Getting What You Want in Life
Posted on June 30, 2009 - Filed Under Getting What You Want |
A little girl once asked me to write my name on a raffle ticket. Later I asked her if I won–she said yes. I asked her what I won. She replied, “Whatever you want”.
I thought at the time this was the best raffle ever. It made me think about what I would wish for if I could have whatever I want. This is terribly perplexing, actually. You think it would be easy.
I’ve had this issue before when I was reading Jack Canfield’s The Aladin Factor. In it, he asks you to write down 100 things you would like to have or do in your life. He does warn that it is not that easy to come up with 100. I only got to 66.
The point of the book is that writing things down is very powerful. You can put the list in a drawer and never look at it again. If you find the list in a few years, you will find that magically many of the things have happened. I made my list about 2 years ago, and already 70% of the items have come to fruition. I have not yet won a Noble Peace prize, but I’m not dead yet.
My point is that it is often hard to figure out what you really want in life. It seems like when we were kids, we could always think of what we want. Maybe some of that knowledge has gone away with the decrease in imagination. Maybe we’ve subconsciously accepted we won’t get what we want, so there is no reason to know what it would be.
I think it is both good and bad. Bad because you can feel a little lost if you don’t have some thing out there that you could get to make you happy. But good because it sort of makes you realize you don’t really need something out there to make you happy.
What would I wish for, really? More of the same (if I’m being honest with myself). I want more time with my children and more time with my husband. I want more money only so I have the freedom to be with my family all the time.
So the key thing here is that I already have what I want most in life. If I keep waiting to spend time with my family because I am trying to aquire enough money to spend time with them, they will be gone. If I wait for something more before I say my life is how I want it–I will never accept that it is how I want it. What if getting what you want in life isn’t about aquiring more, but realizing you already have it?
