Purpose: CEO of success

"All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his thoughts" - James Allen

Life becomes, regardless of our circumstances, what we conceive. Garden looks beautiful and pleasing and blossoms fruits that a garner desires, so is the garden of our life. With thoughts guided by righteousness and noble goals plant seed of success in our life. Thoughts attract happiness if they are guided by principle of moral values and a life long purpose. Thoughts attract despair, gloom and failures if they are guided by demons of immoral values.

A well conceived purpose molds your thoughts into pursuit of kind, pure,gentle deeds that blossom fruits of your dreams as a fertilizer blossoms the fruits of well planned, prepared harvest. Purpose becomes lightning rod that guides your thoughts to get organized and act on achieving what your mind conceives. You can not direct circumstances around you but you can direct your thoughts to a well planned purpose and thus control the circumstances. Law of nature attracts and reshape circumstances to which your mind desires and acts on incessantly. if you abandon thoughts of failure and seek the temple of shining success with faith and utmost resolve, nature will facilitate your journey to success by inspiring you with thoughts of opportunities that await for your ride to the doors of success. Act of compassion, kindness and persistence shall never end up in valley of failure. A weak man can build strong body as Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger once did by strong resolve. A weak mind can thus build a strong character with strong resolve to train his thoughts and to accept responsibility for where he is because of his actions and thinking. This resolve and incessant desire to seek happiness, health and prosperity with a noble purpose can conquer any heights of doubts and fear. It will prepare you to face failure as a mere interim, short lived noise in your pathway to success rather than a defining end of your journey.

As a spiritual person devotes his life to attain glory of god, a person with purpose shall devote his life to seek the glory of the purpose either material or spiritual. Without linking thoughts to purpose, life drifts as though horses wanders without a master. Purpose shall be well defined, written down and memorize to propel mind towards its attainment. Goals are subordinate to your purpose and they act in harmony with your purpose to circumvent external forces of short lived fear and failures that may hinder your progress. Memorizing and visualizing a well defined purpose will regroup your thought train to produce meaningful, measurable actions. Having devotee of the purpose, life propels in to space of achievement as does rocket propels straight into space, not left nor right due to external forces of doubts, indecision and failures.

Seeds of thoughts nurtured by definite purpose reaps well conceived, sweet fruits of health, happiness and success as the seeds of fruits nurtured by its keeper. Without the definite purpose, these seeds of thoughts sprung in all the directions as weed without care of its keeper.


Take time and find purpose in your life. Purpose shall be what makes your life happy and fulfilling. It shall not be driven by false impulse of money, flame or glory since if your mind sets to devote itself in a well defined purpose, these virtues will be a byproduct of your devotion. If you've never introspected and self analyzed your life, it is drifting in this ocean of meaningless, mediocre voyage. Take control of your life boat as it is willing to obey your direction to the voyage of land of shining success. Act now or you never will

Want to loose weight ?

New year is around the corner. Often, one of the most common resolutions that people make every year is to shade pounds off their body to look fit. Excellent. It's a positive purpose to regain shape and feel better but time spent on the treadmill alone will not help you reach this goal for long time since exercised body without a determined mind is akin to a rebuilt car with novice driver. If you understand that mind can do miracles, if you believe that things happens with thoughts then you will find this essential clue for the happy, fulfilling life. As much your body needs exercise , mind needs food of positivity since positive mind can guide your actions filled with incessant desire and passion to engage your daily life in pursuit of a definite goal which we call dream.

A woman, Nancy Makin, recently lost 500 pounds and credited all of that to strangers on the internet who made her believe in herself, filled her days on the blogs with positive, uplifting exchange of thoughts to inspire her and to find a purpose driven burning desire to change herself. What happened to her is awesome but underlying principle is ancient. We all have two forms of imagination - synthetic and creative. Synthetic imagination is being built on life experiences and often remains passive. It is through creative imagination that one gets vibrations of minds of other people like the blog community that she was part of. it's thorough creative imagination that she received definite road map or intelligence to change her life not just her appearance. Through this faculty of creative imagination that her subconscious mind got ignited and the rest is the history which you can read on the Yahoo portal.

So, next time when you make a new year resolution to look healthy and feel happy, remember this mantra that "thoughts are things" and as famous writer of past century brilliantly summarized in his book "think and grow rich" - "Whatever your mind can conceive and believe it can achieve".

Are you lucky ?

If you dwell into words that people use to justify some one's success, often you'll hear word "luck" or he or she is "very lucky". That belief itself is rooted in the negative state of mind that believes that success is a virtue and nature only gifted certain group of individuals with this generous gift.What a sad state of mind ? Truth can't be any further from reality as nature wants you to be successful as well if you program your mind to vibrate at the same frequency that nature does.You will ask, what do you mean ? What I mean is that think why success belongs to certain individual ? It is because that person found a passion in his or her life that drove all the horses of success - burning desire, faith and unending ambitions. As foreign it may sound, pursuing your dreams or passion has hardly any nexus with success or wealth. Wealth comes as a mere byproduct, as a gift of nature for all the hard work, passion, love and deep desire to achieve success and happiness.

Take time to ponder over this recipe of success and have fun making success.

  • 1: Have a clear thoughts of "what you wanted". No one has achieved success without knowing where to go.
  • 2: Have plan of action - Act on it everyday.
  • 3: Visualize the success - Dreams blended with imaginations create an incessant burning desire will provide fuel for success. Think and act as if you are successful. This will reinforce positivity in your thinking and actions.
  • 4: Persevere: Greater the desire for success; greater is the need to persevere.
  • 5: Be flexible: Thomas Edison said that success is 90% efforts and 10% genius. What he meant is that to be successful you'll need plan and act on it but if you meet failure then be honest to modify your plan of actions. Think how mountain climbers achieve their goal. They know clearly what they want - "to reach the peak". They have a route but if they feel to change their route, they are flexible since their goal is not to nurture their ego but to reach at the pinnacle.
  • 5: Attitude: This is by far the most important traits of success since attitude can build or ruin your mind.

All of above simply trains your subconscious mind to think and act like a millionaire or dream achiever but negative attitude will evade and control your subconscious mind and it will prevent you from achieving any success. Law of nature suggests that actions and reactions are equal in force. Thus negative attitude will bring you misery, despair and failures where positive attitude will bring happiness, joy and success.

It is not costing you anymore to be positive than it does to be negative. If being positive brings riches why are you so negative ? Well, you'll say I am not. Really, didn't I hear you vouch words "lucky" ?

Dharma - Code of conduct for happiness

There is plethora of information about happiness with the advent of world wide web but I seldom see clear anatomy of happiness defined anywhere. That's not surprising considering the fact that happiness comes from sources sometimes even not known to us. One leading factor though undeniably is one's understanding of "Dharma" which mean one's incessant pursuit of inner and outer happiness with acts of spiritual and moral compassion for all. Ancient Hindu scriptures refer to Dharma as "atman" mean deep inner consciousness or soul. Life ends when soul exits from our body and due to firm integral ties between our soul and Dharma, life looses its moral path once we abandon Dharma.

So, you may ask, what is Dharma ? Vedic scriptures of ancient India defines that life has four major motivational forces. Dharma, Kama, Artha and Moksha. Dharma instills inner strength and spiritual will power and acts as soul purifier to lead our life for an eternal happiness. Kama leads us to happiness with sensual acts. Artha creates burning desire to achieve financial success and the most important of all is moksha means leading life devoted to high spiritual standards to attain heaven and to free one's soul from endless cycle of reincarnation.

We shall ask ourselves everyday, did I do any acts of kindness or compassion ? did I try to be a better father, mother, husband or wife today ? Am I attaining higher moral values ? Answers to these questions will improve your everyday life code of conduct and it will lead your life towards everlasting peace, prosperity and happiness since your actions will conform to law of nature.
