       Therefore, all aggravation has its root in wants and cravings. How do we give up this aggravation, then? You give up aggravation by surrendering to an attitude of wantingness. Whatever want you have needs to be given up because a strong yearning for something to happen blocks out God’s power from flowing. Give up that wish for other people to treat you how you think they should. You will find that, in doing so, people will come to treat you better and better. For the person sitting in traffic, give up the desire to get to work in the fastest amount of time possible. If the wife wanting your husband to spend more time with you, decide you will enjoy the evening regardless of what he does. When your craving has been relinquished—the spiritual block as been removed—and what you really wanted can then come into your life. I know, it sounds backwards, but this is the best way to get what you want.
