Keep Asking Yourself—What Do I Really Want?
In a world full of noise, expectations, and endless distractions, it’s easy to forget what you truly want. It’s easy to be pulled by what others chase, confuse success with what looks impressive, or drift into paths that were never yours to walk.
That’s why you must return—again and again—to a simple, honest question:
What do I want?
Not what sounds good.
Not what impresses others.
It's not what feels easiest in the moment.
What do I, in my clearest, most honest self, truly want from this life?
This question is your anchor. Without it, you are at the mercy of every trend, every opinion, every passing fear. With it, you can live deliberately. You can endure hardship with meaning. You can choose your battles wisely.
But it’s not a question you ask once and forget. You must keep asking it daily because life will try to make you forget. It will offer shortcuts, temptations, and comforts. It will test how badly you want what you say you do.
So check in with yourself often. Sharpen your vision.
The more precise you are about what you truly want, the harder it will be for anything or anyone to deceive you or divide you from your path.
