Acknowledging what I want

Recognition and acknowledgment are similar concepts. For my purposes, however, acknowledgment is a means of finally accepting something you know is there, something you already recognized and decided to stop ignoring.

Realize that what you want may require making tough choices. Acknowledgment of what you want, reinforces this decision. The importance, to me, of going through with this step lies on the fact that sometimes, either willingly or not, we forget about things we're aware of as beneficial. We stop paying attention, and eventually they become a rare memory to us.

I had ideas for a lot of things, I knew they were good, and I wanted to follow up. Sadly, I didn't acknowledge the fact that they are/were something worth pursuing. I knew it was a good thing, I am able to recognize that. However, my lack of motivation, or the fact I did not pursue these ideas, can be (or is) linked to not acknowledging any of them as important. Not confirming that they were/are going to make an improvement in my life, that they occurred to me because of dissatisfaction about a particular aspect, made me forget about them.

Acknowledgement is a reinforcement of your goal. If you truly want to pursue something in your life, it will come up as an idea to you (recognizing it), then you have to question it to know whether you really want to pursue this change and the consequences that come with it (acknowledging it).

Change is a worm hole that's on the bottom of a bluff. Ask yourself if you have courage to jump into it.
