Q.   Are desire , vision , dreams, goals , ambition the same or different?

Desire is a strong liking for some object that captures your attention. It is fuelled by the need to possess that object.

Vision is a well formulated plan one has for one's future. Vision is a vivid picture of what you want to be in a few years from now and how to achieve that. If you have a clear and strong vision you will work diligently towards attaining what you want. Vision is based on clarity of thoughts. Desire stems from attachment which is why “Isanodaiyinum Aasaiyai vidumin” (Tamil) – Transcend even attachment to the Almighty.

Dream is the outcome of a cherished desire - - when you are asleep, your subconscious mind that is awake concentrates on hidden desires. 

Goal is some very specific position or object that you wish to arrive at or gain in a few years from now. Vision crystallizes the efforts required to attain a stated level.

Ambition is again the product of a cherished desire - - the difference between dream and ambition is, when you are ambitious, you will do everything possible to get what you aim for. But you must take care not to harm anyone in the process. 

Dreams may not give you that impetus, so you may land up just dreaming and not attempting to realize your dreams. With focussed effort, you can translate your constructive dreams into reality.

Be a visionary.
