If I have to tell you about the biggest, the strongest, and the most impactful power there is in this universe, then it is the Power of Desire. It is the power of desire only that can make one’s mind wander here and there.

The desire for pleasure. The whole world is running after a desire of some kind or the other. The desire of doing something, the desire of becoming something, the desire of getting something, the desire of achieving something, the desire to not lose what you have, the desire to avoid pain.

Can you imagine what will happen if one hypothetically wipes out all the desires of any kind from every person in this world? The world will probably come to a halt. Everyone on this planet has some kind of desire and one can’t possibly subdue the power of desire that comes with it.

Once a desire firms its place in our minds then you can’t even imagine the power it brings with itself. The power of desire is what makes us push our boundaries, widen our potentials, and make us reach new heights. But it’s this very power of desire only that becomes the reason for one’s downfall and all the hardships one may have to face in life.

The power of desire is so strong that you won’t have to do anything, the desire itself will make you do the work for you. This is precisely why it becomes all the more important for us to choose our desires wisely. The right desire will make our lives, and the wrong ones can totally shatter us too.

Choose your Desires Wisely

First, we choose our desires, and then it’s the power of desire that does the rest of the job. If the desire is big enough — doesn’t matter if the thing is right or wrong — then it will generate pools of energy big enough in you to complete what you intend to do.

Likewise, if the desire isn’t big enough, then it isn’t gonna be enough to make you move a muscle which will lead to inaction and laziness. All the thoughts one has, it is based on what his desires are. Your thinking is based on whatever your underlying desires are in your life which is why it becomes imperative to choose desires intelligently.

Now if you wanna alter your thinking, then you gotta change the source of it aka Desires. Once you change your desires, your thoughts will change. The minute your thoughts change, your actions will change. And as you change your actions, your life will change. Simple.

If someone’s desire is only to just scrape out a living somehow, then you can imagine the kind of thoughts that would be floating around in his mind. His actions aren’t gonna be worth more than his thoughts. His desire will keep him from crossing that threshold that he formed in his mind.

So, it’s kinda a no-brainer that if our desires have the potential to change our lives and this whole world, and you alone have the power to choose them for yourselves, then it only makes sense to choose a desire that exceeds your own wildest imagination. Let me give it to you in one line.

Big Desires-> Big Thoughts-> Big Energy->Big Actions

Needless to say, the bigger your actions are gonna be, the better are the chances that you are gonna do something worthwhile with your life.

Desires Shape your Life

Whatever anyone is doing in this world, it is not them who are doing it, it is their desires that are making them do what they are doing. Some are doing magnanimous things because of their larger-than-life desires, while some are not because of their not-so-larger-than-life desires.

Our desires are merely using us as an instrument to express themselves. Our jobs are only as far as choosing them and imbibing them wholeheartedly, the rest of the work is done by our desires. Such is the power of desire. And I haven’t even told you the best part yet. You can always change your desires at any given time.

Start today, in fact, start right now, don’t delay it till the next moment. Whatever your desires were, multiply them by 100 and label them as your brand new desire. The point being, if it’s up to us to choose, we might as well choose big. It’s harmless.

Our desires are like seeds. Once you sow a neem seed, then you can’t possibly expect mangoes in return. You are gonna reap what you sow. Sow the right seeds in your heart — your brain will automatically start taking instructions from it, and naturally, your body will follow.

Your heart will become the source of energy, extracted by the mind, and ultimately utilized by the body. It is of paramount importance to let the right kind of seeds sow into your heart, to produce the required energy.

The purpose or the desire that you choose needs to be bigger than anything you ever imagined, in fact, it needs to be bigger than you yourself if you ever wanna do something bigger than what you already are.

Look at any great leaders of the past. Their desire was bigger than their own life. They all stood for something so magnanimous that it was their desires only that made them achieve all the magical feats that once looked impossible.

The power of desire is so strong that it will make your heart, mind, & body act according to the stature of the desire itself. If it’s big enough, it will automatically do all the work for you and you won’t be able to stop it even if you want to, because such is the power of desire.
