The above reminds me, with the can't-versus-choose-not-to, also -- I started underlining the word "want" when I use it in my journal, to emphasize that I am not just doing the automatic, "if wishes were horses, beggars would ride" thing and am aware of consciously desiring something and intending to go after it. I think I sometimes must look a little funny, when I hesitate before I underline or change the word/entry all together.
