MANY OF US SEEM TO HAVE A SENSE OF WHAT AN IDEAL LIFE LOOKS LIKE. WE FANTASIZE AND THINK "IF ONLY” AND THEN WE LET THOSE FANTASIES GO AS QUICKLY AS THE THOUGHTS BUBBLE UP. WHY IS IT SO EASY TO DISMISS WHAT WE DESIRE? WHY DO WE CONTINUE TO LIVE WITH THE YEARNING?
One reason might be the inability to recognize and believe that we have choices. All of us dream, but most of us let go of of our dreams, believing that they are so unrealistic, that they simply cannot happen. What if we contemplated them through, instead of dismissing them immediately?
Another block that pushes us towards dismissing our desires is lack of faith in our ability to achieve them. What would it take for you to learn how a dream can be transformed into reality? How can you KNOW what is possible without allowing yourself to take steps towards living your dreams? What would KNOWING mean to actually achieving them?
The biggest reason we dismiss our desires quickly is fear that our desires may fail us. If in becoming a reality our dreams disappoint us, we stop dreaming altogether. We risk dismissing our dreams because we do not actually KNOW our desires. This fear of being lost can be overwhelming and perpetuates living a life of unfulfilled yearning.
What would happen, if you actually made the decision to try instead of giving up?
How can the knowledge of what you can and cannot do bring your desires to life and enable you to create ones that you can live?
Transformational coaching guides people who yearn for more fulfillment in life to create choices that achieve your goals. How might coaching support creating awareness of your choices into action?
Love to hear what is keeping you from living your desires.
