Napoleon Hill, the author of the all-time best seller, "Think and Grow Rich," said the starting point of all success is what he called, definiteness of purpose. According to Mr. Hill, definiteness of purpose means defining what you truly desire, as opposed to just something that would be nice to have, do, or achieve.

Many people fail to achieve their dreams because they fail to identify their true desire. When your desire is identified, you will be motivated to overcome obstacles when life happens.
