I always hear people say they want something and then right after that they say something along the lines of, "but I can't have it" or "I can't afford that". When people think this way it sort of makes me sad inside. I personally believe that what is holding someone back from doing the things that they want to do is withheld in the back of their mind. We always have the opportunity to do the things we want to do, but we just tend to ignore it because we don't believe it actually exists. This is where the thought process of individuals should change. Now, I'm not saying be reckless in your decisions, although I am saying that it never hurts to attempt to do all the things you want to do.
I'm sort of what people call instinctive and impulsive. When I get interested in doing something, I feel the immediate need to do it. Although, my instinctive personality helps me to evaluate the idea and decide whether I want to pursue this impulse right away or if I want to pursue it, say in a couple weeks or months, when it may be better for me money wise or maybe even time wise. Now this type of impulse control can sometimes be hard to master and is very rare in many cases. So let me help you out by giving you some pointers to help engulf those impulses and set out to kill your bucket list or your dreams!
Recommended for you
1. Write down the impulse or activity in a notebook or even on a piece of paper.
This will help you keep track of everything you feel the need to do. It's sort of like a bucket list, but it's the kind you make based on your impulsive wants not on your socialized wants.
2. Evaluate the costs.
See if you are able to pay for that activity or event at the moment. It might be something that you have to save for.
3. If it's a once in a lifetime opportunity, then go for it!
Sometimes they're those things that you only get the opportunity to do once.
4. Make sure you capture the event.
I mean I know I always want to capture every event that I do in my life, so I recommend the same to you. You may need proof when you tell the story to family and friends!
Don't be afraid to get out there and go after things in life!
