Great article!

Couldn't agree more.. Deciding what we "want" puts us in the positive mindset of thinking and achieving what we want, rather than the negative mindset of avoiding something which we don't want. Wherever we spend our energies, our mind acts upon them and brings it to reality.. be it something we want or something we don't want.

Much in the lines of "Predictably Irrational" by Dan Ariely, our rationality can only be understood if we are not already swayed by emotions to "free", or "arousal", or a heightened state of "fear"or "greed".

And yes, that connects to the next topic you have mentioned -- How do we know something if we haven't tried? :)

Have upvoted and followed! Looking forward to more!
