Success Curriculum

Think And Grow Rich
Step One Desire

In Napoleon Hill’s success curriculum, Think and Grow Rich, it is not accidental that he begins with desire, as success always begins with desire.

Only a burning, all-consuming, fervent and passionate desire will produce the exceptional results that make up true success.

Wanting is best understood by its second meaning in the dictionary: lack.

To want for something is to lack something and so long as you merely want success, you will lack success.

Wanting is mere wishful thinking, desire, on the other hand, is an extremely potent force. It is a supreme motivator. It is a metaphysical principle of creation.

Desire is an energetic emanation of the human spirit that enacts the Law of Attraction, desire is the metaphysical equivalent of gravity, desire draws to you the thing desired, or the elements that will constitute the thing desired.

Desire is the fuel that ignites the fire that transmutes thoughts into things.

The sad truth about most people who claim to want success, is that they actually do not desire success, what they desire is comfort and security.

Following a success curriculum often demands that you give up comfort and security, in order to gain rewards greater than mere creature comforts and minor financial security.

If you just want to be financially successful, you will keep wanting and wanting to no avail, until, you graduate from mealy wanting, to truly desiring success, and, as a result, you will almost magically be catapulted into the financial status you desire status.

In Napoleon Hill’s success curriculum, the method by which desire for riches can be transformed into its financial equivalent, consists of six definite, practical steps.

First. Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire. It is not sufficient merely to say, "I want plenty of money." Be definite as to the amount. (There is a psychological reason for definiteness, which will be described in a subsequent chapter).

Second. Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire. (There is no such reality as "something for nothing.)

Third. Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire.

Fourth. Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action.

Fifth. Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you intend to acquire, name the time limit for its acquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the money, and describe clearly the plan through which you intend to accumulate it.

Sixth. Read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once just before retiring at night, and once after arising in the morning.

As you read, see, feel and believe yourself.

Read as if you are already in possession of the money.

You must have or develop a burning passion for success.

Without it, you are highly unlikely to achieve it.

Get passionate or stay home.

This is critical…your desire must be specific.

It must be attached to a clear and specific ideal, a clear and consistent thought picture of what success means to you.
