Find The Sponsoring Emotional Desire
It is very useful to figure out what the sponsoring emotional desire is behind your wanting. Wanting comes in layers. For example, let's say you want a car. Here is the questioning process you might go through.

You want a car. Why? To be able to drive yourself around town. Why? So you don't have to depend on others. Why? Because you like the way it feels to be independent. Why? Because it means you're freer to come and go as you wish. Why? You want to feel in control of your life. Why do you want a car? You want to feel in control and experience a feeling of freedom.

For everything we desire of a material or situation sense, there is an underlying emotional state we want to experience from it. Figure out what the bottom line emotional desire is to your material or situational wants.

It's beneficial to know the underlying desire of your wants because many of us can get stuck on fulfilling our desires in only one way. Take for example the desire to own a car talked about above. What if it were not possible for you to get a drivers license because of some physical limitation? Does this mean you will never experience the feeling of freedom or control? No, of course not, there are many ways you could accomplish your ultimate goal of feeling free and in control.

When you understand what the emotional desire is that's driving the material want, you then have options on how to fulfill that want. There are more ways then one to achieve what you ultimately want to experience.

Make Your Vision Clear
In 1993 I wanting a new home. I had a very vague idea of what it was I wanted. I knew I wanted it to be spacious and have a view, but that was about it. For the next three years I continually added specifics to my dream house. Every time I was out and saw something I liked, it was added to the picture in my mind's eye.

I created a collage of pictures torn out of magazines of homes that had certain qualities that attracted me. Then I drew a floor plan. My vision was becoming clearer and clearer. The core components were: spaciousness, high ceilings, fine workmanship, beautiful view of water, lots of windows and light, surrounded by trees, and a big porch in the back for enjoying the view.

I ran this image through my mind quite often. Although some of the specifics were missing, the way the house felt was very specific. I could feel what it was like to be in that house. I felt open, inspired, warm, free, and appreciative of the beauty that surrounded me. I had identified the sponsoring emotional desire I wanted to feel when in that house. I could feel the openness, the warmth, the freedom, the inspiration. When I visualized the home, I had the feelings as if I was already there.

In 1996 we decided to move closer to the ocean and sun. Because we were moving to a different state, we only had two weekends to find a home. Our real-estate person showed us many homes, none of which did anything for us. We decided to drive along the coastline and look for ourselves. As we turned a corner I spotted a house with a for sale sign. We stopped to take a look.

The instant I walked around to the back of the house, I knew we had found our new home. All the feelings I had been having when I visualized my new home came upon me the instant I saw the back porch, yard and view. I knew immediately that this was it. There was the view of the water, there was the big porch, there were all the windows, there were the trees, almost exactly how I had been invisioning it. It was amazing.
