If you don’t know what you want, you won’t see what you find

house-163526_960_720We usually know what we want. We want a new job, make new friends, change our place of residence, we want to buy a car, go on a special trip or buy a house. That’s perfect, we’ve set the goal but it won’t be enough if we don’t make a correct analysis of our needs and define the specific characteristics of our search.

The first question to ask ourselves is why do we need it? And, what for? We should answer ourselves realistically on which is our ideal and, of course, with what we are willing to give up and with the resources we have, both financial and emotional. It’s important that we reflect on our needs, that we share them, communicate them and, why not, write them down and structure them.

If, during this first phase, we are not honest with ourselves or we set unattainable goals, we will be wasting our time and energy and specially missing opportunities.

Looking for a house can be very frustrating when none of the ones we find really excite us but, do we really know what we are looking for? To know what one is looking for means having the ideal characteristics well defined, both the must-have and the dispensable. If we don’t make concessions to the not so essential aspects we will most likely not find the house we need.

There are three main factors when looking for a house: location, size and price. With luck, only two of these aspects will coincide with the ones you initially defined. That’s normal, but you have to accept it and make a decision soon enough or the opportunity will be gone.

If we don’t accept that the perfect house does not exist and we can’t bring ourselves to give up on any of our initial requirements, if we can’t see that the house we’re visiting is the house we’re looking for,  we will never find the house we need.

Take heart, in your case this is not going to happen, you’ll soon find a magnificent house.
