What Do You Want?



It’s a simple question, yet a powerful one. Take a moment to reflect on your life. How old are you today? How long might you live? None of us knows the exact expiration date. Still, we can examine family history and life expectancy to get a general idea, assuming there are no unexpected events that may alter the picture. Now consider the gap between where you are today and that possible endpoint. What will you do with that time?

 

Too often, we drift through life without ever answering this question. We stay busy, take care of our responsibilities, and manage the day-to-day tasks. However, without identifying what we truly want and what truly matters, we risk ending up in places we never intended. If you don’t set your direction, life will choose one for you.

 

This question matters in every area of life: your work, your health, your relationships, your impact. Do you want to lead a team? Start a business? Heal a relationship? Travel more? Cultivate peace within yourself? What you want may take many forms, and the more you identify those desires, the richer your life becomes.

 

Some things on my list may never happen, but they stay there because they remind me of what matters. If you haven’t named what you want, how will you know you’re getting closer to it?

 

Setting your sights on something meaningful doesn’t mean locking yourself into rigid goals; it means living with intention. It means defining success on your terms. When you know what you want, your decisions become more transparent and more informed. Your time becomes more precious. Your “yes” has a purpose, and your “no” carries confidence.

 

I’ve learned that naming what I want isn’t selfish, it’s responsible. It helps me live deliberately, not just reactively. It creates a filter for what belongs in my life and what doesn’t.

 

So, I’ll ask again: What do you want?

 

Write it down. Say it aloud. Revisit it often.

 

And watch for the blind spots.
