What do you want? (To Myself)

Simple it may sound and already a non chanting obsessive compulsive but disorderly mantra. Clarity in thinking is removal of conflicts. Mere accumulation of knowledge never solves any confusions. It is not because of the lack of data we are confused but becauseof the lack in finding out what we really want. In a choice based sea, where there is always more than one way to chose and sail, only clarity can be the compass. The confusions also arise having to trade someof our likes for some of our wants. The likes are actually habits which one finds difficult to forego becaue of laziness. Laziness is lack of energy applied not the absence of it. The lack of application is because of the absence of purpose or absence of clarity as to what one wants to do. There can be no resistance unless self imposed in finding out what one really wants to do, how to do it then becomes just details. Conflicts are like flakes of snow during winter, as you keep cleaning it keeps covering up, the right action is keep moving proactively forward by clearing the snow ahead and not stand and wait for snow to stop to make the next move. This proactive action can be applied only when we know, what we want to do. Asking what we truly want is the right question and first step of trying to live consciously and actions we do centered around this will bring about awareness. Much of our lives is based on others ideas , opinions and what the conventional thought pattern is. Asking what we want is not even far as an ambition or goal , it is a sincere step to know thyself to take control of one's life in a direction to acheive inner peace.
