FOCUS YOUR ENERGY ON GETTING WHAT YOU DESIRE THE MOST, AND ACHIEVE IT

For the last three or four years, I’ve developed an interest in analysing what brings success in life. Is it luck? Or the result of other factors?

I’ve come to the conclusion that what matters most is passion! With passion, you undoubtedl­y find your way even in the midst of darkness.

Joseph Campbell said, “Passion will move men beyond themselves, beyond their shortcomin­gs, beyond their failures.”

The best part is that none of us is lacking in passion. The goal may be positive or negative. A student, who is more interested in sleeping than in studying, will make all types of excuses to go back to asleep.

He will end up getting what he desired the most – sleep, but he will not be able to cover his course.

We focus all our energy with all its positivity towards attaining the thing we desire the most and achieve it. To receive one thing, we sometimes have to forego another. In the above example, it was impossible that the student keeps sleeping and his course also gets covered. The choice was absolutely his.

The concept applies to all time frames — five minutes, one day, one month, one year or one life.

However, it is restricted to our desire placed at serial number one in all time frames.
