The Missing Success Ingredient

 "Agar kisi cheez ko dil se chaaho to puri kayanat usey tumse milane ki koshish mein lag jaati hai. " - Shahrukh Khan in his movie, Om Shanti Om

'When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.' - Paulo Coelho in his book, The Alchemist

You must have surely heard either one or both of these. You might also believe in it.

I do. I have seen it in action at many different times in life. I have the belief backed by real-life observation and experience to back it up.

BUT, the quote is incomplete and misleading in a way. The quote jumps from 'desire' to 'achievement' without really touching upon the 'action' in between.

The Desire needs to be strong enough to manifest real, concrete ACTION in the right direction. The desire will also create the right attitude and mindset which will further enhance the action - along with creativity, out of box thinking, cooperation, collaboration etc. which will ultimately result in achievement.

Mere desire is not going to help. Closing your eyes and seeing things happening (Visualization) is part of the process but is not going to help if you stop there.

If you desire something, don't wait for the universe/kayanat/world/people to conspire and help you achieve it. Kick off your own actions first and inspire others to help you.

Without strong deterministic action that originates from you; success will only be the dream, desire and visualization - not a reality.

So wake up from your proverbial sleep. Smell the roses. Get into action.

Thinking or dreaming about transforming your life and achieving all your goals is not going to help one bit. You got to take action.

Make plans, create milestones, get help, approach people, and find a mentor and/or coach who will help you get there. Build a purpose-specific network along with your regular network. Start doing something every day that takes you one step forward. Just do it.

And then watch the magic happen ... in slow motion !!
