You must decide what you want your life to be about and stimulate that decision with intense desire, if you intend to pre-pave the way to the life you dream of living. If your attitude is lackadaisical, your future is anyone’s guess.
When Alice asked the queen, “Which road should I take?”
The queen responded, “Where do you want to go.”
Alice replied, “I’m really not sure,”
To which the queen answered, “Then take any road you want; it really doesn’t matter.”
Most folks drift through life taking any road that comes along, because they have convinced themselves, “it doesn’t really matter.” This kind of thinking arises from a feeling of helplessness. Helplessness is a learned state that denies your potential. It has you finding yourself in the same situation year in and year out. It is the root cause of frustration and failure.
You were not born to lose. You did not take on human form to journey down any road that comes along. You need to realize that the way to happiness lies with your clear visions of what you intend.
Today I took any road that came along. I let my friends tell me what to do. boy do I regret that. I wish I read this blog this morning
I am taking your 90 day program and loved this page. I am still fighting with a lackadaisacal attitude, but find the program is helping me see things differently.
It feels like the world is pre-paving my path to the future, I need to get a grip. good reminder
No, we were not born to lose. Great reminder. How come so many human beings feel that way these days?
I never liked the alice in Wonderland story, and I don’t think life is so easy that we can just decide what road to take and it is there for us.
I didn’t like the queen in Alice in Wonderland. If she gave me advice, I wouldn’t have learned anything from it because I would be too busy trying to get away from her.
apprently you do not believe in pre-destiny. I think some people are just born to win and some are born to fail from past live karma. Maybe some self-made people do it all in this lifetime, but I haven’t met any yet. Perhaps I should look at myself and how I resign my life to powers beyond me.
I love the feeling of intense desire. it makes me feel alive. It is easy to move forward when I am motivated by intense desire. Which comes first, knowing whereI want to go, or the intense desire to succeed?
I have a friend who seems to take any old road like it just doesn’t matter, and yet he comes out on top. how do you explain that?
I’m not sure who prepaves the way, but clearly it’s not me. I’m barely keeping my head above water.
