Subject: What do you want, [firstname]?

Hi [firstname],

In order to transform your life for the better, you've got to know what you REALLY want, and sometimes people have a problem identifying this.

After all, if you don't know what you want, how will you know when you've got it?

In life things are rarely cut and dried, and solutions to problems sometimes aren't that obvious.

A good way of finding out what you really want is to use the “5 whys” technique. The 5 whys technique is where you ask yourself “why is this?” five times in a row.  

For example, let's say you want to lose weight but are finding it impossible.

Why?

Because you're comfort eating.

Why?

Because you and your spouse are fighting all the time.

Why?

Because she/he doesn't like where you live.

Why do you live there?

Because we can't afford to move to a better neighborhood.

Why is that?

Because you keep getting passed over for promotion at work and don't make enough money.

See what I mean?

The main problem isn't being overweight.  The problem is you're not making enough money. Because you're not making enough money you can't move to a better neighborhood and make your spouse happy – which is what you REALLY want.

The next step is to make a plan of HOW you can get what you want.  Start with the solution and work back to now.  This way you can proceed with confidence because you KNOW your plan will work.  You'll also know if your plan WON'T work ahead of time – before you invest time, effort and money in it – in which case you can simply draw up a new plan.

This thing is… 

When you're confident of success, you'll start thinking positively because you KNOW you're going to be successful.  The converse is also true. 

Warmly,

[Your Name]
