Dear Reader. I will soon be presenting seminars both off and online teaching how to Live in Balance by using what I've developed as the Major 8. If you would like to keep in touch so you'll know when this comes about, I encourage you to "Follow by Email" somewhere on this page. The following is one of the exercises we'll cover in the live sessions. Please let me know how it helps you in the comments area below.
What do you want?
Before we get started, let’s have some “fun” and get to know
what it is that we really “want”; that is why you are here reading these words,
right? Mark Twain said, “'I can teach
anybody how to get what they want out of life. The problem is that I can't find anybody who can tell
me what they want.” As
the Life and Legacy Coach™, that has also been my “dilemma” in coaching others
and admittedly, I’ve wrestled a bit with this in my own endeavors.
I’m convinced that people don’t achieve and “get” the things
they “say” they want because they don’t know what it is that they want! I
remember asking someone what they would do if they had “a million dollars”.
They responded that “they didn’t know”. And I told them that that was why they
will never have “a million dollars”. What a conversation that became!!!
Here’s an exercise to get you “knowing” what it is that you
“want” so you can actually move forward to gain abundance in your life. Zig
Ziglar said something like, “if you can’t see the target, you’ll never be able
to hit it”.
Following is a list of words that I’d like you to “write”
down leaving some space after each. If you’d like you can use a Word document
so you can update and edit over time; but there is something that causes things
to work better when you take pen in hand and write out things. Here are the
words:
Need
Wish
Desire
Goal
Dream
A Must
First think a bit about each of these words and their
differences. Most people use them interchangeably but they are “different”; if not
they would not exist. And you don’t have to run to Dictionary.com and get the
official meaning to each (unless you care to); what they mean to you is what’s
important.
These “nouns” are in no particular order and there are
hundreds of synonyms for these and we will cover a few later. Go ahead and
place a number before each in order of “size”, importance or in what it takes
to attain.
And now, take a few minutes to write down at least three
things under each heading. Don’t feel rushed. You can also come back during the
day (and week) and add more to each and “edit” your thoughts. As a matter of
fact, I want you to do so.
Doing this “simple” exercise will reveal to you what is most
important to you. It’s now out of your head (I didn’t say you were; but it
helps; LOL), on paper so you “see” it and you can now move forward with it (or
them).
Please leave your comments below as to how this was helpful.
Later we will see how you can go into further depth in each area, or the areas
you want to work the most in the Major 8™.
Make it a great day!
Ter Scott, Life and Legacy Coach ™PS. Manifest Wealth. If you know anything about me and the Major 8™, I look at achieving and manifesting wealth quite differently from about 98% of other teachers. However, if you are currently seeking “money” and “money related” things in your life, check this out. Manifesting Wealth by Dr. SteveG. Jones is the “real deal” and I have great respect of him and his work.
PSS. I almost forgot. Here is a book that I use in my seminars and talks: You can download it free here. Also, if you'd like to get details on having me speak to your group, please read my article here.
