THE IMPORTANCE OF WANTING
So many people are taught as a child that “I want doesn’t get!” They get taught that the correct phrase is “May I have…?”
Unfortunately, that’s just not the way the world and life works or has EVER worked! While those polite souls were waiting for a response to their “May I have…?” request, somebody more forceful, more success-orientated, was grabbing what they wanted and were way ahead of the queue in the success stakes.
And here’s the thing. The more you WANT something that is possible for you to get, and all the time you are doing something to get it, the more your subconscious will work to see that you reach your goal. If that means keeping you alive and active for longer that’s exactly what it will do!
Asking somebody else to get it for you removes the need for your subconscious to do anything other than wait…
It’s noticeable that those who are hungry for whatever success means to them – those who still WANT something they are striving for – are more active, more successful and more ALIVE than those who just sit and wait for a response to the “May I have…?” that they may have asked a very long time ago.
WANTING something, REALLY WANTING something and chasing after it, has its roots in our ancient inherited hunting instinct and all the time we are discharging that instinct, the more our subconscious will guide us towards it.
And when you get what you want, then immediately start wanting something else – it’s all about a PURPOSE for being alive!
Never stop WANTING!
