Wishes and desires

When we think of wishes, we generally think of an act that is taken when we blow out the candles of a birthday cake. Looking back at what I wished for in those moments, there wasn't much emotion behind it. It was more of a fleeting thought. Had it been more than that, it probably would have registered permanently with me and I would have been elated when it materialized. I also didn't create a plan that would bring it into my reality. A desire carries with it a stronger emotional component and tends to be more persistent. My desire to visit all seven continents before a specific age has transformed into plans and actions that allowed me to achieve that goal. With my desires come acceptance that I need to do my part. It may be addressing self-imposed obstacles that keep the desire from manifesting, not giving in to discouragement when it doesn't happen as quickly as I would like it to, or infusing it with energy on a daily basis by visualizing it in my life. I now look for examples of how my desires are showing up in physical form for me. The list of those examples goes on and on. What is a wish that you need to transform into a desire and take the necessary steps for it to enter into your reality?
