Most of us want something we don't currently have. Sometimes it tangible stuff, sometimes intangible.
Wishing for it, however, usually doesn't fulfill our aspirations.
Consider a well-used recipe for getting what we want:
- Be crystal clear about what it is we want.
- Make sure that want is righteous, and does not harm others.
- Dedicate the necessary time, effort, and resources required to attain that want.
- Ask for the help of critical others in attaining the want, and be prepared to reciprocate.
- Don't give up if the going gets a little rough in pursuit of the want.
