Write It Down

“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.” ~ Helen Keller ~

Write down on paper in order of their importance, the things and conditions you really desire. Do not be afraid of desiring too much. Go the limit in writing down your desires.

What Do You Really Desire?
Although this is the starting point, it is where many people stop.

For years countless have been telling themselves, “they can’t have”, “can’t afford”, “can’t be” and “shouldn’t do”. They have adopted the belief that other people can, and they can’t. Their daily conversation is filled with more frustration of what they don’t have, than talk of their dreams and desires

Now is the time you can choose to keep your old thoughts, beliefs and excuses or accept that you CAN have what you really desire when you are ready to (1) identify what you desire, (2) write them on a list and (3) take the action required.


Ask yourself - what do you really desire? Just for now, for the sake of this exercise, ignore all those old thoughts of "can't have" for a minute and just write your list.

Then choose 3 items on this list of your desires that are the most important to you right now, and write specifically how much, what kind, where...anything that specifically defines each desire.

The clarity is important. If it's money you desire - How much money do you desire? If it's a new body weight or look - What exact body weight and measurements do you desire? If it's a new home you desire - What size and style of home do you desire? In what city or neighborhood do you desire to live? If you desire a new car - What kind of car do you desire? If you desire a vacation - Where do you desire to take your vacation?

On a clean sheet of paper, write only your top three specific desires. Attach a photograph or a clipping from a magazine that depicts your desire to this page. Carry this page with you every day. Look at it first thing in the morning, again at lunch and again at dinner.

Do not concern yourself at this point how any of this is going to be manifest or delivered to you. This step is to clarify for yourself what you DESIRE.

“Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”~ Martin Luther King, Jr ~

I heard William Shatner on Oprah's show tell her that he was wanting his perfect mate and wrote a list of everything he wanted in his wife. Oprah asked if he got it, and he pointed to a beautiful lady in the audience and ne beamed and said he did. I'm going start my list now.

When I write it down, it feels like I am really serious. Maybe that's why I don't write down as much as I should. whenI pout it on my list or in my catalog, it seems to have an energetic life of its own.
