The first step towards wealth is desire.
Desire by the Webster’s dictionary is to long or hope for, exhibit or feel desire for. Synonyms to desire are, to wish, want,crave or covet. Desire is literally the first step in the right direction towards wealth and success. You have to really, really want wealth and riches deep down inside. Your desire is the fuel that feeds the fire for your drive. It will help you overlook any major or minor obstacles that might come in your way.
“Allow yourself no retreat” is what Napoleon Hill had mentioned in Think and Grow Rich. You either win or die. That is the mindset that you have to have when you are going after your dreams. There is no such thing as losing, you die and that’s it. Having a ”fight to the death” mentally is essential when you are battling towards your goals and your opponent being “time”. Conquer time by using diligence as your weapon. Time waits for no one so use time to your advantage.
Only wishing and dreaming of wealth will not bring you wealth. Craving wealth with a do or die mind state of obsession, with the right game plan will get you there. Because dreams with no actions remain dreams. Putting dreams to action and not recognizing failure will jump start any dream into an reality. That is the beauty to life, if you can believe it then you can achieve it. Recondition your mind into the positive and optimistic ways of thinking to put with your desire. Doing so will, amplify your level of success creating a strong persistence in getting things done. Having persistence that sees success only, will surely bring you wealth.
Here are a few steps that I have learned over the time that has help turn my desire into reality. I call them directions to success.
1. Say what you want to be. If you want to be a millionaire say it over and over to yourself to get your mind into subconsciously believing it.
2. Be willing you sacrifice somethings for want you want. You have to give to get. You might have to give up some leisure time to begin to get results.
3. Have a time frame in the time you want to have accomplished your goals. Having a time frame really helps. It keeps pushing you.
4. Now,this is important. Write out your goals and how you are going to get there. It’s called vision mapping. Plan your life like a vacation. Most people plan out their vacations better than they plan out there lives. Think about that.
5. Read it out loud, I know this is the part where most people tend to forget about, but you have to remember that words are powerful. When you read it out loud it begins to make you feel better, almost as if you have already accomplished your goals already. This step really helps speed up results.
It starts with desire, your compass towards wealth.

i believe that desire is the the first step towards wealth.. if you don’t have desire then you won’t have the dream or goal to reach for the wealth that you want to have.. So therefore desire is the number one tool in achieving wealth..
