" HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL,BUT SUCCESS SPRINGS INTERNAL " BY GO BLANSON

When I was little, people would always go around asking," What are little girls made of?" The answer was always," Sugar and Spice and Everything nice, that's what little girls are made of ! Next, they would ask the question, "What are little boys made of ? The answer was always," Snakes and Snails and Puppy dog Tails, that's what little boys are made of ! Lol. Those old memories made me think about another question, " Where does SUCCESS come from?" Every since I can remember, people have been talking about SUCCESS in many different ways. Not too long ago, I heard a man named Earl Nightingale say that Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal or ideal. Now, recently in a book that I read, it said that SUCCESS is a BY-PRODUCT of WHO WE ARE( who we become ).The author said it like this," The cause of SUCCESS is always in the person who SUCCEEDS[ the cause always lies in the individual, and nowhere else ! ]. Furthermore,this is one of the main reasons why most people fail to obtain SUCCESS. They continue to search for SUCCESS " externally," instead of seeking it " internally." The late Jim Rohn often said it this way," Success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person YOU BECOME." Here's an example of what I mean. Consider a little tiny acorn [ an oak tree seed ]. Although the seed is the Oak Tree to be, yet, it is not! Why not, you ask? Well, the acorn has to " GO " through some things and " GROW " through some things, before it can reach the size and maturity of a towering Oak Tree. Also, the acorn has to be planted in good soil, and get the proper amount of sun and water.However,the acorn is able to attract everything that it needs to help it become an Oak Tree. It's not until after the acorn " GROWS " and " MATURES " that it can actually become the " MIGHTY OAK " it was meant to be. Similarly, we too must " GO " and " GROW " through some things before we can reach the " MATURITY " to become the " SUCCESS " that we were meant to be all along. By growing and maturing, we too can attract everything we need to become the person we were meant to BE. Just in case some of you are wondering just what I feel is the true cause of a person’s SUCCESS. I feel that the true cause of one’s SUCCESS is the INFINITE POWER within each person. Where does the POWER come from? It has been said that back of every DESIRE is the POWER to accomplish the DESIRE. Additionally, Napoleon Hill said that DESIRE is the starting point of all achievement( big and small). In Mr. Hill’s book, “ Think and Grow Rich,” { in the chapter on DESIRE } he listed SIX specific steps that one can take to TRANSMUTE their DESIRE for something into its PHYSICAL EQUIVALENT.
