The Burning Heart







They say if you can take a thought, and mix it with a burning heart and desire to do something, that you can accomplish anything.



You can't teach a burning heart. You either have it or you don't. But....you certainly can develop a burning heart. The burning desire to succeed is in us all....but if the seed is flooded out by the negative thoughts of society, if it is blown away by the sweeping winds of change, if it is swallowed hole by the birds of in opportunity....you stand the chance of having that fire extinguished.

May I offer a suggestion? For once in your life quit listening to the negative voices and tune your ear to the positive air waves. Why take criticism and advice from losers? If you are receiving advice from someone...consider this....ask yourself: Is this a person whom I want to be like? Do they earn the income I want to make? Are they at a place in their life that I want to be at? If not...why take advice or criticism from them?

Simply walk away.....because you cannot put your burning heart at jeopardy.




In the days of the Vikings, they would pull their ships to shore and burn them. The Generals would than pronounce to the warriors, "The ships are gone. There is only one way to get back home and that is to win this battle or war!" "There is no going back....only forward!"
It's the sink or swim mentality. All or nothing, win or lose. The only option for survival is to WIN!

The burning ships translated themselves onto the hearts of the Viking warriors and turned into a massive burning fire within their hearts! I wish the same onto you!

In closing, a famous track star won the gold medal in high jump. It totally amazed the reporters and spectators because this track champion only had ONE LEG. How was it possible that a one legged man could win the gold medal in the high jump? So the reporters asked him. He replied, "I threw my heart over the bar....and my body followed"






You can do anything in life and in business if you give it enough heart! Don't stop, Don't whine, Don't quit....keep driving on with a burning desire to win...and you will!
