Part 5 of 5 - How "Pipe Dreams" Can Become Realities!Jon Kogan Take a look at yourself - inside and out. Where do you live, what job do you have, how do you relate to your friends and family What interests do you pursue, what adventures do you have What do you truly want from life Do you want wealth and success, happiness and peace of mind Do you want a family and a yard, a yacht or a sports car Where are you going Do you have a particular goal or are you just wandering through life You can accomplish anything you want in life - thats true. Once you have a particular goal, you can fulfill that desire by straightforward commitment and total conviction. But what if you dont know what you want Maybe your goals are small ones - like losing some weight, or buying a new car. Maybe getting a promotion or finding a mate. Whether you want a bigger apartment or want to be a corporation president, any avenue of prosperity and achievement is open to you if it is truly what you want. No goal is too small; no dream is too big. And even if you arent clear on your desires, you can tap into your subconscious mind to get the answers and to find the paths to success. Can you change your life - do you want to Can you picture yourself as your most perfect image of accomplishment How does it feel If you have the desire to attain goals, the commitment to follow through and the ability to creatively imagine yourself in the position you dream of, you are more than halfway there. The most successful leaders and artists throughout history have followed specific paths and attained their hearts desires. Keep an open mind and a hopeful outlook - then change your thinking. Put on the clothes of success. Act as though you already have accomplished your desires. Then let the reality catch up. WHAT DO YOU WANT Take a choice: money, health, physical energy, beauty, power, recognition, adventure, contentment, achievement, authority, self-expression, love, peace of mind, enlightenment. Would you like any of these If you are like most people today, you probably want ALL of these. But if you search your true desires, you might find that there are a few things you want more than others. And, if you keep going in your search, youll find one desire that has been with you your whole lifetime and is the one path you need to follow. Although money is the obvious desire, it is usually not the final goal. Indeed, money can, and does buy happiness - up to a point. Once you have enough money to be financially secure or to purchase the material objects you want, the true desire might be something else. Love is the goal of every persons heart. Whether it is love of a mate, or a family, or respect and recognition from peers and fellow workers, love is the ageless pursuit. The mystics say that love is the sole purpose of life - to give love and to find it. But love comes in many forms. Not only is there the overt display of affection or true inner feelings, but there is the self-respect and inner contentment that goes with accomplishment. For some people, true peace of mind will never be attained until they complete some creative tasks or achieve certain heights in business. Many people seek the authority that comes with a good position in a job. Along with that can come recognition and fame. Although you may want the money that is associated with high management levels, many people simply seek that satisfaction of working from the inner circles. The goal of every person regardless of background and material desires, is health. A sound body is the gift that will get you to the other goals. Even a new diet and exercise plan can give you more energy - the energy youll need to accomplish success. Adventure and travel is a driving force for many people. They may seek jobs that involve travel, or they may be looking forward to taking time off to visit the exotic ports and see the other side of the world. If you dont want a long journey perhaps youd just like a few weeks in a sunny resort or the luxury of a summer and winter vacation each year. And then there is creativity and self-expression. What about the book youre going to write or the watercolor class youd like to take Creative expression is a wonderful inner release that boosts confidence and gives you something to accomplish. Finally, regardless of wealth and health, expression and love everyone is looking for peace of mind. Thats not to say emptiness of mind, but to be rid of petty worries and confusion, to be finished with fears and live in total awareness. It surely is the ultimate lifetime goal. © 2004, Jon Kogan, All Rights Reserved.
