Getting Clear on What you Want and Why You Want It

[laneyb]

I've been finding lately that I'm not always sure exactly what I want and why I want it. I've always wanted more money and to be able to make a passive income. But I'm trying to become clear on what I really, really want. Somehow I think I might be stuck because I'm not exactly clear. Like sometimes I want to move to a new city and other times I want to stay where I am. Sometimes I want lots more money and other times I feel like I'd be bored if I got it all at once. Then I get desperate and antsy about wanting more.

I think that it's a good time to get clear on what I want and why I want it and how I would use it to help those around me. I try to help those around me as much as possible, but I think more might be better. Unsure.

Are you absolutely clear on what you want and why you want it?

I am totally the same, I have been focussing on what I want which was jobs to open up back where we used to work back in the UK (we are currently in OZ), so this happened, 1st my hubby got asked to come for his interview,we booked his flight, then I panicked and thought `is this what i want to leave the sunshine and beach to go back to city life?` then next minute it turned around full circle, my eldest daughter decided she didnt want us to leave, cried her eyes out , so fight was cancelled, now we arent going back, well not just yet. Its crazy, te universe does answer and give you what you ask for , good and bad for sure.

Back to manifesting money now so we can go back whenever we fancy

Nah .... so many damned things I want that I keep forgetting what they are.

what i'm sure of is that i want to experience truth, live in love and outgrow my current limits (and yes i get the irony that 'wanting' it means it will remain a want).

beyond that, at the physical plane i don't know what's best for me to get there. my ego wants enough money that i don't have to work and can meditate lots, i want to be a good mum and partner and i want to be of service in my work.

an AA prayer works well for me: "thy will not mine be done". i just don't trust my oversized ego to know what's best for me

That is why the first thing I decided to manifested was happieness. No doubt what so ever that I went to be happy.

For me it was easy to manifest. Really as long as I'm happy, nothing else really matters. I'm able to let go of my other wants.

What else do I want? I want to work less. I was to work part time, and I to do something I love doing, and I want to be comfortable. I'd like some passive income. but I don't know that I want to be wealthy.

I want to meet my soul mate, have a healthy relationship, and grow old together.

That's really the most important thing, isn't it? Sometimes, I feel like I want to manifest money so I can be happy and I neglect looking at all the great things I've already got! Such a good reminder. Thank you.

Get clear on how you would like to feel and how you would like to be. Go general. It's a better start. You can fill the details in as you go. Unless you are permanently in a state of alignment or close, worrying about the details, or even just trying to figure them out will backfire and make you miserable.

Go general. Think about what is important to you. Feeling smart? feeling opulent? using your hands? Using your brain? using your creativity? being free to travel? Do you really want to travel? If so why? How do you want to feel when you get up and look outside your windows? How do you want to feel about your friends, family, money.

If you can't decide which city you want to live in, it means that it is not relevant. What is relevant is how you want to feel?

You would be bored if you knew and had everything at once. Allow it to unfold and just trust that it is going to be exciting. Feeling antsy is blocking your progress...

We know that thought creates reality, and that theoretically all things are possible. (Well, if not all things, then a heck of a lot of things). In practice, it turns out to be not quite like that.

The simple reason is that different aspects of the realities we have created are constantly conflicting and colliding with different aspects of realities that we want to create.

In abstract terms -

-- you may want adventure, but you may also want security.

-- you may want a soul mate, but you may also want to f*** with lots of different people.

-- you may want money, but you may despise the materialism that often comes with money.

-- you may want health, but you may not want the sweaty effort of 4 times weekly at the gym.

-- you may want plenty of friends, but you may also want privacy.

And so, change is the only constant. Your reality will fluctuate and oscillate and morph and change and twist and turn and swing back and forth -

because that's the way your thoughts work.

Yes, this LOA stuff is damned tricky.

Basically, control your thoughts control your life.

Sometimes I think that I actually do get every single thing I want - often, the trouble is that I either don't know what I want, or that subconsciously I want the opposite of what I consciously think I want, so I end up manifesting confusion!
