The Starting Point of All Achievement

There is one quality which one must possess to win, and that is DEFINITENESS OF PURPOSE, the knowledge of what one wants, and a burning DESIRE to possess it. pg. 38

There are 6 steps to transforming desire into outcome.

1. You must be explicit in your wants.
2. You must determine what you’re willing to give in order to get what you want.
3. Specify a precise timeline required to reach your goals.
4. Determine a plan of action and begin immediately.
5. Put the whole scheme into plain English.
6. Read the statement twice daily until you feel and believe it to already be.

You achieve what you set out to achieve, so set your goals high.

In order to have a burning desire to accomplish something, you must be willing to burn bridges. By burning bridges, you leave yourself no room for error. You force yourself to succeed because you cannot go back. Failure is not an option.

You must believe in yourself and your ability to achieve your goals so that you can take the necessary actions to reach your goals.

Why? You don’t want to be rich and bored. You want rich and happy. Boredom is the antonym of happiness. If there were no hold-backs, what do you want to do, have, or learn in the next 3 months, 6 months or 1 year? If you don’t know what to do, determine what do you want to be? We can rewrite be as actionable steps towards doing.

You must name your enemy before you can defend against it. You must define your future before you can take action. Only after this identification process can you move towards your goals. If you so much as complete one dream, that’s a dream that wouldn’t have come true without taking action. Do it. It’s doable. Think Nike®.
