What's your dominant aspiration?

We will continue to explore the importance of self-awareness we started last week.

James Allen said "You'll become as small as your controlling desire; or as great as your dominant aspiration".

Question(s) for this week:

• Are you aware what is your dominant aspiration/dream/goal? Are you very specific? Have you written it down? What action(s) have you taken in the last day/week/month/year that is pushing you towards your dominant goal. 

Have a great week ahead!

PS: James Allen, who lived in early 1900s, is known as father of modern self-help authors and literature. His seminal work As a Man Thinketh is widely regarded as one of the most significant and early books that taught the world the importance of "thoughts" on us and how we can change our thoughts and change our destiny. I strongly recommend to read it (it is only about 60 pages, free copies available on the net). The principles outlined there are timeless and equally applicable to men and women (note that he lived in an era, where writings were not gender-neutral). Let the title do not put you off.

PPS: Let me copy-paste the the entire para from which I took the above quote from the chapter titles Vision and Ideals:

And you, too, youthful reader, will realize the Vision (not the idle wish) of your heart, be it base or beautiful, or a mixture of both, for you will always gravitate toward that which you, secretly, most love. Into your hands will be placed the exact results of your own thoughts; you will receive that which you earn; no more, no less. Whatever your present environment may be, you will fall, remain, or rise with your thoughts, your Vision, your Ideal. You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration.
