Shamelessly blogging about whatever happens to be bouncing around in my head. You've been warned.......

Before you get what you want...you must decide what you want......
"The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want."
- Ben Stein
What do you want?
Do you want to catch a fish? Grab a pole and go to the place where you know the fish are biting........
You can take this literally or figuratively. You might not really want to catch an actual live fish.....but I think you know what I mean. Go where you know you can get what you want. Make sure you take along the tools you will need in order to get what you want.
Do you want to look great at the beach this summer? Wishing and hoping and dreaming will not make it happen. You must do this:
Often.............
Decide and then make it happen.
Perhaps you want peace. Our lives are so stressful. We work, we shop, we care for others. We are pulled in a thousand different directions every day. If you decide it is peace that you want, it will not drop into your lap. Make room for peace and invite it to come......
Do you want friendship? You must be a friend to have a friend....
.
....and be willing to stick your neck out once in awhile and carry that friend when times get tough......
Decide that no matter what.....you are going to be a friend. You will have more friends than you know what to do with......
It's a sad thing when you go through life not getting what you want.....
It's an even greater tragedy when you never know what you want..........
Decide what you want and then go get it............
The world is your oyster.......
so.....if you decide it's a pearl that you want.....
......put on your diving gear and don't stop until you find it!
And never settle for anything less.
And this is my Daily Cyn........
