I love New Year's resolutions because I like to have goals to reach for, and the New Year always seems like a good time to assess what is going well and what I want more or less of. But I really like the sage advice from the father in this story. What is the point of a goal if your life energy is not being spent on what makes you happy?
People refer to what he's talking about as "intention" and when the things that you want come to pass, it is called "manifesting." These are the principles behind the book The Secret. I read it years ago and I sometimes put it into practice, and it does work!
Great story, @bruno-kema.
Hmm... 'Intention' and 'Manifesting', are interesting terms. I definitely didn't think that far.
Thank you for the book suggestion, I'll try to get it even if it's the digital version.
I'm glad you enjoyed the story.
