What Do You Want? What Do You Really Want?

By Kate Corbin

"When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are, anything your heart desires will come to you." - from the movie, Pinocchio
What Do You Want? Desires and preferences are as natural as breathing but a lifetime of doing without or settling for less can numb you to your own desires. Throughout history, people have tried to suppress their desires. Perhaps their religion taught them that desires, especially for material things, are bad. Perhaps they were trained not to expect too much. Perhaps asking and not receiving became so painful that they quit even trying. Regardless of the reason, many people have lost touch with their own desires.

So, here's the most important question anyone will ever ask you - "What do you want?" The question is NOT "What do you think you can have?" It's NOT "What do you think you're supposed to want?" No more playing small. No more settling. No more following other people's agendas. The question is - "What is your heart's desire?" "What do YOU really and truly from the deepest part of your life want?" Decide what you want and ignore all the voices (both internal and external) that try to convince you that you can't have it or that you shouldn't even want it.

You CAN Have It. Ask yourself - "What would I go for if I knew I could have anything?" Well, go for it, because it's true - you CAN have anything your heart desires. With the Law of Attraction, the world is yours. The Law of Attraction is your hotline to Santa Claus, to your fairy godmother, to Aladdin and his lamp.

Allow yourself to want what you want and focus on the results you desire. Get so excited about the manifestation of your desire that you reach your natural high vibrational state of joy, empowerment and appreciation. When you get absolute clarity about what you want, you offer a vibrational signal as focused as a laser beam. Clarity and focus make you an extremely powerful magnet for attracting the objects of your desires.

"If you don't have a dream, how you gonna have a dream come true?" - from the movie, South Pacific
Dreams into Reality. Have you ever wanted something with all your heart? When you were a kid, did you sit on Santa's lap and tell him about the bike or the doll that you wanted more than anything in the world? Do you remember a time when you just had to have something and you got it? Maybe it was a date with that special someone - or a sexy new car - or the promotion you wanted so much you could taste it.

Remember how it felt to really want it, refuse to take NO for an answer, and then to see it manifest in your life? Remember jumping up and down screaming I did it! I did it! I did it! That magical, omnipotent, proud feeling of I did it! What if you could feel that way all the time? Ohmigosh, YOU CAN!!! It's YOUR Life and you're the writer, director, and actor of this amazing, technicolor production called YOUR LIFE.

Freedom, Growth and Joy. Are you aware that it's not really the external thing that you want? It's not really the spouse or the house or the million dollar bank account. It's how you think the fulfillment of your desire will make you feel. It's the feeling of freedom, growth and joy you truly desire. Every choice you make is an effort to satisfy one or more of these three basic desires. It's always the feeling behind the desire that is the motivating force.

So ask yourself - "What will bring me freedom?" "What will bring me growth?" "What will bring me joy?" Asking these questions can be helpful in determining what you really want. Whatever you desire - spiritual or material or both - you want it because you believe it will enable you to feel free, expansive and joyful.

The Process. In accordance with the Law of Attraction, here's the process for manifesting your desires: Get clear about what you want. Activate the vibration of your desire by imagining it, visualizing it, intending it, seeing it, feeling it, tasting it, etc. Expect it and allow it, knowing that You CAN Be and Do and Have whatever you desire!
