't thinking at all.
Now, just imagine if you got in tune with what you want... deep down. You know the things you may "wish" or hope you have. The perfect career, a new home, a new car, a new spouse, whatever your heart truly desires.
All you need is 5 minutes. Just 5 minutes of conscious thought about what you really want can make your hopes a reality. So, think about what you want for 5 minutes everyday and watch how that little act of meditation will change your life.

LOL!! Nah, my dude, I'm at peace with my hair loss. LMFAO!! But on a serious note, you're right. Just to spend more time with the family period, is a start in becoming more of a family man. To better myself, I need to 1 myself (plug!), meaning I will stop dwelling on the negative things and focus more on the positive. I need to realize that the world doesn't revolve around Shaun (although I like to think it does), and be more in tune with the feelings of others. Just this morning I said something that was taken negatively by my wife. Instead of me apologizing and smoothing over the situation, I told her she needed to grow up and get over it. Well we all know how that went.
All in all, I gotta stop being such an asshole at times. But Osok we can both better ourselves by working on that issue....LOL!! 1yaself!!

I can attest that the "little act of meditation" is a sure way of getting your goals off the ground and in motion. After 6 years of 'wanting', a divorce and four children later, I am finally in nursing school. With every desire and will in my soul to continue on to recieve my Master's Degree. Which I may or may not recieve by the time my oldest graduates high school, but rest assured I will recieve it. My highest priority in life is to raise my children to the best of my ability with God on my side. After which comes my aching desire to educate young women on the beauty, power and strength they have within. To know that whenever you use the word can't, it's you placing obstacles in your own path......
It's good to dream, just don't over sleep!!!
Take care ya'll and thanks for the invite Born!!!

That's what's up Tamera! I like that desire!
I gots to 1ya tho!
You already have what you desire. I'm certain of it and can show you why, but I'll save that for another discussion...
You don't need to 'ache' for your desires. THEY ARE YOURS! You already have them and are in the process of manifesting them right now! You don't have to struggle to achieve your desires. Just allow them to come into your life.

Yes, but for myself at one time and many other's, if not all at one point in our lives. Alowing desires, and/or all things good is often a struggle, being as many of us don't believe that they are possible or that we deserve them....

Oh trust me, I know EXACTLY what you mean. You can just imagine how I felt when I realized that you don't have to struggle to get what you want. It's real simple... just like Elijah said...
You don't have to waste time talking about a dirty glass. Just put a clean glass next to it.
We struggle for our desires because of doubt and, more often than not, fear of failure. It is that resistance that causes the struggle. What you resist persists. In fighting NOT to fail, we bring that very failure into existence.
It is better to 1yaself and FOCUS on the clean glass, ya dig. In this case, the clean glass is your desire.
Stop thinking about the how as in...
How hard is this going to be?
How long is it going to take?
How will I be able to this AND be father, mother, student, son, daughter, etc.?
and start thinking about the WOW!
WOW... I did it!
WOW... Look at all the possibilities
WOW... I am in the process
There is no better time than NOW to focus on your desires and experience the feelings of joy and excitement they bring to your life.
