HUNGER AS A DRIVE.
...you will look for food as a miner that is searching for gold...
Hunger! Kaiii. Have you ever been so hungry, you felt like you would be able to eat a whole cow? At that moment, the cow looks as small as a crumb of bread that you could easily devour without hesitation.
There is one thing that hunger does I mean real hunger (the one that keeps you up at night. If you have ever come across a person who says he or she is hungry and wants to go and sleep, I am tempted to say that such is no real hunger). Real hunger keeps you awake. You will not be able to sleep, you will look for food as a miner that is searching for gold until there is something sufficient enough to quell this hunger in your stomach.
Considering what we have said above, What is Hunger? Hunger is a need or compelling desire for food. In our day to day life this hunger is critical for survival. Why? You may ask. Let's look at it this way, if you never got hungry, you will never desire food and if you don't desire food you will not eat and if you don't eat, you will not have the energy and nutrients that is supplied by food and at such a person will be weak, and will die of malnutrition because such a person was not hungry in the first place.
On a flip side, because you feel hungry, you desire food and you eat as a result of that desire which in turn gives you energy and nutrients, this makes you healthy and you survive. Hunger is key to survival. A world without hunger will be filled with weak and malnourished humans who are just moving around waiting for death. Infact, humanity would have probably gone extinct many centuries ago. Nature teaches us in this light that Hunger is a drive for survival.
Similarly, a person who is not hungry for something will not attain greater heights. In this context, hunger is any strong desire, or hunger is the capacity to have a desire for something. When you hear someone say, “I have a hunger to win” what comes into your mind? You sense a desperation, you sense an intense desire to win. What does this produce? It produces a person who is willing to do anything possible to win and because of that this person will train everyday, put in all the hard work he or she must put in just to ensure that the hunger to win is satisfied.
Hunger is a drive. Hunger can push a person beyond his or her limit if applied positively. From the analogy of a person with a hunger to win, you will realize that as this person gives himself or herself to hard work and daily training, such person becomes better, such person develops beyond the normal expectation. Why? Hunger!
In life we face so many issues, many challenges, many situations but to be able to accomplish some things that we want, we must be hungry. Hunger as a drive is a very potent weapon towards self improvement and accomplishment.
A person who wields the weapon of hunger will go beyond expectations, smash goals and achieve great success.
Think with me for some few seconds. What do you want to achieve? Hmmmmm. As you pictured it, can you say you are hungry to achieve it? Or is it a mere wish? How are you moving towards the accomplishment of that thing? Is your hunger pushing you beyond the usual to reach out for that thing?
I believe you have answers to those questions. If you and I will be able to use the weapon of hunger, what will be accomplished by us will be incredible, massive and astonishing.
As we go on in life let us take hunger as a drive and let it drive us to our destination of success or achievements.
Stay Hungry! Not just to survive but to become.
