The Desire Engine is a way of thinking about what pulls us through life—a cycle of thought, choice, action, and evaluation that literally moves us forward, day-to-day.
Used as a self-coaching model, the Desire Engine can help us look deeply at our choices in any given moment, and test how they align with the outcomes we want and expect from our future. It's one extremely helpful tool we can use towards achieving Life Alignment.

We can say that the our life turns on the Desire Engine, and our self-expansion (even transformation) turns on our progress and process in life. One helpful way to visualize this relationship, is like a set of gears.

Everything we experience begins with thought. Emotions, belief, attitude, choice, action, relationship, experience, material wealth — it all begins with our thinking. We create, and co-create, with thought.
Aligning aspects of our internal process and external action can focus and energize our forward progress in life. Both short-term goals and long-term dreams are more easily achieved when all the gears of our Desire Engine are meshing well and running smoothly.
On the other hand, fears and other inhibitions can slow or thwart our progress through the Desire Cycle, slowing our forward motion through life, and lowering our energy levels. It's also possible to make choices that are not aligned with who we are, and this is like putting the wrong kind of fuel in our engine—it can't run its most efficient under those circumstances.
This kind of "poor running motor" might result in (at minimum) a feeling of sluggishness, or that we're "stuck," but it doesn't have to be that way. Everyone has the capacity to enjoy the increased energy and happiness that comes from aligning thoughts, beliefs, attitudes and choices with desires and objectives.
Can we choose our thoughts? Yes. And since our emotions follow our thinking, choosing our thoughts more carefully can change everything—from our mood, to our productivity and overall success.
Can we choose our beliefs? Yes. Thoughts held over time become beliefs, and through teachable techniques, we can accelerate changes in beliefs that no longer work for us.
Can we choose to align choices with desires and objectives? You bet. Smart companies do this with products, streamlining and aligning processes to gain more reliability and consistency in manufacturing.
With a smart way of paying attention, and a bit of practice using the tools we are all born with, we can simplify and align our lives through smarter choices that line up with our objectives and desires.
