If you know more or less what it is that you want in life, you need to address the reality of your situation and look at what stands in your way of achieving what you want. Let’s call these things which stand in your way of attaining your desires obstructions.
There are different kinds of obstructions – some are simply blocks that you can go over or go around while others are more tricky, they might seem like monsters which challenge the hero (You) and not let the hero pass. You must be equipped with the weapons you need to defeat these monsters, dissolve these blocks or jump over these obstacles. Of course, the weapons are conceptual, intangible weapons, not real ones. And your weapons are made of powerful questions.
In order to begin, you really need your expressive medium ready – the best is a journal and a pen. You can also use a favourite word processing program on your computer or even a voice to text software. With your expressive medium at your disposal, address the following 1 simple question – “What is now standing in my way of attaining my desires?” List everything you can conceive of that is hindering you from going after your intended objectives.
Is it a person? A colleague? A superior? A family member? An authority figure? A friend?
Is it a circumstance? Your debt? Your credit rating? Your income level? Restrictive laws?
Could it also be your own personal shortcomings? Your health? Your weight? Your stamina? Your lack of self- confidence? Your phobia of public speaking?
Or is it your belief systems? Your models of the world? Your belief that “all men are jerks” or “all women are tricksters”? Your belief that a certain group of people are just bent on sucking your money dry? Or that humanity in general is a cynical bunch of selfish animals?
List down everything that you can think of that can prevent you from realising your goals in any way. Make this list as long as possible. The more things you list out, the better. Then think of ways to overcome these obstructions, and what are the best ways forward to realise your success completely.
