There are 2 main reasons why you don't get something in life.
Most people know what they want. They just don't have big enough reasons why they want it. Knowing why you want something, why you really want something is one of the biggest keys to your success in everything. The bigger the WHY reasons, the easier the "how to" becomes.
The "why" or reason you are doing something has to be stronger than the non-supportive beliefs, reasons, and excuses you have to not do something.
Many people focus on trying to get rid of what is getting in their way. And if you create big enough reasons why, that stuff doesn't get in your way anymore.
Most people who start to make a change or improvement in their life never follow through because they do not understand the power of "WHY."
So let us get those WHY reasons right now.
Why must you have something? Why is it absolutely imperative that you have it?
What is the reason that is going to have you leaping out of bed in the morning, set your spirit ablaze, give you the inspiration to follow through and have what you want and make it impossible for you to lay around and do nothing.
The most incredible thing you can do for yourself is have a big enough reason why that will totally light up your life and will remind you of that reason every single day.
Action step #1: Figure out what you want.
Remember, you can want more than one thing, and you can change what you want. Every one knows what they want, it is just some people are afraid. What if I don't' really want that, what if I cannot get it, what if I want something else. Don't worry about all that. Go for what you REALLY want now, and if you want something else later, you can change your mind.
Action step #2: Get yourself BIG reasons.
You have to create reasons that are an 11 on a scale of 10. When you look at those reasons, they are an 11. They really turn your crank and light you up. The reasons are so inspiring they keep you inspired every day. So ask yourself why? Why do you want this?
Action step #3 – Focus on what you want.
Visualize this, pray for this, ask for this, meditate on this, or whatever it is you do. Put feeling into it, write the reasons down, put it somewhere you will see it every day. Look at it every day. Get inspired by it. They key to getting what you want is focusing on what you want. Putting feeling and emotion into your focus can help tremendously. Emotions and feelings are a driving force or an energy to help create the manifestation you want. Focus on what you want.
The greatest thing you can do is to create these reasons for anything in life you want that you are not now getting. If the reasons are big enough, they will be bigger than anything that might have stopped you in the past. A big enough reason makes the “how to” easy.
What is your "why"?
