In our last blog, the focus was how the mind finds a way when you really want something. This blog is about excuses that appear when you don’t really want something?
Well that is just it, when the mind wants something its magnetism and attractive forces are switched on. When you don’t want really something you at the very least stop attracting it, consciously and/or subconsciously and at the very most you may actually be repelling it. If you find yourself making excuses it is not necessarily that you don’t have what it takes. It may simply be that you no longer want it bad enough. There are hundreds of reasons for excuses but an important one to discuss is this one. It may be that you were initially doing it for reasons other than for yourself. How many times do you go after things in life not because you really want it, but because the world wants it for you? Understanding this is huge; especially when it comes to goal attainment and ultimately feeling fulfilled. If you don’t truly want something, or if you get into things just to please others, you will find that your magnetism, your super powers to draw things closer to you will only work in the short term. If instead you can list what it is that you truly genuinely want, and take the appropriate steps you will find that your integrity strengthens. You may quickly also discover that you will become better at predicting the probability of achieving things. Even for things that are challenging in life you’ll find a way because you are resourceful, magnetic and determined. When deep down you suddenly don’t want things or never really had a heartfelt intention in first place for them, excuses appear. If you really don’t want something you find a way out, and excuses are the perfect justification or catalyst. When you want something bad enough, you’ll find a way no matter what is in your way. So don’t beat yourself down for making excuses, simply let excuses that surface cue you to examine closely what your true intentions are.
