★How To Develop A Burning Desire

A burning desire for a goal can be developed. Here are some articles I found to help us develope our “wants” into “burning desires”.

Cultivating Burning Desire
5 Foolproof Ways to Produce a Burning Desire for Your Goals
Do you Have the Burning Desire to Lose Weight or Reach any Goal?

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.
— Gandalf, J.R.R. Tolkien
I’m Alright
Life Less Ordinary

I just started reading through the 1st article.
In the middle it says:
…knowing with certainty that success is as inevitable as the sunrise.

This is so true. I think everything is only depends on that, to believe, to know that it will happen. When you believe that you will have what you want, you wont even need to struggle to get it.

…what a wonderful world….

Long term perspective keeps my burning desire alive and well. Burning desire is the easiest thing I create.

The more I visualize how I want it to be, and what life would be without my clearly stated goals as completed, the more I create the desire to ‘go for it’

ex.-> It’s not acceptable to be unhealthy because I want all of the below list in my life.

WHY BE HEALTHY?
22 REASONS WHY.

1. Vitality
2. An abundance of energy
to do everything you want to do
3. Happiness
4. Love and closeness with others
5. Satisfaction and fufillment in life
6. Healing symptoms and disease
7. Symptoms and disease going way
8. Relief from the suffering that goes with the symptoms of disease.
9. Inner Peace
10. Being symptom and disease free
11. Mental focus, memory, and clarity (no brain fog)
12. Being awake and fully alive everyday (not dragging through stuff and surviving)
13. Being present and having the ability to be with people.
14. No worry or fear.
15. Being confident in yourself
16. Being complete and happy
17. The ability to deal with issues that arise simply and with ease
18. Having better health now, for security for yourself and your family later.
19. More time to do what you want
20. Simpler choices
21. Looking great, feeling good, reducing fat, and having tons of energy
22. Being satisfied, and not being hungry all of the time.

My list comes from something called “ How to Have a Healthy Lifestyle with a Busy Schedule” by Sabrina Ryan and Anne Kowlaski, OCPA, Spring 2009

I’m not sure where I got the following. I handwrote it once in my notebook for exercise motivation and didn’t write the source-> I think it’s from Dr. Mercola’s website. It helps me. I hope it does good things for you too. (:

When the need to achieve a goal is so strong that you have a ‘Burning desire’— this desire burns all the doubts and without doubt success is achieved.
I would like to share a personal experience in this context.
My maternal grandfather is 99 yrs young (that’s what he says about himself) and has a burning desire to live for a few more years. His desire is not just to live but to live fully. At this age he is totally independent and does his walk and yoga regularly. There is nothing that he says he wont/cant eat. He eats all that is vegetarian and home cooked.
This January he fell down and got a gash on his left shin. It didnt bleed but a liquid started to ooze out. He tried several treatments, visited the best doctor in the country and everyone told him that an incision was needed and maybe his lower limb would have to be chopped off!! For a self respecting man, who has done all his work himself it was too much to bear. Having fought the secong WW the soldier in him rose and he vowed that he would overcome. By his sheer determination/ burning desire to get well and his affirmations he is totally healthy and cured. The wound has healed and the docs are amazed.
This is burning desire. A strong desire can make any impossible as possible.
All adversities can turn into opportunities of faith and conviction if the desire is so strong that its flames melt all other visions. The one pointedness can bring success in any field.
God is kind and he looks after all of us. All are special for Him.

Burning desire interesting topic for me the last day or so. I’m finding what keeps my burning desire is to keep planning w/the big picture in mind. And when the big picture changes, as life does->step back, stand up on an imaginary ladder, breathe, pray, and plan some more.

As you are constantly revising your plans to accomodate change, keep doing what you can, on a detailed check list. Checking things off in the direction you are headed towards will light up a burning desire everytime(:

When we have a burning desire to achieve a particular goal then the whole universe conspires to help us in achieving it. This is THE SECRET. The power to manifest all our dreams into reality is in our hands—- minds. Only we can make things happen for us.
The dreams come true when the fire is so strong that it engulfs us completely.
Have the desire to achieve and come what may you will succeed. no other incentive is important if our desire burns strongly.

We all live under the same sky, but we don’t all have the same horizon.

I now create a burning desire within myself for all the good things I want.

 

 My mind is firmly fixed and focused on exactly what I want.

The more my thoughts dwell on the completion of my goals, the stronger my desire becomes for their fulfillment.

My definition of greatness

is to be greater than your environment,

to be greater than your body,

and to be greater than time.

And if you do, you will be great.

I mean, that’s it!” – Dr. Joe Dispenza
