Today I was talking to someone and of course somehow the issue of some goal he wanted to achieve came up. And as I have very good experience with the six steps that lead to a desire document of course I couldn’t resist to get my copy of Think and Grow Rich and show him the paragraph about the six steps. And of course he didn’t have an exact amount in his mind (as his goal was about some money goal). And to my amazement he came up with a money amount related to ‘willing to give’, meaning something like ‘willing to invest’. And indeed, when two or more people meet something like Master Mind starts to happen. As these two figures mentioned put my mind straight away into some solutions finding mode even though the ‘willing to give’ amount didn’t make direct sense to me as well as the date he mentioned.
And then I took the liberty of explaining a bit about the power of making decisions and sticking to them by example. I did that before like putting some imaginary goal in one place and some other imaginary goal in another place. And then just ‘go get it’, no matter which goal or, as obviously doesn’t work, starting to doubt and running from one side to the other and never reaching either of the goals.
So quite some experience with just asking someone to mention what he wants and what he is willing to give.
