Dreams are like the moon glimmering brightly amidst a dark night— it allows us to continue the path we’ve undertaken. Perhaps, dreams are what make us sustain life by moving ahead. We have contemplated about it for years and we’ve always yearned on the process of grasping the fantasy, finally. According to Will Smith, “The greatest dreams are always unrealistic”. So we have to dream bigger, even though it may seem unbelievable.
So, how do we always begin with seizing the dream? Go to school, finish college, get a good job, earn an income, have savings, spend money and be happy. These would be a usual answer we could hear from people who don’t actually have that ultimate goal. For them, having an average income is already a dream come true. But to people who see financial stability (in a form of business) as an ultimate triumph— aggressiveness is necessary.
These principal laws were the idea of my idolized entrepreneur but I revised for it for a simplified explanation.
These are the laws you must utilize:
The Law of Clarity
When we were young, we always believed we could be everything that we wanted when we grow up. We even thought of being Scientists, right? But at some point of time, our dreams change and our passions divert. When we grow up, we don’t believe already that we could do the biggest profession but we believed that we could almost do everything!
We aimed to multi-task at almost everything but the truth is we cannot keep all the plates spinning at a time. If we really want to be successful, we should be clear in our goals— the greatest dream. If you target that one greatest dream for most of your time, success would be nearing and come knocking at your door in a short period of time.
The Law of Focus
There are a lot of people who aimed for a great dream but it seems to take a lifetime to achieve the goal. Why? Because they don’t learn to focus. Any disturbance that comes along the way makes them weak and helpless. Those people likely do not look directly at their strengths as a human and just gives up everything. The more focused you are in one thing, the closer and quicker you are to the reality of your dreams.
For example, you have dreamed of a sustainable weight loss and promise yourself you to start it the next day but you end up with those junk foods again. You fail for your attempt because you direct your mind on the “enemies” of your goal and not on the main goal. If you lend your focus to the main target, then focus is there. It’s always as same as doing business, your center of attention must be the business plan- not merely its hindrances.
The Law of Intensity
We haven’t yet heard of a person who has succeeded in life by weak and vulnerable. Successful people are always passion-driven and intense! Most of the times, their passion keeps them moving every day and growing. If you love what you are doing, then you must not be like stagnant water on the streets— lifeless, useless, and most likely future-less.
In case you don’t want to be successful, then don’t be intense.
The Law of Action
If you always utter but do not act, better not talk at all. Successful people do not just lie under a guava tree, open their mouth, and wait for the fruit to fall down to their mouth. They find a tree, they climb it no matter how steeply the branches get, they climb hard for the fruit because they believe it is the worthy goal.
If reaching the ultimate triumph is your goal, then starting to act right now is the best thing to do. Nowadays, Time isn’t gold— it has upgraded to diamonds.
The Law of Hustle
This certain law is like knocking doors to your dreams. Whenever you find good opportunities that would lead to your dreams’ success, grasp them all and make it an instrument. You cannot find a good way for the finalization of your dreams without testing the opportunities that surround it.
If you don’t knock, doors will not actually open its room for success for you.
The Law of Gestation
This law explains the perfect timing we must put to our plans. It says that 90% of success comes from an excellent preparation and 10% comes from action. If we know when the perfect timing of our dream should be hit then we exactly execute this law.
Take for example, you are planning to have an ice cream business and you plan to make it happen as immediate as it could be. You believed that to make it happen in a matter of a short time, you will be successful and you will take hold of greater profits quickly. So, even if it’s winter days, you still push through that idea. Without the realization that Ice cream business could be great if it could be opened during the summer season.
Perfect timing is everything.
The Law of Integrity
The goal of merely obtaining a huge profit from an enterprise is not an ideal thing. You must put a soul to your business and that is Love— thus, love and aggressiveness come together.
As an example, a businessman starts a cheap business of course by having cheap products. Those cheap products are used by a lot of people in their everyday lives and find it as a commodity already. They don’t know that those cheap products and later on, those certain consumers have developed an illness with regards to that cheap product they’re using— which is unknowingly, “fake”.
If you are a businessman who possesses integrity, you wouldn’t make money by destroying your fellow human’s lives. You must create an enterprise that helps and not ruin their being. Love must come into your business—turning it a sustainable one.
The Laws and the Ultimate Triumph
This connection between the laws and the ultimate triumph is greatly affecting our relationship with success. If we have the weak grip with the principle laws, we are likely to keep ourselves too distant to the triumph we have been longing for.
It’s the main reason why I have tackled this because I believe that those who journey in the field of entrepreneurship must be able to determine what it takes to be a wise businessman in the starting point. It always goes with strategies that make the path less difficult to walk on. You may think that running through the success path is the quickest way to reach the dreams but we could always have a walk. Walking slowly to the desired path with all the seven laws and right approaches will soon pay off and make the impossible— the reachable dreams.
