What We Do To…

In Life there’s what we (really) want and what we do to keep it out of our lives.

Yes, you read that correctly.

We keep what we want out of our lives by what we do.

And what we have in our lives is a perfect reflection of what we’ve done.

*  *  *

It’s quite simple really:

1) Get clear on what we really want.

2) Look at what we have and figure out why we want it more (than what we say we want).

3) Ascertain what we’re doing to create it (what we don’t want that is).

4) Figure out what we must do to create what we want.

5) Do that.
