Have you ever read the
book “Think and Grown Rich”? What do you think about the title? Can man really
think and Grow rich? Well, this is what this blog post seeks to answer ,think
on the above and let me know your reply.
Obviously, Napoleon
Hills’ Think and Grow Rich is the all time inspirational classic for
anyone who is daring enough to turn desire into monetary equivalent. I bought
my personal copy of Think and Grow Rich
in 2007, and I remember a course mate standing close by wondering and
saying aloud if it is possible to think and Grow Rich. So, have I grown Rich
when I bought the book in 2007?
I don’t think I should answer the question now
as this blog post would do just that. May be you are not an avid reader of self
help books, I agree because you always doubt what it contains, no wonder you
remain bound in your circumstance. This blog post would clear all the doubts if
you would read to the end. Well, if your patience is running out just know the
seed of greatness is never in one who is not patient.Close the page, and see
you in another world! Ahh, you still reading, well today I would want to write
and share with you the Secrets of Napoleon Hills as written in
the book Thinks and Grow Rich.
Secret
1; Desire
It is not
accidental that Napoleon Hills begins his secret of success with desire.
Success always begins with desire,most people want to be successful, however, wanting
success is a waste of time.
Worse, it just
produces frustration. Only a burning, all-consuming, fervent and passionate
desire will produce the exceptional results that make up true success.Wanting
and wishing for something is synonymous, most people wish they have a decent
house to leave in and a nice car to match their life. They wish and wish till
they finally become frustrated. Wishing or wanting never brings a thing into
reality,remember, if wishes were horses baggers would ride.
Wanting is best
understood by its second meaning in the dictionary: lack.To want for something
is to lack something and so long as you merely want success, you will lack
success.You must have or develop a burning passion for success. Without it, you
are highly unlikely to achieve anything. Get passionate now and take action! This
is critical…your desire must be specific. It must be attached to a clear and
specific ideal, a clear and consistent thought picture of what
success means to you.
When I was in the
university, I wanted to upgrade myself and wished to write an international
diploma exam before graduating. Wishing for the diploma never worked till I
finally desired it. It was with that passionate and burning need that I have
successfully written two international diploma within a year. Now I am
fulfilled because I not only wanted it, I desired it and it is now made
possible. What do you want in Life? Is it just a Want for it, or you have a
burning desire for it?
The Good Book says,
‘what so ever thing you desire, when you pray believe you have received it and you
would have it”
So you see, the first
key to achievement in life is Desire for the thing not just wanting.
What do you
think?
