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.

Thought and Character By James Allen

                              Thought And Character

The aphorism, "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he," not only embraces the whole of a man's being, but is so comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstance of his life. A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.

As the plant springs from, and could not be without, the seed, so every act of man springs from the hidden seeds of thought, and could not have appeared without them. This applies equally to those acts called "spontaneous" and "unpremeditated" as to those which are deliberately executed.

Act is the blossom of thought, and joy and suffering are its fruit; thus does a man garner in the sweet and bitter fruitage of his own husbandry.

Man is a growth by law, and not a creation by artifice, and cause and effect are as absolute and undeviating in the hidden realm of thought as in the world of visible and material things. A noble and God-like character is not a thing of favor or chance, but is the natural result of continued effort in right thinking, the effect of long-cherished association with God-like thoughts. An ignoble and bestial character, by the same process, is the result of the continued harboring of groveling thoughts.

Man is made or unmade by himself. In the armory of thought he forges the weapons by which he destroys himself. He also fashions the tools with which he builds for himself heavenly mansions of joy and strength and peace. By the right choice and true application of thought, man ascends to the divine perfection. By the abuse and wrong application of thought he descends below the level of the beast. Between these two extremes are all the grades of character, and man is their maker and master.

Of all the beautiful truths pertaining to the soul which have been restored and brought to light in this age, none is more gladdening or fruitful of divine promise and confidence than this--that man is the master of thought, the molder of character, and the maker and shaper of condition, environment, and destiny.

As a being of power, intelligence, and love, and the lord of his own thoughts, man holds key to every situation, and contains within himself that transforming and regenerative agency by which he may make himself what he wills.

Man is always the master, even in his weakest and most abandoned state. But in his weakness and degradation he is foolish master who misgoverns his "household." When he begins to reflect upon his condition and search diligently for the law upon which his being is established, he then becomes the wise master, directing his energies with intelligence and fashioning his thoughts to fruitful issues. Such is the conscious master, and man can only thus become by discovering within himself the laws of thought. This discovery is totally a matter of application, self-analysis and experience.

Only by much searching and mining are gold and diamonds obtained, and man can find every truth connected with his being, if he will dig deep into the mine of his soul. That he is the maker of his character, the molder of his life, and the builder of his destiny, he may unerringly prove, if he will watch, control, and alter his thoughts, tracing their effects upon himself, upon others and upon his life and circumstances, linking cause and effect by patient practice and investigation. And utilizing his every experience, even the most trivial, everyday occurrence, as a means of obtaining that knowledge of himself which is understanding, wisdom, power. In this direction is the law of absolute that "He that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened." For only by patience, practice, and ceaseless importunity can a man enter the door of the temple of knowledge.

WHAT THE FOOLS THINK ABOUT THE WISE

WHAT THE FOOLS THINK ABOUT THE WISE

EMN President

1.   The fools think that the wise are foolish to believe in a God they have not seen, visited or lived with.

Power Point: “Believe in God, believe also in me.”

2.   The fools think that the wise are foolish to believe living forever in a kingdom they never built or seen.

Power Point: “Blessed are those who believe without seeing….”

3.   The fools think that the wise are foolish to believe without seeing in the name of faith.

Power Point: “Eyes have not seen, ears have not heard…..”

4.   The fools think that the wise are foolish to reap where they did not sow in the name of asking God for favour. They love labour more than favour.

Power point: Favour is earned. If you work for God, God will favour you and if you work for man, man will favour you. It is just an extra reward of labour.

5.   The fools think that the wise are foolish to keep giving arms. They believe that the more you give the more empty your pocket will be and the poorer you will become. They never understood that givers never lack.

Power Point: “Give it shall be given unto you good measures shaking over shall men give unto you.”

6.   The fools never understood that the more you excuse yourself the more you accuse yourself.

Power Point: Take and accept responsibility even when the task is odd and shameful.

7.   The fools think that every misfortune is a curse from the village. They never come to terms that one could mistakenly put a curse on himself and for that they will always look for who to blame.

Power Point: Whose fault is it that you are where you are today? Find out.

8.   The fools think that love is all about sex.

Power Point: Relationship built on the platform of sex will collapse but relationship built on commitment and character will succeed. Sex is love, commitment and good only for between married couple but a sin that leads to death for unmarried people.

9.   The fools think that the wise is foolish to stand and face risks and challenges even when they had the opportunity to quit and take refuge in their comfort zone. They risk their life by living a risk free life.

Power Point: It is more risky not to take risk than taking risk. Those that risk in God will rise in life. Nothing attracts the mantle like battles.

10.  The fools think that the wise are foolish to make plans against days and years they are not yet sure they will live up to see.

Power Point: Planning is both an art and a discipline. Learn to make plans. You reap the dividend of your past in the present therefore; invest in your today so that you will be qualified to have a share in the future. Yesterday is enjoyed today and the enjoyment of tomorrow is dependent on the today – every moment. Don’t fail to plan otherwise you have planned to fail.

The wise does not think anything about the fool only that he knows that a fool is a fool. He has better things to think about than to sit and worry why a fool is a fool.

Dear reader, if you find yourself patterning your thought-life in this direction as stated above, please desist and make amends. Follow men whose thinking faculty is capable of creating a better world.
