THE I WISH SYNDROME

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with people first...then business Ran Right Realty 636943 licensed to thrill

Fascinating little subject matter. What are we really saying? Are we wanting something and this is the positive attitude to help it along? Or, is it a regret statement when looking back over the shoulder at the parts we played and didn't play? If one is to truly wish, where do we begin?

HEALTHY WISHING

Because it has been proven that it is done to us as we believe and that a faith driven belief can move mountains and much less too, we do have the ability to WISH much into existence.  So, right after the wishing moment, the set-up of the path for the wish to travel toward you kicks in so that it can unfold and begin to serve you. Many are not aware and move on before the wish arrives

BE REALISTIC

Make it a meaningful wish as many impostor wishes clog the high-ways and bi-ways of the wish world. Unselfish wishes travel differently than lets say wishes that are all about the wishing persons pleasures. I wish really means that you are alive and anything is possible statement. It doesnt mean short-cut!

WATCH THIS ONE

Be weary on the material wishes. They can get into you and weigh you down making you wonder if you should have wished for this to begin with. Whatever you get into has the rights to get into you too. Also, consider that wishes as in "best wishes"...really are potential events that are in waiting. Come hither!

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

In other words, the power we possess as humans, full of talents, skills and opportunities which are all contained in a mobile, versatile body machine should not be taken for granted as we can have just about anything we set our hearts upon. Wishing gives us the awareness of the subject matter to be...

WISH EXAMPLES TO PONDER:

  • Wishing you were rich and well off we all know. How about wishing to happy without wanting?
  • Wishing for longer or a better quality of life. How about wishing for wisdom to suck marrow instead
  • Wishing to travel and adventure. How about the wonder and awe right under your own nose
  • Wishing to do something over. How about wishing for the best possible outcome for you right now

THE MONKEYS PAW

A tale of be careful what you wish for well told. Anyone who has the Monkey's Paw can get three wishes, but they all come with a catch...an unseen one. You wish for wealth and it is granted but then you find you can't spend it because your assets get frozen is an example. Or, you get the wish for wealth and then someone else wishes for your address so they can rob and kill you and get their wish for wealth. The Monkeys Paw is a shortcut and a substitute for real life....Pass on this beguiling dynamic

ALADDIN AND THE MAGIC LAMP WISHES

Here, you do get without any tricks what you do wish for. The challenge here is that if you cannot get it done in three wishes, oh well. Everyone starts with the money wish right off which allows for a lot of gathering of the goodies. Others wish for power so as to control outcomes thus prospering guaranteed. Wishing for world peace is great as long as everyone still has a desire to want to get along. Wishing is work if it is limited to how many wishes. The famous "I wish for more wishes" still causes pondering

CAUSE AND EFFECT

We don't know the cause and effect of wishing but we do know what happens in real life don't we? We wonder about things we could have done better but didn't, or choices that we wished we did or did not make but the truth of it all is that life cannot be planned out and wishes don't have that power

I WISH I DIDN'T HAVE TO WISH

Your wishing can be tricky and not so easy to understand. Wouldn't the one that didn't have to wish be the best wish to make of all? Think about this. I wish that everyone got their wish doesn't work either. I will end on a bit of humor....

I WISH YOU WOULD LAUGH

An elderly woman who turned 92 and was celebrating her birthday of which her husband of many years was attending was told to make a wish before she blew out the candle on her cake. She paused, look around the room, smiled and then wished. A second later....

Her husband disappeared!

Wishing equates to wanting which results from a sense of lacking.  Focusing on what you lack (wish for) is counter productive in my world.  Focusing on gratitude for what IS creates more more opportunity to be grateful.  What you focus on is what you create more of.
