Do you know that an average person makes 35,000 decisions per day.
Whether you’re buying a lunch, going for a football match, or wanting your ideal relationship, trying to sort through the plethora of choices is overwhelming. And every decision you make is with the help of your subconscious mind.
So what you want in life? It’s no wonder why life’s biggest decisions feel so exhausting. Questions like, “What do I want from life,” ''What is my passion in life,” and “Where should I live” requires a huge amount of your subconscious mind.
If you’re not intentional about figuring out what you want in life, it’s easy to fall into survival mode. You become lost, focusing only on what’s in front of you, which leads to frustration and self-criticism.
Understanding what you want in life is important because it gives you purpose, can influence your career path, and makes life worth living.
I'm here to help you decide what you want in life and who you want to be.
#1. Deciding What You Want in Life (For Real, This Time)
If you knew that nothing could stop you, and that failure was impossible, what would you want? This is the question you want to ask yourself right now...what do you want in life?
And it’s time for you to write your answer to this down with clear and vivid detail. But first, you’ll need your own personal ‘blueprint’ to draw from.
What you decide now in this time will establish the foundation that everything else is built on.
So take a deep breath. Know that there’s NO way you can screw this up. Even if you made a list of things you want that didn’t have everything on it, you could always go back and add more whenever you wanted.
And if you put things on that you later realize aren’t important after all, you can always take them off.
All you really want to concern yourself with at this point is what you want in life and begin attracting into your life RIGHT NOW.
#2. Have a Clear Vision of What You Want in Life.
Have a clear vision, but don’t worry about how it will actually happen for you. And if you don’t know what you want exactly for any reason, that’s okay because you at least know that you want to feel good.
You want feelings of being loved, of having money, of being healthy, of enjoying life, etc.
You can start with just that, and the Universe will have enough to begin attracting things back to you that match it. But you probably have a lot more specific ideas already, so don’t be shy.
Choose whatever you really want in life. You’re not being selfish or petty if you put things on your list that are only for you, and nobody else.
You’re not being shallow if you only add material possessions like nice cars or lavish mansions.
And you’re not making it harder on yourself by including things that seem way too “big” to figure out how you’re going to get them. The ‘how’ is not your job, and nothing’s too big for the Universe.
So go nuts. Write a list of everything you want. And feel free to make it as long as you want.
In the end, it’s going to serve as a menu of items that you get to choose from for inspiration when you’re done writing your what do you want in life journal.
The more subjects you have to choose from, the more variety you have to work with.
With that said, if you’re wondering how many things you should put on it, there’s really no right or wrong answer. It all depends on your own personal preference.
Most people usually write anywhere between 5 and 20 things the first time they make their list.
Others might have 200. Have at least 5 or 10 if you can, but if there are only 2 or 3 things that you really want, so be it.
Finally, you want to make sure to take this very seriously and get excited! You’re about to place an order for anything you want.
By the time you even begin writing it down, it already exists vibrationally (yes, really!), the Universe is already holding it out toward you (yes, really!), and the only thing you need to do in order to ‘grab’ it is use the manifestation methods in many of my particles (yes!! ...really!!!!). Instructions for this are pretty simple.

#3. Express Gratitude For What You Want in Life.
Add a statement of at the top of your list expressing gratitude for all of the things that you want manifesting in your life.
You can choose whatever wording feels natural for you, but an easy example that you can use if you’d like is:
“I gratefully welcome all positive experiences and outcomes in my life, including:..”
#4. List Out Everything You Want in Life.
List out everything you want, one by one, with as much or as little detail as you’d like.
If you’re writing extended phrases or even complete sentences, they should all be phrased in the PRESENT tense.
This list serves as a vibrational reflection of you ALREADY having these things NOW (not “some day” in the distant unknown future).
After all, you DO have them now (or you’re ‘getting’ them now), even if they haven’t “physically” manifested in your reality at this current moment in time and space.
For example:
- “Getting the promotion at work” or “My promotion at work” (either phrase is fine)
- “Meeting my soulmate” / “Meeting the man of my dreams” / “Meeting the woman of my dreams” / “Having my soulmate in my life” / “My loving partner”
- “Enjoying perfect health” / “Enjoying a return to perfect health” / “Healing completely” / “My complete health” / “My healthy body”
#5. Include The Reasons Why You Want These Things in Life.
If you want to add a little more fuel to each thing you put on your list, while it’s not required, you can easily do this by this by including the reason why you want it.
Some format options for writing this include:
- I gratefully welcome “______” because “______”
- I’m grateful for “______” because “______”
- Thank you for “______” because “______”
For Example:
- “I’m grateful for my promotion at work because I really love having an even bigger salary, I enjoy doing more for my company, I appreciate the extra recognition it continues to bring me, and I love the direction my career is going in.”
- “I gratefully welcome a deep and meaningful romantic relationship with someone I love because the feeling of connection I get when I’m in love is so joyful, so exhilarating, and so fulfilling to me. I love cuddling and watching funny movies with my [man/woman/boyfriend/girlfriend/etc ], I love having someone to talk about my day with.
- I love knowing someone is always in my corner and always there for me whenever I need them.
- I love the feeling of being part of a real team with a true partner who really understands me and always wants to be at my side. And I love the feeling of waking up next to someone who truly loves me every single day.”
- “Thank you for the improvement of my health because it’s so wonderful to be alive, it’s so exciting to experience living the fullest life I possibly can, and I appreciate my ease and my comfort more and more every single day, and I’m so happy to have them both.”
#6. Notice Everything in The Above Example is in Present Tense And Affirmative (Positive sense)
Notice a few things about those examples on what do you want in life:
They’re all in the present tense. And they’re all stated “positively.” It’s good to say “I’m with someone I love.”
But it’s bad to say “I’m not alone.” because the Universe doesn’t hear the word “not” and a statement like that is really only reinforcing a vibrational setpoint of being alone.
Finally, none of them are worded in a way that implies they’re not here yet.
You could already have the promotion, be with the love of your life, or enjoy perfect health -- and nothing about those statements would be worded differently. When you write them, you should be saying what you’d actually say if they were already here (because vibrationally, they are). Have yourself in that frame of mind.
Also, the process of writing this down should be a fun and enjoyable experience.
You should view it as if you’re filling out an order form and the company that you’re ordering it from (the Universe) will be delivering it to you right on schedule.
You should NOT be viewing this as an opportunity to complain about all the things you still don’t have, wondering why they never came.
There should be a calm and relaxed mood of expectation and a sense of gratitude that it already exists and is on the way into physical manifestation.
#7. The ONLY Way This Won’t Work ...Is By Not Doing It.
This works. You just need to trust the process here. And you should make this list right now before doing anything else. Don’t hesitate. Don’t wait until you’re done reading this guide. Take time out right now to do this.
Even just a first draft that only takes you ten minutes or so. Just to have something on paper that’s there for you, magnetically pulling in what you want in life with no further delay.
#8. So Did You Make Your List of Getting What Do You Want in Life?
My request is go and make your list of things what you want in life. Don't just keep reading.
Take action if you really want to change your life. There's no point in reading blogs after blogs if you don't take action to change your life.
If you did made your list of things that you want in life, AWESOME.
And if you didn’t yet, please do it now.
That hesitation is simply your ego sneaking in and trying to keep you safe.
And if that’s what’s happening right now, there’s a gift for you in this awareness that nobody else has ever offered you before.
Maybe you like to know what’s involved with each of the techniques before creating your ‘blueprint’.
Whatever the reason, that’s okay -- as long as you’re aware that you’ve consciously chosen to delay this ...and that it’s not too late to take a quick minute or two out right now and make your list.
Even just a short list of 2 or 3 things (if you make it that short, include a quick sentence for each of why you want them).
Remember, you can’t get this list wrong, you’re free to redo it any time you like, and your future self is so grateful to you for taking this key step in attracting your desires.
It’s going to make the manifestation methods so much more effective and easy to use. …and now that I’ve given you the gift of this awareness, whether you actually wrote your list by now or not, we’re not slowing down one bit.
We’re pushing straight ahead and are about to explore what it means to truly create a state of being that pulls the things you want into your physical reality.
