Wanting, Knowing, & Self Journey

“Pressure is a privilege. It’s not here to break you; it’s here to shape you.”

🧠”The Knowing doesn’t fight for control—it earns it through purpose.”

👂”The Wanting wants now, but the Knowing sees forever.”

You’ve probably noticed moments in your life where two voices seem to compete in your mind: one that drives you toward instant gratification👂, and another that seems to quietly hold the long-term vision.🧭

🔀Through this course, you will learn actionable techniques to strengthen your Knowing, align your Wanting, and embrace a purpose greater than yourself.

These voices are the interplay of the Wanting—your right brain, the creative, impulsive, desire-driven part of you🎨💥—and the Knowing—your left brain, the logical, future-oriented, grounded side🧱🌌. This course is here to guide you toward balance, to show you how these parts of you are not in opposition but complementary.

“Left brain listens; right brain feels. Together, they create.”

“Every challenge is a mirror. It shows you how far you’ve come and how much farther you can go.”

🌀What is the Wanting?

The Wanting is the part of you that craves immediacy. It is the right side of the brain and It is fueled by emotion, imagery, and desire⚡. When overactive, it can lead you to impulsive decisions or overwhelm you with distractions.🧠➡️🎭

“The Wanting craves the moment. The Knowing builds the legacy.”

🌐What is the Knowing?

The Knowing is the steady force that sees the big picture🧠➡️📐. It’s the left side of the brain, the logical, future-focused mind, and is deeply attuned to purpose. While it is quieter, its power lies in its ability to direct your life with intention.🗺️

🐺The Wolves Within

I like to look at these two sides as wolves in our mind. Which one will survive if one leads to ultimate purpose and one leads to distraction?

The answer is, of course, the one you feed🧠.

“Growth doesn’t just happen—it’s carved out of every decision you make.”

Exercise: Close your right eye for sixty seconds during a moment of mental chaos. Observe how clarity begins to emerge as the Knowing, your left brain, takes the lead.🧘‍♂️

“If life’s a dance, the Wanting is the beat🥁, but the Knowing is the choreography. Master both, and the stage is yours.”🩰

“You’re not just rewriting your story; you’re teaching others how to write theirs.”

🎯The Interplay of Knowing and Wanting: Unlocking Your Inner Balance

✍️Reflection: Write down a time when the Knowing, left brain, has guided you successfully. What did it feel like? How can you invite that voice more often into your daily life?

“You don’t have to fight the storm. Sometimes you just need to learn how to dance in the rain.”

“Balance isn’t about quieting one side. It’s about letting the symphony play.”

“You’re the architect of your mind🏗️. Every thought is a brick, and every decision is a beam.”

“Your left brain builds the bridge🌉; your right brain dreams of what’s on the other side🌅.”

“Remember: You don’t just change the world by being you—you inspire the world to find their own Knowing too.”🤝

The Relationship Between the Two

The Wanting wants to be heard, while the Knowing needs space to guide👂. When aligned, they become an unstoppable force for growth🧭. This relationship doesn’t need to be a battle—it’s a partnership waiting to be nurtured.🚀

🎯Challenge: Identify one decision today where your Knowing and Wanting can collaborate. For instance, if your Wanting desires instant gratification, ask your Knowing what the healthiest option is for this🍓.

🔑Strengthening the Knowing

🌟The Power of Purpose

“When the Knowing leads and the Wanting follows, that’s when the magic happens.”

Your Knowing thrives when it has a guiding star—a purpose greater than yourself. By identifying what matters most to you, you provide the Knowing with the clarity and energy to stay in charge.

✅Action: Write down three goals that align with your long-term purpose. Every day, take one small step toward one of these goals.🪜

“Don’t let the noise outside drown out the quiet truth inside you. That’s where your power lives.”

🧘The Practice of Deliberate Stillness

When your Wanting feels loud, deliberately quiet your mind. Cover your right eye for a few minutes, focus on your breath, and let your Knowing come forward.

🗣️Activity: Practice deliberate stillness every morning. Set a timer for five minutes, and start your day by letting your Knowing set your intention.🧠

Speaking with Affirmations

The words you use with yourself matter. Speak directly to your Knowing and your Wanting to bring balance.

Mantra: Repeat to yourself, “I know my purpose. I honor my desires, but I lead with wisdom.”

🎨Working with the Wanting

🔥Harnessing the Creative Energy of the Wanting

The Wanting isn’t your enemy—it’s a source of creative power. When channeled correctly, it gives life to your ideas and makes you unstoppable.💥

✅Exercise: Pick a project you’ve been putting off. Give your Wanting a task: “Create three ways to make this project exciting.” Then let your Knowing refine those ideas into action steps.

🛑Reining in Impulses

Impulsivity is the Wanting in overdrive. The trick is to give it guidance without shutting it down entirely.

✅Technique: When you feel impulsive, pause. Ask yourself: “What does my Knowing think about this?” Write down your answer📝 before taking any action.

🔗Aligning the Wanting and the Knowing

When these forces are in harmony, you become a force of nature. The Wanting fuels your dreams, and the Knowing builds the path to get there.🌪️💡

✅Activity: Create a visualization of your ideal future👁️. Close your eyes and imagine it in full detail. Then, ask your Knowing what the first step toward that vision should be.

🏛️The Power of Purpose and Legacy

🌍Finding Your Greater Purpose

Purpose doesn’t have to be grand to be powerful. It just has to be authentic to you.

✅Reflection: Ask yourself, “What impact do I want to leave on the world?” Spend ten minutes writing your answer without judgment or overthinking.🖋️

🧱Building a Legacy Beyond Yourself

✅Your Knowing thrives when it sees a bigger picture. It wants to build something lasting.

Action: Identify one area in your life—relationships, work, creativity—where you want to create a lasting impact. Commit to one habit that supports this goal every day.🌳

🧘‍♀️Living with Intentional Alignment

Balance is not a destination; it’s a daily practice. By listening to your Knowing and honoring your Wanting, you can live intentionally every day.✅

Challenge: At the end of each day, ask yourself: “Did my actions today reflect my purpose?” If not, plan one action for tomorrow that will.🔁

🚪Your Journey to Balance and Beyond

The interplay between the Knowing and the Wanting is not just about balance – it’s about unleashing the full potential of who you are🧠. By learning to quiet the noise, listen to your inner wisdom, and align your actions with your greater purpose, you will transform not just your own life but the world around you.

This is where your journey begins. The Knowing and the Wanting are waiting to guide you. Will you let them lead you to your greatest self?
