    About this ebook

    Do you know what you want? I make a case in this book that we all have what we want. i gasp at the magnificence of space, however i realize that my conciousness, knowledge & wisdom are more magnificent. this wriitng investigates the motivational value of thanking me for my wants. The chemistry & biology that helps me have conscious wants is more sigificant than the smoke gass and fire of space.

    When we know what we want and not just wish that we wanted it, wisdom can use knowledge to accomplish our wants. Knowledge is power. Wisdom energizes the power. Wisdom is dead unless used. Wisdom is like a muscle, the more it is used the stronger it gets. When wisdom is ignored it atrophies like an unused muscle. Ken worked for 20 years as a realtor and land developer. At the age of 50 he went back to school and graduated with a degree in sociology from the University of Utah. After graduation, Ken was asked to get involved with ranlife home loans/real estate as a consultant. This association led him back to the front lines as a mortgage loan officer where he has been involved with directing life principles and life wants discussions. It was here where he found encouragement to capsulize in a book his challenge to all of us to realize how great we already are and appreciate what we already have. He proves in this book how when you know what you want, and not just wish that you wanted it, from some reservoir of strength you will create opportunities that enable you to achieve what you want. Do you know what you want?

      PROLOGUE

      I suppose there are those who have the lottery light come on which turns their life to a different course almost immediately. I was not one of those. My confidence and ability has come in small chunks. As I become aware of how great each small improvement is, the next move becomes easier and more exciting. I used to appear to most of the world to be on top of my game and I could have easily done more misery causing actions without most people knowing. My insistence on doing benefit actions when I could do benefit actions was immensely more productive than I realized. My insistence to do benefit actions during breaks of chaos in my life was a pre-programming that gave me benefits without always thinking about what I was doing. The same was true of actions that caused me to fail. Doing nothing, or failing to plan success actions, was equivalent to action that caused failure. When I am in a stagnant state, nothing happens.

      When I know what I want instead of just wishing that I wanted it, Poof, it shockingly appears.

      My lottery light flickers on as I buy my lottery tickets a chunk at a time.

      INTRODUCTION

      Technology occupies today’s center stage. All aspects of social change are touched by the immense volume of knowledge available to each of us. The cameras in the Hubble telescope were recently displaying vistas deep into space. As I watched, it occurred to me that even though I was less than a speck of dust compared to the immenseness of Universes being explored, I was of infinite more significance than smoke, gas and fire. Inner space is as mind boggling as is outer space. If I stand before a wall and keep stepping one half the distances to the wall, I will never reach the wall. The conscious intelligence that comprises our individual existence is as immense and unexplored as the unknown territories of inner or outer space.

      Years ago I was driving my son to an appointment when he asked me one of those ethereal oneness of the universe type questions whose content I don’t remember. But when I responded that I preferred to live my life based on what I Do understand, he said that’s good dad. He doesn’t remember the conservation, but I do, and I have never forgotten my answer. When I do well the things I CAN do and appreciate the things I DO have, I am developing the ability to get the most out of what I DO understand.

      If the reader captures from this book that we are intelligences, not just canisters of knowledge, then I have been perhaps a catalyst of a further flow of ideas and discoveries which can put us in control of our feelings and destinies.
