People often ask the question, “How do I change things? Is there some deep dark secret to success? Do we search and struggle to find the keys to open the doors of prosperity and happiness? Do we seek the path of contentment and satisfaction? Are we always looking for the end of the rainbow to find the fortune that will free us from the bonds of life? Are the daily pressures more than we feel we can bear? Do we feel there is no hope of ever escaping the life we have been given? What is one thing each one of us can control? Is there anything beside ourselves that we can change? If I am the only thing I can change, then what about me can I change? How often do we wish things were different or hope things will improve or worry things will turn out differently. All of these actions won’t make any difference in any situation. They are all passive actions; they are based on our emotions. Thoughts and hopes are not going to change the circumstances and these only increase the helplessness we feel. Even if I change things about me, if I don’t carefully guard them they can revert back to the way they were. So how do I accomplish the changes I want to make? There is only one way to make these changes and keep them changed. It is by me changing my desires for things to be different. We must create within ourselves the desire and determination to make the changes we want. We must truly desire to change things in the direction, which is pleasing to us. We must completely desire things to be the way we want them and then take the necessary actions to bring those changes about. That is where the determination comes into play. Desire by it’s self won’t do it alone but we must also DO whatever it takes to accomplish our goals. Desire is the drive determination is the accomplishing. Desire without determination is still no different than a wish. So in order to achieve our tasks and goals we must determine what we desire and create the unyielding determination to achieve it, no matter what gets in our way.
