Passion - Fuel for success

Burning desire transcends state of brain that engages the subconscious mind to focus and ultimately leads to the path of success. But, where does this burning desire comes from ? Is that in our gene ? You would find it surprising but burning desire is a form of energy generated by compulsive, positive state of mind called passion.

Passion stimulates faculty of creative imagination in our brain through this imagination power one can communicate to subconscious minds of other individuals and nature. Nature implants gifts of ideas into conscious mind when its filled with creative imagination. This is how Mahatma Gandhi became champion of human rights, Winston Churchill for freedom and Martin Luther King Jr. for equality. Passion also nurtures faculty of willpower and persistence since they are essential elements on the trails of success.

During gold rush, Mr. Darby from Maryland got passionate to find gold. He spent long time to find area potentially filled with gold and started mining that area. After days of mining he gave up due to lack of willpower and persistence. Soon, he sold machinery to another man who found gold just few feet under and became rich. This taught a great lesson to Mr. Darby to be passionate about the dream and to pursue it till the day of shining success and he later became very successful in his life.

Ask yourself "Do you love what you do ?". "Will you do this if you know that you will not get paid for this work ?". "Do you feel happy and find peace when you focus on your work ?" If answer is resounding YES then you are on trails of success. If answer is NO then your life track needs new directions.

Passion has stupendous power to ignite brain faculty of common man to uncover astonishing discoveries. Einstein, a mediocre student, who later became greatest scientist ever or Thomas Edison, who never finished beyond elementary school, to become the greatest inventor ever.
