I have been doing a bit of personal development reading an awesome book recently. This book has allowed me to see myself yet also given me insights into who I am as a person. I have seen myself been drawn out a bit recently. The one thing that I have learned is how to stick up for myself in a fight; I have had to learn that. It is what happens, for me I have learnt that I am the type of person who is comfortable being surrounded by family. Despite our history, I am someone who just gives from the heart. Typical me, I know that owing to what I have been like for years. It is who I am as a person; I have had volunteer roles since I was 16.
Yet that is not the reason why I choose desire as today’s topic. There are a couple of states of desire; desire is wanting something essentially, there is desire and a burning desire. It is the burning desire, which helps people to succeed most in life. What is the major difference between both desire and burning desire; well with a burning desire, you will stop at nothing to achieve it. I have heard something great a number of times and it is true of burning desire. Once you have chosen your mountain in life “It’s my mountain in life and you will either see me at the top waving my flag or dead on the side cause I am not coming back – Jim Rohn – Business Philosopher”. It is too true, basically its saying I am going to achieve this goal or die trying, when you have that will to succeed, it is saying ok no matter what I am going to make this happen. The person often comes from the position of ok nothing is going to stop me from achieving this goal no matter what.
Recently I finally realised that I had a burning desire of my own to be a father, for me I know I can be a great father. I know that I can use my own experience from my upbringing to raise a child of my own and show them love. Having been brought up in a broken home where love was very much hardly there, anyway there is nothing I can do to change that. Yet I can make sure that I teach my own kids the value of love, love them for who they are as people. Encourage and support them in their goals and dreams.
Having come to the discovery that I am happy being surrounded by loved ones. Even if they are not good for me makes it very hard yet it is what happens. I know it is time to move on and walk a road that has to be done. For me there are many things, which are important to me, yet none as important as being surrounded by those that matter most to me. I always will give from the heart; money is no object to me. I know that it is time for me to become a father and move into the next phase of my life. The area where I can love someone else and make them feel special.
I have seen a side of me that shows me the type of father I will be and how I shall treat my partner in life. All I can say is it is great for me; I look forwards to that day when I do become a father and I know deep inside myself I will be an awesome father.
