The reason why most people do not get what they really want in their lives is because they don’t know
what they want. If you were go to a busy shopping mall on any weekend and ask a number of randomly
selected people what they really want from their life then you are likely to get a lot of “I don’t know”
or “I haven’t really thought about it” type answers.
So why is this?
Well there are a couple of reasons. The first is that thinking about what you really want from life
requires effort and most people would prefer to waste time watching TV or sitting on social media for
hours.
The second reason is that as we progress through life it is easy to think that you already have what you
want. You have a steady job with steady income, a life partner, wonderful children, your own home,
two cars and so on. What else could you possibly want?
Dare To Dream
These days we are surrounded by motivational messages telling us to go after what we really want. So why do so many people fail to do this? Most people do not have a clue what they want but there are always exceptions of course.
There are people that dream of becoming successful in business, politics, sport, music, art, the movies
etc. These people dare to dream. But the sad fact is that most of these “dreamers” will never achieve
what they really want.
Why is this?
Well they do not have the mindset to do it. They have big dreams but that’s all they are – dreams. These people do not possess the right mentality to follow through and make it happen.
