What You Want vs What You Want Most

Los Angeles is a big city and the possibility of "making it" often seems so remote that it is very easy to lose sight of what you want most. A simple example from my life this evening:

I want to watch The Fountain to escape and be entertained. However, what I want most is to travel around the world making a film with my friend Gabriel.

To do what I want most I have to save money so that I can continue to pay rent in LA. Thus, I need to stop watching The Fountain, take my laptop to Starbucks and get some work done.

Try to evaluate your wants against what you want most at some point. You may be suprised at just how far off-track you can get yourself doing things that seem right.
