Big life desires, where do they come from?

Sometimes they come out of nowhere. One great method is to go out into the world and try new things. That's how a lot of my ambitions came to be.

 

Adversity. Every person i've looked up to has this one common experience. Or call it a breakthrough. Coupled with a sense of urgency, as if your life depended on it.

 

That was interesting

 

At times, i'd say it comes from current or potential regret. That just ties right back into it. Awesome to think about.

 

Most of our processing is "under the hood" our awareness is given only what it needs to solve the problem at hand.
Allot of the things we do conflict with what we say we would do, because we just do not know ourselves that well.
But it is not that hard to start listening, you just have to shut up and feel, and when you speak express honestly what you feel, not what you think should be said.

Just ask why you started this thread - There is no rational answer, you just felt like it.
