Part 1 of 5 - How "Pipe Dreams" Can Become
Part 1 of 5 - How "Pipe Dreams" Can Become Realities!

Take a look at yourself - inside and out. Where do you live
what job do you have, how do you relate to your friends and
family? What interests do you pursue, what adventures do you
have?
What do you truly want from life? Do you want wealth and
success, happiness and peace of mind? Do you want a family and
a yard, a yacht or a sports car? Where are you going? Do you
have a particular goal or are you just wandering through life?
You can accomplish anything you want in life - that's true. Once
you have a particular goal, you can fulfill that desire by
straightforward commitment and total conviction.
But what if you don't know what you want? Maybe your goals are
small ones - like losing some weight, or buying a new car.
Maybe getting a promotion of finding a mate. Whether you want a
bigger apartment or want to be a corporation president, any
avenue of prosperity and achievement is open to you if it is
truly what you want.
No goal is too small; no dream is too big. And even if you
aren't clear on your desires, you can tap into your subconscious
mind to get the answers and to find the paths to success.
Can you change your life - do you want to? Can you picture
yourself as your most perfect image of accomplishment? How does
it feel? If you have the desire to attain goals, the commitment
to follow through and the ability to creatively imagine yourself
in the position you dream of, you are more than halfway there.
The most successful leaders and artists throughout history have
followed specific paths and attained their hearts' desires.
Keep an open mind and a hopeful outlook - then change your
thinking. Put on the clothes of success. Act as though you
already have accomplished your desires. Then let the reality
catch up.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
Take a choice: money, health, physical energy, beauty, power,
recognition, adventure, contentment, achievement, authority,
self-expression, love, peace of mind, enlightenment. Would you
like any of these? If you are like most people today, you
probably want ALL of these.
But if you search your true desires, you might find that there
are a few things you want more than others. And, if you keep
going in your search, you'll find one desire that has been with
you your whole lifetime and is the one path you need to follow.
Although money is the obvious desire, it is usually not the
final goal. Indeed, money can, and does buy happiness - up to a
point. Once you have enough money to be financially secure or
to purchase the material objects you want, the true desire might
be something else.
Love is the goal of every person's heart. Whether it is love of
a mate, or a family, or respect and
recognition from peers and
fellow workers, love is the ageless pursuit. The mystics say
that love is the sole purpose of life - to give love and to find
it.
But love comes in many forms. Not only is there the overt
display of affection or true inner feelings, but there is the
self-respect and inner contentment that goes with accomplishment.
For some people, true peace of mind will never be attained until
they complete some creative tasks or achieve certain heights in
business.
Many people seek the authority that comes with a good position
in a job. Along with that can come recognition and fame.
Although you may want the money that is associated with high
management levels, many people simply seek that satisfaction of
working from the inner circles.
The goal of every person regardless of background and material
desires, is health. A sound body is the gift that will get you
to the other goals. Even a new diet and exercise plan can give
you more energy - the energy you'll need to accomplish success.
Adventure and travel is a driving force for many people. They
may seek jobs that involve travel, or they may be looking
forward to taking time off to visit the exotic ports and see the
other side of the world. If you don't want a long journey
perhaps you'd just like a few weeks in a sunny resort or the
luxury of a summer and winter vacation each year.
And then there is creativity and self-expression. What about
the book you're going to write or the watercolor class you'd
like to take? Creative expression is a wonderful inner release
that boosts confidence and gives you something to accomplish.
Finally, regardless of wealth and health, expression and love
everyone is looking for peace of mind. That's not to say
emptiness of mind, but to be rid of petty worries and confusion,
to be finished with fears and live in total awareness. It surely
is the ultimate lifetime goal.
