"You miss every shot you don't take!"

I believe we recieve everything proper that we ask for.

IF you want something a lot you will either be prone to seeing opportunities for receiving such wanted things or otherwise you are letting yourself focus on the obstacles between you and what you want.

IF obstacles are able to be veiwed as opportunities to do something new, challenge yourself, as a chance to learn THEN every interaction can be exciting or at least appreciated. Find yourself wanting to at least learn something from every present "now" and gratitude for all may follow.

Our wants are the passions we get excited about, the pleasures we enjoy, what turns us on and intrigues our interests therefore attracting us to desire such wants.

Just like habitual defense mechanisms can be falliciously taken as instincts, wants too can be confused with fear based cravings like addictions or emotional eating, retail theropy, or even simply crutches we want around to lean on for support, security comfort or protection. Love yourself enough to be honest with yourself regarding the origin of your desires. Respect yourself, and this precious life you've been blessed with right "now", to do what your true instincts know is right for you. You will always have to live with yourself so start respecting this opportunity you've been given by choosing to attract only that which is healthy, good and prosperous for all that is in existence right "now" in every present instant.

We are all a team. As teammates we must each hold ourselves accountable to participate at our highest potential. May the honest guidance of our divine instincts lead as our coach, giving us the tools and direction to excell victoriously in harmonay in this game we call Life.

Thank you for your efforts. Your pleasure is pleasing to me. Together, through effort, open communicstion and honesty we're getting better each day. Life's made to be played, please join in the fun..

One of my favorite writers Jack Canfield shows us in his book, "The Success Principles", a technique he calls 'Ready, Fire, Aim!'. The essence of his theory is that most people spend the majority of their time getting ready and aiming without ever getting up the courage or confidence to ever actually fire. He advises to just start shooting and you will learn through trial and error instead of getting ready, aiming and never actuslly getting around to shooting Also, with such an extensive preparation, even if you do end up shooting you may become too discouraged to go again if you happen to miss. Jack also reminds us in every time we miss the target, we are in fact still gaining the experience of how it feels to shoot which then gives us a gage for necessary adjustments to be made in order to hone precision of our aim. The person who shoots more often has a higher probability of scoring. My basketball coach Gabe Adami used to tell us, "you miss every shot you don't take!" and clearly that stands true for anything we want in life.

Find what your passionate about having in your life and go for it! Every shot is successful as long as you learn from it. So IF you miss THE. Just adjust and go again until you score.
