We need to write down your chief aim.

It will mean a loss you can ill afford if you fail to grasp the real reason for establishing a definite chief aim in your mind.

There principles are:
First, every voluntary movement of the human body is caused, controlled, and directed by thought, through the operation of mind.
Second, The presence of  any thought or idea in your consciousness tends to produce an associated feeling and urge you to transform that feeling into appropriate muscular action that is perfect harmony with the nature of thought.

Example. A definite purpose as your life's work and make up your mind that you will carry out that purpose. From the very moment you make this choice, this purpose becomes the dominating thought in your consciousness, and you are constantly on the alert for facts, information, and knowledge with which to achieve that purpose. From the time that you plant a definite purpose in your mind, your mind begins,both consciously and unconsciously, to gather and store the material with which you are to accomplish that purpose.

Desire is the factor that determines what your definite purpose in life shall be. No one can select your dominating desire for you, but once you select it yourself it becomes your definite chief aim and occupies the spotlight of your mind until it is transformed into reality, unless you permit it to be pushed aside by conflicting desires.

To be sure of successful achievement, one's definite chief aim in life should be backed with a burning desire for its achievement.

Merely desiring freedom would never release a prisoner if that desire were not sufficiently strong to cause him to do something to entitle himself to freedom.

Beyond your burning desire

Three steps leading desire to fulfillment.
1.Burning Desire.
2.Crystallization of that desire into a definite purpose.
3.Sufficient action to achieve that purpose.
remember that these three steps are always necessary to ensure success.

A definite purpose is something that you must create for yourself. No one else will create it for your and it will not create itself. What are you going to do about it? and when? how?

Desire

Start now to analyze your desires and find out what it is that you wish, then make up your mind to get it.

Your part is to follow the directions until you arrive at your destination, as represented by your definite chief aim. Make that aim clear and back it up with a persistence that does not recognize the word impossible.

When you come to select your definite chief aim, just keep in mind the never varying truth that you'll get nowhere if you start nowhere. If your aim in life is vague, your achievements will be also vague, and, it might well be added, very meager. Know what you want, when you want it, why you want it, and how you intend to get it.

Every line a man writes, and every act in which he indulges, and every word he utters, serves as inescapable evidence of the nature of that which is deeply embedded in his own heart, a confession that he cannot disavow.

Your first step is to decide what your major aim in life shall be. Your next step is to write out a clear, concise statement of this aim. This should be followed by a statement, in writing, of the plan or plans through which you intend to attain the object of your aim.

Your next and final step will be the forming of an alliance with some person or persons who will cooperate with you in carrying out these plans and transforming your definite chief aim into reality.

The purpose of this friendly alliance is to employ the law of the master mind in support of your plans. The alliance should be made between yourself and those who have highest and best interest at heart.

If you are married, your spouse, should be one of the members of this alliance, providing there exists between you a normal state of confidence and sympathy. Other members of this alliance may be your mother, father, brothers and sisters, or some close friends or friends.

If you are a single person your sweetheart if you have one, should become a member of your alliance. This is no joke.

Indecision

Procrastination robs you of opportunity. It is a significant fact that no great leader was ever known to procrastinate. You are fortunate if ambition drives you into action, never permitting you to falter or turn back once you have rendered a decision to go forward. You may be shocked if you kept accurate account of the time you waste in a single day. Second by second, as the clock ticks off the distance, time is running a race with you. Delay means defeat, because no one may ever make up a second of lost time. Wasted time is one of the chief causes of failure. Time is also, however, a master worker that heals the wounds of failure and disappointment, and rights all wrongs and turns all mistakes into capital. But it favors only those who kill off procrastination and remain in action when there are decisions to be made. Life is a great checkerboard. The player opposite you is Time. If you hesitate you will be wiped off the board. If you keep moving you may win. The only real capit...

THE SUCCESS HABIT

“Success is simple. Do what’ s right, the right way, at the right time.”  —Arnold H. Glasow The choice we face is whether or not we want to form habits that get us what we want from life. If we do, then the Focusing Question is the most powerful success habit we can have. Whenever the outcome absolutely matters, I ask it. I ask it when I wake up and start my day. I ask it when I get to work, and again when I get home. What’s the ONE Thing I can do such that by doing it everything else will be easier or unnecessary? And when I know the answer, I continue to ask it until I can see the connections and all my dominoes are lined up. Obviously, you can drive yourself nuts analyzing every little aspect of everything you might do. I don’t do that, and you shouldn’t either. Start with the big stuff and see where it takes you. Over time, you’ll develop your own sense of when to use the big picture question and when to use the small-focus question. The Focusing Question is the found...
