Desire is the fundamental building block of success. You'll get mediocre results unless a desire for achievement powers you.

The author recommends having a strategy to reach your desired goals. Making your objectives a top priority is key. First, write down the amount of money you want to achieve. Then, determine what you are willing to sacrifice to reach that goal. After that, set a date to achieve your goal and put together a detailed plan. Write down your plan and date, and read the statement aloud once each morning and night until you have it memorized. Once memorized, continue reading it twice daily, morning and night.

While the last point may seem extreme, only those who became “money conscious” accumulate riches – meaning the mind desires wealth so much that it already possesses it. “If you do not see great riches in your imagination, you will never see them in your bank account.” All achievement begins with a burning desire for something definite and a willingness to get up and keep at it in the face of failure. And for that you need faith as well.

As a state of mind, faith can be induced or reached through assurance or repeated instructions to the subconscious mind. It is the starting point of success and the glue that holds it all together. By getting rid of negative emotions such as doubt or fear and embracing positive emotions, faith can be a useful tool in various ways. Remember that faith is an antidote to failure, as only after believing in yourself will others also believe in you. Keep in mind that employers seek optimistic and confident people who can make a positive impact.

To build self-confidence and faith, you should make up a statement which includes affirmations to acknowledge certain things about yourself. Repeat them daily to subconsciously influence your thoughts and actions. Promise yourself to act and keep in mind that your thoughts will gradually transform into a physical reality. Gain an understanding of the profound significance of self-confidence and promise to spend at least 10 minutes a day working on this. Remember always to keep striving towards your goals.

We can convince ourselves of our success or failure through mental reinforcement. The principle of autosuggestion allows us to communicate our desires directly to the subconscious mind with unshakable faith. By repeatedly affirming our conscious desires and thoughts to ourselves, we can exercise complete control over the material that reaches our subconscious mind.
