Dunkin' Donuts & The Universe

The other day I stopped in to the local Dunkin' Donuts coffee shop to get a cup of coffee.  There was a Lady in front of me in line who was ordering donuts.  She initially ordered 2 chocolate covered Boston creme donuts, and as soon as the Clerk at the store put them in the box, she changed her mind and said that she wanted 2 jelly donuts instead.  The Clerk then put the 2 Boston cremes back on the shelf and put the 2 jelly donuts in the box.  Again the Lady changed here mind, and said that she wanted a blueberry cake donut, and a plane glazed donut instead.  The Clerk at the counter was amazingly patient, and fulfilled the customer's request.  This went on for another two more rounds, and I have no idea what she ended up with as far as donuts go.

I realized that this was the perfect analogy as to why many people are not living the life of their dreams.  Most people never truly decide what it is that they want in life, or should I say what kind of "donut" they want to have.  If you do not DECIDE what it is that you truly want, simply put you won't get it.  The Universe cannot give you what you want if your are constantly changing your mind.  Instead you will end up feeling "stuck", as many people feel their lives are.

Getting "unstuck" begins with DECIDING what it is that you truly want, and then taking action to begin moving in the direction of your goals.  Once you do this, your life will become "unstuck", and you can have the "donut" you want!!
