Quote by Robert Collier

The first principle of success is desire -- knowing what you want. Desire is the planting of your seed.

The first principle of success is desire -- knowing what you

Summary

Desire is the fundamental catalyst for success. It encompasses the clear understanding of one's objectives and aspirations, serving as the initial step towards achieving them. Like a seed planted in fertile soil, desire is the starting point of growth and development. Without a strong desire to pursue a particular goal or dream, progress is unlikely to materialize. Just as a seed needs nourishment and care to flourish, desire must be fueled by passion, dedication, and hard work to bring about the fulfillment of one's ambitions.

The real hues are delicate, and need a clearer vision.
