The Sustained Effort Necessary To Induce Faith
The Eighth Step toward Riches
In his book "Think And Grow Rich" Hill writes, "Persistence is an essential factor in the procedure of transmuting DESIRE into its monetary equivalent. The basis of persistence is the POWER OF WILL."
Up Dated 2/23/2011
The most important step Hill says, is knowing what it is you want. I know for sure the one thing I want is time freedom to spend where I want, with whom I want and when I want. It defiantly is later than I think and what have I been doing with my life?
Well, like most people, I have been listening to the wrong advice when it comes to cultivated a state of mind that produces the desired outcome I have been trying to achieve. But that is changing.
Hill says its easy to acquire and to maintain persistence when pursuing the object of intense desire. I must say that is true, at least for me or I would have given up a long time ago.
I have struggled over the years, with my belief in my own ability to carry out a plan and not sabotage it. I am ever so grateful for the friends I have made through the free mentoring community who have encouraged and supported me to continue my journey, write out my plan, and follow it step by step.
Do I have a definite purpose backed by burning desire for its fulfillment?
Yes, very definitely!
Do I have a definite plan, expressed in continuous action?
In all honesty, I have to say I am working on me to enable that plan and move forward into continuous action. It's interesting, this past year, I have become more aware of the things I do to sabotage my plan. I am a work in progress and mastering my own mind will enable me to be a better mentor and coach to others.
Do I have a mind closed tightly against all negative and discouraging influences?
Again, its a work in progress. I'd be lying if I said negative comments, especially from friends and relatives, didn't effect me. All the more reason to stay close to fire, say my self talk and stay focused on my desire. It truly is getting easier to reverse the negative thoughts.
Do I have a friendly alliance with one or more persons who will encourage me to follow through with both plan and purpose?
Most defiantly! And I can say, without a doubt, I now know what it's like to own my life.
