When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.
Paulo Coelho
About this quote
A quiet, well aimed line from Paulo Coelho on ambition, discipline, and the long arc of building something. It reads quickly but lingers, which is exactly what you want from a quote you plan to see dozens of times a day.
Success quotes are most useful when they cut against comfort. The best ones remind you that the gap between where you are and where you want to be is usually closed by small, unglamorous, repeated choices. Pair it with a wallpaper that matches the mood, or save it as plain text. Either way, having it on your screen is the point.
