BURNING DESIRE - LET THE DESIRE BURN YOU OR YOU WILL GET BURNED

Desire – Not talking about swift desire but about the desire that we have in our heart. 
 Just as candle cannot burn without fire, a man cannot live without desire.

 Every one of us has some desires, wishes, aspirations, longings for something which is so dear to our heart.  Our dreams become our desire. But just desiring or dreaming or craving for something leads to what we want. Answer is Perfect NO. It is burning desire that matters. We say we failed but is that the end? No, it is one step closer to success. As we fail, our knack for “right actions” and good “judgement blossoms”. Each failure adds more fuel to your burning desire. Unless and until you don’t have burning desire you won’t succeed and even though if you succeed it will be a fake success. Burning desire has the will to overcome all the stumbling blocks, it shows you the path untraveled, it gives you courage you never dreamed of and it will ultimately lead you to success.

if everything is so easy, what is that stops us from converting our desire to burning desire. It can be one of these – our actions, our decisions or our fear – “Fear of failure” and one can overcome this fear by his/her beliefs. Your beliefs pave your way to success or block you. Get your beliefs and priorities right; actions will take care of other things. To keep yourself focus, just visualise one thing daily every morning – You have succeeded in your desire after working very hard and how it feels. Just let the feeling of success sink in for some time. This will keep you focussed.

Finishing with 2 finest quotes that perfectly fit in here:

Eleanor Roosevelt: It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness.

Here candle symbolises desire, light the candle to get a burning desire and remove the darkness of your thoughts.

Napoleon Hill: When your desires are strong enough, you will appear to possess superhuman powers to achieve.

Catch the drop or Drop the catch

At the age of 25, sitting in lush green lawn, relaxing, a cool gentle breeze making me more immobile. Someone whispered - Hey! I am here. I mystically asked- Who? Reply came - Opportunity! In no mood to leave the exquisite place I replied harshly - Sorry I am preoccupied. "Catch me or grab me, I will bring more joy and and delight than what you are experiencing now. I come only once, the one who grabs me, bear good fruits and one who loses me is left with arid and barren land to noodle around. Implant seeds now and enjoy shadow of trees in future." I just nodded and ignored. I kept on enjoying the weather and saw a rabbit doing the same. Next day, there was thunderstorm, sitting beside the closed window I saw the same rabbit running hither and thither looking for shelter. It was like an omen to me, making me realize if he had searched some shelter yesterday he would not have been in problem today. Its hard work of today that will bear fruits tom. I decided not to drop the catch but to catch every drop by both hands in future.

Today at the age of 70, sitting in lush green lawn, enjoying the shadow of trees and feeling the cool gentle breeze on my face as if taking away and evaporating all the sweat and pain that I bore. It was a feeling I never experienced before. It was the result of all the drops I caught, all the opportunities I grabbed, all the hard work I done. I was enjoying Sweetest fruits I bore in my whole life.On  this note ending it with a line from Hindi song-
Ek Baar Waqt Se Lamha Gira Kahin
Wahaan Dastan Mili Lamha Kahin Nahin
Thoda Sa Hasaake Thoda Sa Rulaake Pal Ye Bhi Jaanewala Hai

Dont let the Lamha fall nahin to bas dastan ban kar rah jayegi.
