Why “What Do I Want?” Is the Wrong Question

What do I want?” feels intuitive, but it may be the wrong question to ask when shaping a life.

I would like to have a discussion about decision-making through a method I have been using for many years. I could say I’ve used this method my entire life, but that wouldn’t be accurate. There have been entire decades when I discarded it and relied on other parameters instead—parameters aligned with social conditioning, pleasure, and the avoidance of pain.

Last week we ended with a question.

A better decision-making question:

Does this choice support the mission I am here to fulfill?

One of the reasons I adopted this method is that I realized I had no idea how to live in a physical universe or how to make decisions within it. When I tried using conventional decision-making frameworks, the outcomes were often disastrous. (continue reading...)

Podcast Episode - 283 - The Year of the Fire Horse 2026: A Pivot from Light/Dark to Light-Only - Chapter One

There are years that feel ordinary while you are living them. Whispered years. Years that you don’t remember once they are over. Maybe, if something did happen in one of those years, you only understand later that something shifted.

The Year of the Fire Horse is not a whispering year.

In the Chinese zodiac cycle, the Horse is movement, vitality, forward momentum, raw life force. Add Fire to that, and the energy does not stroll. It gallops. It blazes. It exposes.

For people who identify as lightworkers, the embodiment of light, the constructors of the light paradigm, leaders, or stabilizers, 2026 will feel like pressure.

Not because something is wrong, but because intensity demands integrity. And this year will be intense from beginning to end.

Around the world, there are billions who carry light not as a trend, not as a reaction, but as a position of power.

They may look ordinary from the outside. They have families, jobs, responsibilities, daily routines. But internally, they are steady. Trained. Clear. Although up to this day they have been asleep, indulging in light/dark, keeping the docket stamped day in and day out.

We found that most lightworkers are here to assist the shift from light/dark to light-only.

How that happens — how you do that — is the question many people are asking themselves right now.

Western society often teaches us that we are here to have fun, follow our passion, and seek pleasure or consumption.

There are moments when it’s worth stepping out of routine and into something… less defined.
We are gathering in the desert for a skywatch.
Not as spectators.
Not as tourists.
But as participants in a space where observation shifts into experience.

Last week we asked what comes next after discovering our purpose and mission.

At the very least, it begins to change how we see things.

And I would like to remind us here that this quiz is not for those people who are not asking themselves what their purpose for being alive is. It is literally for those who have found our articles and podcasts. For those who have orchestrated a path to shed the veil of illusion and see reality in its true form.

It’s for you.

For the upcoming podcast episodes we will have a series with Todd Standing visiting the Olympic Peninsula
