1) Desire is the starting point of all achievement according to Napoleon Hill. 2) Achieving goals is similar to sexual arousal which begins with thinking of something you desire intensely and increases blood flow and breathing as feelings grow stronger, ultimately leading to action. 3) Emotions play a key role in goal achievement as Aristotle said happiness is the void behind all actions and people seek pleasure and avoid pain universally.

14. Napoleon Hill says,” The starting point of all achievement is desire.”
• Sexual arousal consists of many lessons to train you how to become self-
motivated. It begins with thinking of some person you feel attractive.
Thoughts create dramatic images which guide to increase the intensity of
feelings. As your feelings become stronger, blood flow increases to different
body parts, breathing will be higher and your skin will be more responsive. If
you continue to throw yourself into these types of images, sooner or later
you have to take action on these feelings.
• Our desires and procedure to achieve the goal is very similar to arousal. We
can also develop some strong desire like physical arousal to attain our own
development goals.

15. Emotions play an essential role in goal achievement. After every goal we have
an emotional desire to be completed as Aristotle said the desire for happiness
is the void behind all actions. To get happiness is the final goal we all follow.
Everybody wants to get pleasure and avoid pain and painful situations. This is a
universal truth. No body likes to weep and to be sad. So the purpose of every
human action or behavior is to get or seek the pleasure.
• Graham Bell said, “What this power is I cannot say; all I know is that it exists
and it becomes available only when a man is in that state of mind in which
he knows exactly what he wants and is fully determined not to quit until he
finds it.”
• Abraham Lincoln said, “You can have anything you want if you want it badly
enough. You can be anything you want to be, do anything you set out to
accomplish if you hold to that desire with singleness of purpose.”

16. If you think about something in the past you wanted to get and nothing could
stopped you from getting it. That was the obsessive desire you need to attain
what you wanted. If any thing you wanted and didn’t achieve that, it may be
happened due to lack of your inside thirst for it. So you should try to know
exactly what you want, why you want and how to stimulate zeal to get that. This
is a world of constant change, external circumstances can be the cause of
delayed achievements, but passion with practical action can give guarantee to
your desire at last to turn into the results you want. I am sure this will be the
real state of success.
• Good Luck to Lit up the flame of your Desire to achieve your Goal!
