But I must focus and think and be positive and work hard towards my goal.

But you already (the gurus say this) have it, so why do any of that?

That is the lie (the secret) that all the gurus and followers want you to believe. If all the gurus tell us we must see it now and believe we have it now, then why must we focus and think and emote and find ways and try and struggle?

Why not say, I have it now and that's it.

So they can sell more systems of attainment.

If we are told (remember all self help gurus say this) that we must believe and imagine we already have our desire, then why do we need to do hardly anything? We don't, it's a lie, a con to sell DVDs and tapes, seminars and adwords. A lie to keep you coming back for more when your desires do not manifest.

So how do we become passionate about something to the point of attaining it? Realise that passion means desire, desire means lack, so to become passionate means you are constantly accepting you do not have it and never will.

Now you know why very passionate people are never guaranteed attainment

i don't think passion means desire. passion is that fire in you when you are doing something which you really love doing. usually that's something which you are naturally good at doing. once you allow your desire, self-interest and necessity to fuel it, the passion dies and you will be tied down by needs rather than love (or passion) for the activity.
