Read the article on your website. Liked it, parts of it resonated Heres my problem In Nlp, they talk about people who are motivated towards and motivated against - or to put another way - people who move towards goals (desire) or people who dont want anything more than to avoid things going up **** creek. There are many people who are only motivated to action wen things are in emergency, or they absolutely have to do something. Like the student who suddenly feels desire to do a 4 wk assignment, 2 days before deadline. Alot of people dont feel desire towards anything, but rather their desires come from a drive to avoid something negative happening(fear) ie. I dont want to work, but I fear being broke more. My fear is alot of people may mistake laziness, or subconscious fear for lack of desire and it may now become a scapegoat. I want people who read your articles to dig deep, and question their motives. If they are regularly acheiving other goals, then fine, give some goals a miss, but have bigger goals they are working on But, if they are giving up goals, just to do nothing and wait for a goal they feel desire for, then they may get down the line and wish they had stuck it out. |

allow your desire to come from the feeling of the amazingness of experiencing life and getting things done. it feels amazing to get things done, not because i have to get them done to meet a deadline or for fear of something bad happening, but the process of creation and making things happen is an experience of life. stop layering thoughts and reasons over why you're doing things and just do them fully. become present. hope that helps alex |
