Thinking Through Success – Brings Good Fortune


We have to go through all the challenges in life, that we expect to have, only then can we can realise that they were meaningless, and only then will we be ready to accept that all we need is “Belief”.

  • Introduction
In essence this blog is about progress, in fact everything in life is about progress, (continuity and change) we can get caught up on the idea or the concept of the goals that we wish to achieve. However all success is built from a process of lots of little steps that change and continue to result in the achievement of our goal.

Success should be fun and it usually always is when we finally achieve it, namely for the fact that success is often borne out of stress and anxiety. Progress is our auto navigator to success, we can feel when things are going right or wrong, and those thoughts and emotions can lead us into different directions. Often it will make people give up, that stress of having already spent so much money or having paid too much time and attention, to a particular aspect that makes you not want to stop and try something else. Or it may be that panic or desire can make you leap into reactions rather than stopping to think.

Progress can affect what your doing, encourage you to react and make mistakes or give up, or it can encourage you to go forth and re-double your efforts. Its progress that takes us from start to finish and as such is the master key to success.


  • Desire
Desire is critical to success, but what does it mean? It would be nice, I really need, I’d like, I have a longing, craving, yearning. Desire like all words has a semantic content and so it has different meanings to different people. Desire is a word that has an emotive content and the synthesis of success from desire will come from a wanting that has both physical and mental properties.

Its amazing what we can do through desire, it can help us look after and protect our children / loved ones. It can help even the hopeless cook prepare a great meal. When we really want to accomplish something it can help us all the way.

So why is having a desire to earn money, not sufficient to conjure up the idea of what to do and how to be successful at making money? The desire is what makes you cling to the idea of what you believe in and it will give you the sincerity that would influence even the most intractable opposition.

The biggest problem with desire is that we are naturally configured to desire what we want. This may seem strange, but it is the reason why so many people fail at achieving what they need to do to make themselves successful.

It is because they spend all their attention on what they desire, which is the end result rather than what they need to do in order to create the result they desire. The problem again is that there are a lot of people who will sell you what you desire, they’ll sell you what you want rather than what you need.

Its easy to sell people what they want and for a short time it will be very profitable, but like all dreams they come to an end and everyone is left deflated.

Then most people either give up or run to another dream, they know the problems with the last dream and now are prepared because this time they have found the dream they want. All the time, ignoring what will really take them to achieve what they need to succeed.
