DESIRE; THE BEST WAY TO START


                                                   Desire: The Best Way To Start

“The starting point of all achievement is DESIRE. 
Keep this constantly in mind.
Weak desire brings weak results, just as a small
 fire makes a small amount of heat.” 
 Napoleon Hill
When you intend to start up something that is worth awhile, you must have the strong desire to start as this has remained the starting point of every achievement. Hoping and wishing will make no sense to acquiring what you desired. Whatever business you plan to go into requires a pulsating desire to transcend above.
Before you planned going to school, have you ever desired to be educated? Before you planned studying medicine, have you ever desired to be a medical doctor? Before you planned going to Bible School or any Ministerial School, have you ever desired to preach the gospel? Before you planned applying for a job, have you ever desired to work? Amongst other discoveries as will be stated later is that the lack of desire is because many people strive to live on another person’s dream – they live they whole life trying to fulfill the dreams of their parents, uncles or siblings. Know this; when you live trying to fulfill someone’s dream, you lack the desire to start yours.
Imbibing an all-consuming desire to succeed demand several factors such as;
1.      Commitment
Commitment is a very vital tool to succeeding in your desires. Nothing can possibly stand on your way beyond the limit you are committed to allow it.
For any desire to succeed, you must be committed to everything that’s able and capable to make it work.

2.      Living a Purpose-driven Life
Definiteness of purpose remains the starting point for all success — the man who knows exactly what he wants… has no difficulty in believing in his own desires and ability to succeed. Napoleon Hill said; “if you think you can you are right and if you think you can’t, you are also right”. What drives people differ from individual to individual and for your desires to end in fruitful result, you must live on purpose. Don’t do things that will slow the speed towards achieving that business you intended to start.
3.      Being Focused
Your direction in life is controlled by what you desire. If you don’t desire anything strong enough to keep on course, you will be easily distracted because life comes with a whole lot of things that will distract you from getting started and when you give in to it, you give up on yourself then life will now offer you a goal to fight for. A friend of mine, Peace Kalu said; “life is like a farm land, whether you cultivate it or you don’t, something must definitely come out of it”. Being focused is the only way of initiating what grows out of your life. When you are focused, you don’t lack direction at every point in your life but when you lack focus towards where you are going, you end up finding yourself where you never liked to be.
4.      Information (Being Knowledgeable)
The desire to be successful is what everybody craves for but many lacks the obsessive spirit to become because they lacked information on how to start. If you lack information, you will produce a deformed desire. If you lack information, you will keep awake over a negative and most times an unfruitful desire. For your desires to succeed, learn new things every day to make it work.
5.      God
The God-factor is a very important factor in initiating a successful desire. Nobody succeeds outside God but everybody can succeed in-and-with God. The Bible said; “in everything you do, acknowledge Him and He will make your way prosperous”.
Involving God in every little detail of your life is a way of asking Him to work on the abundance of your heart. When the abundance of your heart is at right, your heart desires positive things and your mouth speaks good. Your life takes up a new meaning when God is involved. New meaning includes good starting; it includes good success in business and a fruitful end.

Wisdom Keys From My Third Book - BEFORE YOU GET STARTED....


Wisdom Keys From My Third Book

Author
When you live trying to fulfill someone’s dream, you lack the desire to start yours.

When we fill and re-fill up a dream, God fulfills it. God’s part is not to dream for us but to fulfill our dreams and our own part is to fulfill God’s dream for Him and not to dream for Him – this is the essence of covenant (doing for your partner what he can’t do for himself).

Hoping and wishing will make no sense to acquiring what you desired.

For any desire to come to pass it must be assiduously worked on day and night even while all men are asleep.

The reason why most people fail is because of their lack of understanding of what miracle is.

Be positive about your background; be motivated by positive ideologies and development a positive mental attitude in order to succeed in life.

Desire gets stronger and stronger by continuously desiring to succeed and be in-charge.

The extent of your desire to succeed is the limit to which you will succeed – develop an all-consuming desire to succeed.

A focused man sees only his goal.
