I am sure that you are familiar with the advice of ask and you shall receive. But do you realize that the saying also implies that if you don't ask then you will only get what pot luck has to offer.
A lot of people feel uncomfortable about asking for something for themselves. They say things like "I don't want to sell myself. If it is meant to happen then it will." Guess what? Nothing is "meant" to happen. Either you make it happen or you bob along like a cork lost on the ocean.
Your life is not a predetermined event planned by some higher power. If it was then there would be no point in living. You would have no choice over your life and the whole thing would be dead boring.
Life is an opportunity. You live in a world where virtually anything is possible for you but you have to decide what you want that "anything" to be for you. You are sailing the ocean of life but you have to plot the course.
What is it that you really want to do? What would really make you happy and give you a sense of personal fulfillment? Have the faith that there is something special in life for you and then have the courage to look for it.
You have all the ability you need to do whatever you want to do in this life. There are so many possibilities but in order to see them you have to step outside of normal day to day existence and see all the exciting opportunities around you.
The world is a huge place. You can live where ever you want, yet most people end up living their whole life in the town, city, or area in which they where born. If that sounds like you then how do you know that you are in the right place for you? You have to get out and explore other possibilities and find a place where you can really be yourself and do what ever it is that you really want to do.
How long is it since you put some time aside just to work out what you want out of life? Not what someone else wants for you but what you really want for yourself. Why not sit down today with a piece of paper and a pen and write down your answers to this question; if I could do anything in the world, without having to worry about earning money or pleasing others, what would I choose to do?
Let your head go. Write anything and everything that comes into your mind. Write without judging. Just let it flow and see what comes out. If you do this you may surprise yourself with what you discover.
Accept that you won't necessarily get the best answer for you the first time you do this. The way to find your path is to do this exercise every day for a week, or a fortnight, or even a month if that's what it takes. Each time you do it you will find it easier to step outside of expectations and limitations. Each time you do it will be easier for you to get in touch with the "real you" that has been hiding inside.
Finding the right answers starts with asking the right questions. Once you have thought of something to do with your life that really feels right to you then the next stage is to keep asking the question; how can I make this a reality? If you do this then sooner or later you will get the right answer.
