100 Desires | The Life I’m Available For

There is something beautiful about admitting exactly what you want without immediately asking yourself whether you’re being realistic.

For once, I don’t want to negotiate with my desires.

I don’t want to make them smaller because they sound expensive. I don’t want to dilute them because someone else might think they’re too ambitious. I don’t want to turn every dream into a five-year plan before I allow myself to enjoy the thought of having it.

I simply want to want.

I want a beautiful life.

I want money.

I want freedom.

I want a thriving business and several streams of income.

I want a peaceful home, a beautiful garden, a successful career of my own making, a comfortable life for my son, beautiful clothes, good food, travel, creativity, health, experiences, and enough financial abundance that I can make decisions because I want to—not because I’m calculating whether I can afford not to.

I want to build.

I want to learn.

I want to travel.

I want to create.

I want to be ridiculously good at the things I enjoy.

I want to make money from my ideas.

I want to have more than enough.

And I don’t think I need to apologize for any of that.

Some of these desires are practical. Some are luxurious. Some are deeply personal. Some might seem completely random a year from now.

That’s the point.

These aren’t tasks.

They’re not resolutions.

They’re not a business strategy.

They’re not promises about what I must accomplish.

They are simply a snapshot of the woman I am today and the life she desires.

So I’m writing them down.

I’m letting myself imagine the full version.

And then I’m leaving them here.

17 August 2026.

I’ll come back one year from now and see what happened.

Not to judge myself.

Not to calculate how much I “failed” to achieve.

But to meet the woman who wrote these words and see what became of her desires.

Maybe some will have happened exactly as imagined.

Maybe some will have arrived in completely different forms.

Maybe some will be so normal by then that I won’t remember how badly I wanted them.

And maybe I’ll read a few and laugh because I was still thinking too small.

I like that possibility.

So here they are.

The Desire Beneath All the Desires

Looking at these together, I don’t think the deepest desire here is simply money.

It’s expansion.

I want a bigger life.

A life where my income is bigger than my obligations.

Where my home is bigger than my stress.

Where my experiences are bigger than my routines.

Where my business is bigger than survival.

Where my skills are bigger than what I currently know.

Where my son’s childhood is bigger than the limitations I grew up around.

Where I can look at something beautiful and simply buy it because I love it.

Where I can wake up and decide:

“I want to go somewhere.”

And go.

“I want to learn this.”

And learn it.

“I want to build this.”

And build it.

“I want to rest.”

And rest.

“I want to give.”

And give.

“I want to say no.”

And say no.

Not because I am trying to escape poverty.

Not because I am trying to prove anything.

But because I have built a life with enough room for choice.

That’s what abundance means to me.

Not having the most.

Having enough and more.

Enough money.

Enough time.

Enough space.

Enough health.

Enough freedom.

Enough love.

Enough opportunity.

Enough security to be generous.

Enough confidence to be visible.

Enough stability to take risks.

Enough money that a slow month is simply a slow month—not a threat to my entire life.

Enough success that I can stop treating every opportunity as if it is the last one I’ll ever receive.

Enough freedom to choose my life instead of constantly reacting to it.

And perhaps the most beautiful part is that I don’t need to know exactly how all of this happens yet.

I just need to know that this is what I desire.

So I’m writing it down.

I’m allowing myself to want all of it.

The money.

The house.

The land.

The business.

The plane tickets.

The beautiful clothes.

The perfumes.

The skills.

The garden.

The savings.

The machines.

The clients.

The freedom.

The experiences.

The peaceful mornings.

The successful launches.

The full bank account.

The beautiful cakes.

The adventures with my son.

The life that feels expansive instead of cramped.

I don’t know which desire will arrive first.

I don’t know which one will surprise me.

I don’t know which one I’ll outgrow.

I don’t know which one will turn out to be far smaller than what life eventually gives me.

And I don’t need to know.

Today, I simply choose to desire.

17 August 2026.

One hundred desires.

One year.

Let’s see.
