Stimulation

"Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything."
Napoleon Hill

The other night, I dropped off my roommate at a well-known club in downtown San Diego.  Traffic clogged the arteries lining the bars, restaurants and clubs as girls in their short skirts and guys in their black sweaters crawled the concrete sidewalks under the yellow lit night.  Taxi cabs left and right and the occasional wine bottle shared amongst a group of friends enhanced the intense scene.  These youthful crowds are now convening together under the drug induced atmosphere to share moments and memories, for some, again.  


Driving through downtown and observing these social 'norms' got me thinking.  All these mid-20's individuals have so much fire, so much passion in their lives right now.  They are living their lives out by roaming the streets at the dark of night and finding new companions to share memories.  They possess the desire to enjoy the atmosphere and surround themselves with people like themselves.  When they go out to have fun, they have fun.  


This idea suddenly made me reflective about desires outside enjoyments.  When one is driven mad with desire, whether it is for love or success, there is no stopping them, not even the impossible.  Human-beings have an uncanny ability to tap into their capabilities to achieve their goal, especially when driven with a fiery passion.  If every individual could engage this emotion, then success would be second nature to all of us; however, unfortunately most people do not reach this point until inspired with a vision, given a taste of the glory, of success.  Inspiration, stimulation is lacking in our present time.  Those who stare blankly at a chalkboard without a vision, a future career, a dream is prone to depression and lack of motivation.  It is extremely important to grow up knowing that anything is possible, that any dream envisioned by a single man or woman can be the hopes and dreams of others.
  
In order to achieve this form of motivation, though, others whom seen the potential in others must inspire them to aspire.  One cannot manifest excitement for their desires by themselves, but by receiving acknowledgment from others that their desires may be realized.

Go out and inspire others.  Open doors in their lives so they too may open the door for others.
