Whether or not you will be successful is already pre-determined before you even begin. If your desire is weak, further down the road you may quit and let temporary failures get the best of you. If your desire is strong, however, you will adapt the necessary winning attitude that will keep you on track no matter how many times you may fail.
If I could only give one piece of advice to someone on how to successfully build muscle mass, I would tell them to develop a burning desire inside until it becomes an obsession. All other principles of success will not nearly be as effective if you don't first develop a burning desire to build muscle.
With this being true, you can even go as far to say that whether or not you will be successful is already pre-determined before you even begin. If you don't build enough hunger in the beginning, you will much more likely fall in to your inevitable temptations of quiting or taking days off. If you have a strong enough hunger and you have the tenacity to not quit, eventually you will develop the rest of the necessary qualities and continue making progress week after week. Can you see how important it is to have a burning desire when you want to achieve something big?
So what exactly is desire? Desire is the driving force of all other key aspects of success. Desire will supercharge your motivation, it will inspire faith, it will shun out all thoughts of failure and of giving up and allow you to persist whatever it is you are reaching for until you get it. Your concentration is multiplied and your determination and focus increase tenfold. It will blow away all conceivable limits within your mind.
Those who have a burning hunger to succeed whether it was born within them or developed are the people who truly make a name for themselves. When you turn a simple "want" or "wish" into a burning desire, then you have begun something very special. Maintain that burning desire by reading your goals daily and constantly picture yourself in the future and how you want to look or how strong you want to be. Approach each rep of each set of each workout with this burning desire, and you will accomplish more results then you ever thought possible.
The best way to spark desire and fuel it into a burning obsession is by stimulating your mind about your desire every second of every day. You can only do this with your thinking. Think about what you want to achieve every moment of the day, and surround yourself with people who have similar desires as you, as well as other forms of inspiration such as books, magazines, movies, etc.
There are many important keys to success in weight training, or anything for that matter. Things such as concentration, persistence, hard work, careful planning, specialized knowledge, faith, and so on. I could spend hours writing about each one of these, but when you truly have a burning desire, all the rest of these things fall into place. Focus on your desire to get in shape and build muscle fast, cultivate it daily and you will be on your way to inevitable success.
