Desire can be tricky to define, due to the fact that it means so many things to so many people. Some people view desire as a feeling that they come across every so often, whereas for others, it is a constant state of mind. Desire is when a person’s wants and needs align and they decide that nothing will keep them from their goal.
As much as we like to blame outside factors for our lack of success, in reality, we are the ones who end up stopping us. That is why desire is so crucial to obtaining success and wealth. Without it, all we do is continue to make excuses for ourselves, excuses that do not hold weight and serve to provide a barrier between us and our dreams.
If a person did not desire wealth and success, then they would never make the necessary changes in their life. While many believe that they do not have to live any differently than they do now in order to see their wildest dreams come true, this is patently false. Doing the same things over and over again and expecting a different result to come about is the definition of insanity.
What the vast majority of people do not realize is that there is a huge gulf between wishing for wealth and the desiring of wealth. We have all wished for wealth at one point in our lives or another. Times get hard and we cross our fingers, hoping for a big satchel of cash to fall from the sky, or one of those sacks from the movies with the dollar signs written on the side.
But when you desire wealth, you are not just waiting, wishing and hoping. You are taking true steps each and every day towards your goal and not allowing yourself to be waylaid by all of the usual excuses that people come up with when things haven’t gone the way that they are supposed to.
Desiring wealth is great, but having a certain level of clarity about these desires is just as crucial. Setting goals that you will be able to feasibly reach will ensure your success. Perhaps you desire $1 million dollars, but you prefer to spend most of your time volunteering your time, or perhaps do not want to work at all.
In that case, tampering down your expectations keeps you from becoming too disappointed. When people allow life to let them down, they begin to abandon their dreams. Once they make an effort and do not get where they are trying to go, everything changes. They no longer want to put in the extra time and effort.
All of the desire in the world helps no one when they do not have clarity. Clarity is what helps us tell the difference between the goals we should be chasing and the ones that we simply need to let fall by the wayside.
The greatest assets that a person has are their heart’s desires. We have the unique ability to make the experiences that rest within our heart come to life with our own hard work. The desires of your heart indicate to you that you can have these experiences if you set your mind to it.
If you can desire an experience in your heart, then you can make it happen. There is nothing holding you back except for your own fears and apprehensions. Realizing that these desires were not placed in your heart against your will, that they are the manifestation of years of want, is the first step you can take towards achieving what you’ve always dreamed of.
Cultivating that burning internal desire and using it to your benefit is easier than one may think. There are a variety of ways to go about it, all of which will lead to a significant increase in your wealth and success.
Visualizing what you want and writing it down help out greatly. If you can see it, you can achieve it. We also have the unique power to be able to speak things into existence. Often, we don’t believe in ourselves enough to say what we truly desire out loud. We think people will make fun of us for having ambition.
Once you’ve begun to visualize your goal and speak about it out loud, these tactics serve to make your impending wealth and success seem far more realistic. There is a little voice inside all of our heads that keeps us from putting our best foot forward and visualization is the first step towards silencing it.
Speaking about your desires to close friends and trusted family members also helps to cultivate the passion within. When the people in your life who truly care about you see that you are not happy and that you are not working towards achieving the desires that make you truly happy, they offer encouragement and help you to get back on the right foot.
Finally, the last and most pivotal step: Stop telling yourself no and start telling yourself yes. Strip away the multitude of excuses that you have allowed yourself to lean on for so many years. There is only one true obstacle to your success and that is you.
Wealth and success are not a figment of your imagination. They are both very real. By allowing the desires you feel to be cultivated and having a clear viewpoint of what you can and cannot achieve, you can turn what you thought were fantasies into realities.
