Deepest desires

What do you desire for your life, your family, your business, your community, your world? Why do you desire these things? What are you willing to do in order to make them a reality? When will you begin?

Are your days, your moments, your thoughts and your actions focused and effective, or do you let them pass by with little to show for them? You are here and now in the great opportunity that is your life. It can be whatever you decide it will be, and you’re the one who can make that happen.

Are you excited about waking up every morning and getting yourself going? Are you moving steadily and energetically toward your most treasured desires? If not, why not? If not now, when?

What do you really, truly want from life and why? You can have it. You can make it happen. In so doing, in following those desires, you’ll bring treasures to the world that no one else could have ever created. This life, this world, this day is yours to make into something great, and your most deeply held desires will lead the way.

— Ralph Marston
