Desire Road and Success Valley

When we realise the true power of our thoughts, and how they affect our desires, we are in a far better position to be able to alter our way of thinking to actually allow our desires to come to fruition.

Have you ever wondered how it seems that some people effortlessly obtain the things they desire in life, and yet many others perpetually struggle to achieve success?

Is this one of the questions in life that seems to constantly take you down the wrong road, or to a dead end? You may be driving along the same road as everyone else, desiring only to reach the same destination, but are you giving your desire the correct fuel?

In general terms for example; you may have the desire to create a healthier bank balance. However, are you so focused on waving goodbye to Debt Street, that the joy of reaching Success Valley becomes, secondary?

 As Napoleon Hill states in his famous book; ‘Think and Grow Rich’ – ‘What the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve’ and, ‘There is one quality that one must possess to win, and that is definiteness of purpose, the knowledge of what one wants, and a burning desire to possess it.’

One of the principles of the Law of Attraction is; ‘You will get what you think about, whether you want it or not’. Bob Doyle, author and Law of Attraction specialist explains in ‘The Secret’ book; ‘The Law of Attraction doesn’t care whether you perceive something as good or bad, or whether you don’t want it or whether you do want it. It’s responding to your thoughts.’

So, in the above example, even though your desire may be to attract more financial abundance, if you are constantly thinking about all the bills piling up, and how hard it is to get what you desire, you will get exactly that – more of the same.

If your desire is to find a fulfilling relationship; You may make an outward show that you are available, but have you already quashed all opportunities by that nagging voice inside your head telling you that it will probably end like last time? Guess what, the law of attraction responds.

If your desire is to lose that weight to feel and be healthier; You may go along to the gym and start to eat healthier, but you focus on all the fit and healthy people and think; I’ll never end up looking like them. And again, the law of attraction hears you.

When we realise the true power of our thoughts, and how they affect our desires, we are in a far better position to be able to alter our way of thinking to actually allow our desires to come to fruition.

Our past thoughts have created our present and our present thoughts will be instrumental to our future. Whatever it is that you desire in life, it is important to remember that your future and the outcome of your desires, is entirely up to you!

I wish you happy travels in your journey for the success of your desires, and it is always good to remember:- ‘Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful’ – Herman Cain.

Success Plan!

    Law of Attraction and The Secret are two books that I wanted to read, but still haven’t done. Hope to do so in the near future.
