Have you ever wanted something soooo bad? I mean truly wanted something? Wanted it so bad that you're willing to change the world to get it? Willing to risk the status quo; willing to go out of your comfort zone; willing to do whatever it takes (and I mean really willing)?
I've been hit by this concept again and again lately. I spoke of it in my desire blog, but I was just given a jolt of desire electricity the other day by a friend. He's become a cyclist; and has gotten good at it. And I was told that "he would move Heaven and Earth" to make his rides.
That struck me ... hard ... like a hammer blow. He's willing to move Heaven and Earth to get what he wants ... and it's worked ... he's become what he wanted to become.
So I've got a couple of things that I really want to come into reality lately. Just thoughts, dreams, hopes, desires right now, but I can feel myself being drawn to them. As James Cameron says in his Ted Talk "imagination is a force that can actually manifest a reality." But you can only manifest a reality if you truly want your dream: If you are willing to move Heaven and Earth. And people who do amazing things, do move Heaven and Earth.
I wrote on my Facebook page the other day that "I'm in the mood to make some noise and do something amazing" and it is these wants that I'm talking about.
In his book "How to Get What You Really, Really, Really, Really Want," Dr. Wayne Dyer talks about how to manifest what you want. Of course the first part is wanting it bad enough to make a change and make it happen.
When I talk about moving Heaven and Earth, I mean what belief(s) (Heaven) will you have to question, challenge, give up to make it happen: And what core behavior(s) (Earth) will you need to question, change, let go of, to get what you really, really, really want?
So here's the question: "What do you really, really, really, really want?" "What would you move Heaven and Earth to have?" What would you have to let go of in your head and in your heart to get it? Maybe that cost is too high? Maybe you've just been kidding yourself and you'd only like it, and don't want it. Maybe you're not willing to play in the sandbox that has your dream in it.
Then again ... maybe you are willing to challenge the status quo ... your status quo ... and move Heaven and Earth to have What You Really, Really, Really, Really Want.
See you on the wire

Steven,
You say there's a list of things you really want, but you don't tell us what they are. How can we help if you don't share them?
