The Reason For Daily Visualization
Napoleon Hill spoke about having a “burning desire” to achieve this.
Meaning you had to have a desire so strong, it would overpower everything that life through up in the way.
For example, if you were walking down a random street and there was a pile of smelly trash in the way, you’d probably just choose a different street.
But if you KNEW there was a sack of cash at the end of that street, you wouldn’t hesitate to climb over that pile of trash.
This is why having a burning desire is so crucial. The bigger the strength of your burning desire, the easier it will be to overcome the inevitable obstacles that come up.
And they WILL come up!
After all, if it were easy, it wouldn’t be any fun!
A great way to build up your burning desire is to simply spend a few minutes a day visualizing your goal.
Some people misinterpret the reason for this. Some believe that visualizing your goal is all that’s required.
While in reality, visualizing your goal is what gives you the motivation to go out into the world and get it.
One of the best examples of this is the California gold rush. In the mid 1800’s, gold was discovered in California.
This set off one of the largest mass migrations in history. People took off across the country, many on foot, with only a burning desire of finding gold.
Every single day, they got up, and overcame different obstacles. And everyday, they kept their burning desire in mind.
This is the power of the human spirit. YOUR human spirit.
With a sufficient burning desire in mind, you can achieve ANYTHING.
Sure, it will take time. Sure it will be difficult. Sure there will be setbacks.
But this is the purpose of life itself. To set big dreams, and CHOOSE to go after them.
What do you want?
Can you picture it? Does it get you excited? Do you think about it when you’re at stoplights, in the elevator, or waiting in line at the supermarket?
You should.
The more you burn that desire into your brain, the more motivation you’ll feel, and the faster and easier it will come.
