A Strong Desire Is All You Need To Succeed

Powerful things happen after you begin putting in place the work to attain your goals. You become dependent on the progress and fall in love with the process.

Success means living a full life filled with ambition and drive to conquer it all. Your life is too short for you to be chasing unfruitful outcomes that don’t add up to your success. You need to have a strong desire, a clear mindset, and discipline to succeed.

The start of success is desire. A desire so strong, that it makes you get up and get out of bed each morning to seize the day. When you have a strong sense of desire, nothing in the world can shake you. We have numbered days on this planet so why not make them worth celebrating. Success in life only comes from great decisions and great decisions come from the desire to achieve it all. 

A much-needed Wake-up Call

It is a very true fact that some people are perceived to have it easy. They happen to have their whole life laid out in front of them. From the perfect education to the perfect career, everything is a cakewalk for them. 

Maybe that’s not real. Maybe it is. But it is neither a lie nor speculation that most people don’t have it easy. You see all around yourself, each face you see, every person you meet, everyone has a story. One look at them and you know that struggle is written all over them. If everyone is struggling then how are so many beautiful humans so accomplished and thriving? It is because of one and only one thing. Desire.

You see, it may be a generic thing to say but what does wake you up in the morning? A strong desire to attend to nature’s call, a need to reach your workplace in time or to attend to your family’s needs. Doesn’t it all boil down to your desire to do all these chores? You did them because you wanted to. 

The same way the larger the goal is, the stronger you desire should be. Desire to visit your boss on the weekend, eh. But the desire to go away on a weekend is pure happiness in a travel bag. 

Most of us have a desire to accomplish a whole lot of things in life. Some people have the desire to be rich, some have to be successful in their respective fields, while some have the desire to learn new things and travel. I for one have a desire to learn pottery for a few years. But did I accomplish it? No.

These kinds of desires don’t require much time and energy but we still don’t manage to accomplish them. The kind of desires that we have for our success need a far greater push than these. We need to realize what we want in our lives and how much we want it. The moment we realize our true desires, that is our wake-up call to do something and everything about it.

Learn to Unlearn

We are not proud of it but most of us deep down are lazy. We want everything at our feet and we consider sloth as our spirit animal. But success needs the sacrifice of unhealthy habits and an introduction of the discipline into our lives. We desire a lot of things but the major hurdle between our desire and actualizing it into success is the discipline that needs to be kept in check because when we don’t, we keep falling back into our habits that do not and will not lead to success in any way. 

Your desire needs to be strong because only that way you can stay on the track of discipline because we can never succeed if we don’t change something that we do daily.

It is rightfully said, “To succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.” If you don’t decide to step out of your bubble and make up your mind to conquer the day you are not going to make it. Every single individual with a strong desire for success is hustling and succeeding in conquering the day. 

Know What You Want

What sets successful people apart from those who are not is just their mere ability or knowledge but their strong desire. Successful people know how capable they are and what they want. Nothing can stop them from achieving their true desire. They get back on their feet after failure, accept their mistakes and learn from them. This is the one true way successful people turn their desires into reality. 

You need to stay disciplined and have a strong game plan to achieve success. The desire for something is important for your success because it gives meaning to your journey towards achieving them, otherwise, they are nothing short of wishful thinking. You should steer clear of instant gratification because that will only result in you procrastinating a lot. Toil through the rigorous journey of turning your desires into success so that you feel proud of all that you have achieved.

The desire for something is like fuel that ignites your mind, body, and soul. The insatiable urge you feel when you wish to do nothing but keep working on your goal and go through any hurdles and do whatever it takes to achieve it. The desire for success should be so strong in you that you feel strong enough to dive into the sea of unfathomable risk even when you have no cushion to fall back to. 

A strong desire takes you on the harshly beautiful road of success where you are confident enough to commit yourself to achieve success no matter how long or how much it takes for you to achieve it. Success is created from the very moment you develop and desire for something and work on it to make it so strong that you become unstoppable until you achieve it.
