It’s unfortunate, but many people think, or, out of frustration, have programmed themselves to believe, that love "simply happens". To further compound the issue, their friends and family say to them "stop looking. It will come when you least expect it." Now, when is the last time you, or anyone else you may know or heard of, actually achieved a goal or obtained a desire by not taking any action? Granted, there are times when circumstances arise that place an individual at the right place and time for them to get what they wish. However, even then they must have been thinking about what they wanted in some manner, otherwise they wouldn’t have even recognized the opportunity. In addition, to realize their goal or dream, they would have had to take action to accept it. Hence, there are two components to achieving any goal, including finding your "soul mate", and they are: intention and action.

Intention is where you determine exactly what you want. If you don’t know what you want, how are you going to know it when you see it? Hence, it is important to get clear in your mind the type of person you want to be with and the type of relationship you want to be in. Make no mistake; this is an extremely important part of achieving any goal or obtaining any desire. Do NOT skip this step. Also, do NOT use your past relationships or life experiences to influence your thoughts on what is possible or available and what is not. If this point is difficult, remind yourself that simply because you haven’t experienced something does NOT mean it doesn’t exist; it simply means you haven’t experienced it yet.

Action is where you create the "channels" or arrange the circumstances so that your goal or desire can come to you and be realized. That’s right, I said "come to you". If someone offers you a gift, how can you receive it if you don’t put out your hands? By performing this simple action with your hands, you are enabling a "channel" for the gift to come to you. In this same manner of thought, you must take action and setup the channels through which your "true love" can come to you. For this scenario, such channels could include connections with friends and family, social events, bars and clubs, and even an online dating site. The problem with all but the last option, Internet dating, is that you are limited to not only the number of people you can meet but also the type, which obviously limits your choices; and, let’s face it, in today’s world, we barely have enough time to go to the bathroom let alone many different social events. So, that leaves us with the last option mentioned, an online dating site.

"Online dating", or "Internet dating" as it is also known, has been around for a long time now, well over a decade. The advantages of this method of locating a "love" are many: searching for someone can be done in accordance with your schedule (24 hours a day/7 days a week/365 days a year); there is a huge selection of different types of people with different qualities to choose from; if someone tries to contact you, you don’t have to respond if you’re not interested; you have the ability to search for someone that possesses the qualities and characteristics that you are looking for, such as smoking and drinking habits, ethnicity, religious denomination, kids, eye color, and much more, by using simple filters. Without a doubt, online dating increases the probability that you will find someone that will add to the happiness in your life. Without online dating, chances are you will be waiting forever for that special someone to walk into your life or you’ll simply give up "waiting" and settle. To me, neither of those options sounds good. So, to greatly increase your chances of finding the one who is most compatible with you, look into online dating.

So, stop "waiting" and take action. As is oftentimes said "99% of your happiness, or misery, comes from the one you marry." So, don’t leave your love life, or your future happiness, to chance; take control and follow the steps outlined in this article.
