| It doesn't matter if you are the ONLY one |
You’ve gotta be hungry for something if you’re going to get it. you’ve gotta want it as bad as you want to breathe. – Les Brown
It is a one thing to have a dream, a completely
different thing to have the hunger and drive to achieve it no matter the
stakes. I have set countless goals which I was certain (at the time of setting)
that I had all it may take to achieve them only to fall short of hunger and
drive the next morning. Sometimes I wonder what motivated me in the first
place.
Hunger and
drive are two different pals always travelling together. Hunger is the pain
within that will not leave you comfortable until a goal is accomplished while
drive is what pushes you, your motivation to get going towards the goal. Hunger
and drive are differ for different goals but the principles behind
generating them are the same.
1. Ensure your goal is within the boundaries of your
burdens. Goals outside burdens may never be achieved. The burden keeps you in it when the chips are down.
2. Do not exaggerate the problem. Problems have a special
way of looking bigger than they actually are. Don’t join in exaggerating the problems confronting you.
3. Clearly understand the gains of victory and fix your
attention on them. Victory will motivate you. Keep your gaze fixed on it. It is
a common idea for military commanders to ensure their soldiers have their eyes
fixed on victory, its profits, and nothing else if they would stand a chance.
4. Recall past victories and the feelings you had. You have
succeeded before. Everyone has. Recall your past victories. None is too small. If
it happened before it will happen again!
5. Count God in; He has your back. Don’t rely solely on
your strength or what you know – they will fail you. God is able and willing to
ensure you succeed.

If you would
align yourself with these five principles you will find that you have the
hunger and drive to accomplish every goal you set.
