Wow, it seems I put myself some tasks. And yes, I still believe virtually anything can be done and you (and I) can make virtually any dream come true. But at the moment everything just seems work, work, work. And somehow I know this is just how it works, this is how to get there, step by step, one thing at the time, no matter how slow it seems to go. Although that reminds me that many things in my life also just ‘came to me’. Many things I wanted or wished for or had somewhere in my mind were suddenly just there, without me even realized that i ever really wanted it or something.

One sample is a car I once had. It was even quite some time after I acquired it that I realized that during childhood i had kind of dreamed of this kind of car. When I was a child I was completely crazy about cars, like reading car magazines and books and i was also subscribed to a weekly magazine. One weekly item in the magazine was a weekly car test report and one week the report was about a Saab 900 Turbo (or at least a Saab Turbo). The car was way beyond I could ever imagine for my dad to have, let alone me. Anyhow, years and years later I realized I drove in one, and that I owned it. So indeed, even your wildest dreams can come true, although there was one issue with the car. It was not the shiny brand new car from the test report, but a ten year old car that was at the end of its lifetime. So be careful what you wish for, but don’t forget that I really enjoyed the car and that I was amazed that I not only drove one, but even owned it.

And this is not the only thing that happened to me, that kind of ‘came to me’. Many of the things I had in mind when I was a boy or teenager I did and got in my life, also many things that appeared completely impossible.

So yes, I guess this post even inspires me now as I know that nature or the Universe or Infinite Intelligence or God or whatever name you have for the ‘higher power’ often, or maybe even always, just gives you what you want,although sometimes not in exactly the way you had imagined it.

So whenever you are tired or down or whatever, just know that despite of all the principles of success it is not only those principles, that to me often sound like hard work, but that often things also just ‘come to you’, without direct effort or action.

Or as I started with this post like feeling of needing all kinds of things, that those things might just be there already or on the way.
