As a child, were you told 'I want never gets'? I was, frequently. I guess my mum wanted me to ask for things nicely, but I got into the habit of thinking that I really couldn't have what I want. Over the years it became a bit of a mindset. I thought that there was no point asking for anything as I thought that 'I want never gets'. I know now that it is ok to want things, as long it's something that I really want and can picture having it and that it is in line with my highest good and that no one gets hurt in the process.

If saying 'I want' still feels uncomfortable, it can help to replace the word want with the word have. I 'want a new car' becomes 'I have a new car'. This helps because your subconscious can't tell the difference between what you think you have and what you actually have. It also stops you from pushing what you truly desire away from you.
