Did you know that there’s no such thing as will power? No, there’s not. There’s only want
\npower. And please, feel free to quote me on that!!!<\/p>\n

“There is no such thing as will power, only want power.” ~ Janice Taylor<\/em><\/p>\n

Have you ever really wanted something? Wanted something so badly that you ached for it?
\nWanted something to intensely that you would move mountains to get it?<\/p>\n

I can remember when I was 20, I really, really – I mean really – wanted an MG Midget. I was
\nobsessed with it. It wasn’t simply a car to me. It was a symbol of what I wished to be. Owning
\nit and driving it about town meant that I would assume a new identity. In my mind’s eye, I saw
\nmyself driving, top down, down the highway, my scarf blowin’ in the wind. The radio was blasting,
\nand I was oh so happy. Happy!<\/p>\n

For a variety of reasons, owning that car was out of the question. It wasn’t going to happen!
\nBut the dream lived on and, with every passing hour, my want power muscle got bigger and
\nstronger.<\/p>\n

I wanted that car; I saw it in my mind’s eye. I carried the feeling of ‘it’ with me. And – I was – by
\nhook or by crook – going to get me an MG Midget! And … I did. I don’t know how I managed it,
\nmanifested it, but I did get me that MG Midget.<\/p>\n

If you want to get motivated and stay motivated, then best YOU focus on what you really
\nwant; what you truly want to achieve. Not what the world around you seems to want for you;
\nno, not that. Focus on what YOU really want.<\/p>\n

The mystical, magical thing about focusing on what you really want is that you will automatically
\nsteer your life in that direction and you will make the changes that are needed to actualize what
\nyou want. And these changes will stick.<\/p>\n

Spread the word \u2026 NOT the icing!<\/em><\/p>\n
