Inspired by Chapter 2 of Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
What force enables the apple seedling to ATTRACT the
RESOURCES it needs to become a mature apple tree?
It has a “PASSION” to produce apples: That is its
DEFINITE, singular PURPOSE.
Not pears, oranges, bananas, or anything else – APPLES!
This is built into its DNA, along with the plans on how
to do it.
Is the tree’s purpose to make money?
NO! …APPLES!
People may purchase some of its apples throughout the
years, and money will be made as a result,
But the tree is laser-focused on making apples. Apples
are its WHY!
People may BENEFIT from consuming the apples, and for
that they will pay. The money is a way of measuring the
tree’s PRODUCTION and the BENEFITS it has provided
others.
I was once confused about something:
In Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill talks about money
consciousness, the burning desire to attract money, and
the FORMULA for manifesting it.
But, in Success in 10 Steps, Michael Dlouhy talks about
a WHY that will make You cry, and it has NOTHING to do
with making money!
Huh?
Well, OK – gold cannot give You a hug. Gold cannot look
at You with tears in its eyes and thank You for
impacting its life.
I get it!
I’ll stop mincing words now. I am both a spiritual
being and an organism.
I, the spirit, have an INNER PURPOSE, a DRIVING FORCE,
a WHY. This is what really motivates me to do all I do.
I SERVE – Gold cannot.
I, the organism, have gifts I can employ to BENEFIT
others who will compensate me. This is my OUTER
PURPOSE.
When my Outer Purpose is in HARMONY with my Inner
Purpose, then my Outer Purpose is infused with PASSION.
A chef without PASSION for food, and pleasing others
with it, will never create great restaurants.
I must take inventory:
1. What is my SINGULAR PURPOSE, the one that DEFINES my
BEING? (No tears, no PASSION!)
2. What gifts was I given in this life?
3. How can I best use those gifts for the BENEFIT of
others?
4. What is my specific plan of action to utilize those
gifts?
5. What specific goals do I have to measure my
PRODUCTION and keep me ENTHUSIASTIC?
