Time for me to start turning that thinking around, now that most of what I DON'T want has been banished from my life. Thanks, for this, Free Owl. Time for me to start looking forward.
WHat we don't want can be a normal and natural lens through which to look at what we do want.

It's a subtle but important difference between getting 'stuck' on the "I don't want" and moving past that into "I clearly know I don't want __X___, which helps me see that what I DO want is __Y____".
