The First Step is Knowing What You Want

By John Holland

Do you truly ever know what you want? All too often, people go through their lives on a day-to-day basis letting ‘ life live them,’ living in hope that the future will bring them something special. I know many people who hop from psychic to psychic hoping they will be told something positive or wonderful about their future. Yes, a psychic may see something that’s not in the realm of your consciousness, but in reality, it’s far more likely that you’ll be able to help yourself if you have some idea of what you want. Let’s use the analogy of a bouncing ball, where the ball represents an idea or a specific thought you might have. Working on a psychic level, I can follow where the ball’s going to bounce or what direction it’s likely to take.

Using this analogy, you have to at least start bouncing the ball! So, before you start visualizing, you have to be able to create a picture of what you want. I’ve met so many people who are still unclear of what they actually want. Some don’t even know where to start. So, if this resonates or sounds like you, or someone you know, this article may help you.

The best place to start is by letting go of what you don’t want. If you really can’t figure out what you want to do, to be, or accomplish, then make a list of people, situations, emotions, and habits that aren’t for your highest good. As always, don’t forget to journal your thoughts, as you never know when you may want to revisit them. Once you start, you should be willing and ready to let go of them.

So if you’re ready, let’s get your journal and write on top of the page: “I am letting go of ________.” You may add to the list, change it, even delete it, or whatever you want. This is a lifelong process, one that will change and evolve with you. It’s a good idea to include a positive affirmation at the end of the list. Here’s one of my favorites: “I am now releasing these things in my life for my highest good and I bless them all. Let Go – Let God.”
