It is said that,
“When you truly want something desperately, the universe conspires to make your dreams come true!”
Incredible it may look, but it is true for every successful individual on the planet Earth. Every successful person will tell you that every day they visualized their success.
It was the power of their belief that made them work hard and think of ways and means to go through their journey of success. Once you start conceiving and believing in your success, you can see the transformation.
Every effort leads to the right direction. If a door closes, several new doors open up. A positive attitude makes us look at the doors, otherwise they would not have been visible.

Nearer home, there is a true story about a young woman who conquered the tallest mountain peak in the world. A feat which is near-impossible even for the healthy and fit, and this young lady had lost one of her leg in an accident. Yet, it did not deter her from relinquishing her dream and she went on to achieve it.
In any field of life, if the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve it.

Brain and Mind are not the same. Brain is a tangible object that can be seen and touched. It is the physical organ made of tissues and blood vessels, but mind is something much more profound and superior.
Your mind holds the keys to your thoughts, belief, attitude, feelings and many non-tangibles that are transcendental.
Our mind is very powerful, and controls all our actions.

It will influence your choices towards those things only that help in achieving your vision.
It will not let anything, like a temptation to digress you from your path. It will empower you to overcome any constraints that come in your way. Like a flowing river, it will find its own course. That is the power of your mind!
Once you get your mind to that stage of firm conviction and belief, you can achieve it. There is absolutely no doubt that “Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”
