Keep Your Dreams Alive
Life is filled with its ups and downs, and sometimes things can definitely feel overwhelming. Sometimes it feels like everything is stacked against us. And if that is where we focus our thoughts, it can lead us to feel like giving up and giving in. We feel like we are not worthy and deserving of anything good. We begin to self-sabotage our efforts. We begin to give in to fear, uncertainty and self-doubt.
Whatever we have going on in our lives, we must remember that life happens 'for' us, not 'to' us. How we respond, with our thoughts, beliefs and actions is critical. It's important that we continue to dare to dream, and dream big. Dreams help guide us, pull us through and keep us focused on aiming for bigger goals.
It is okay to dream. In fact it is necessary. Without dreams, we have no ambitions to chase after, no goals to attain. Everything begins in the heart and mind. You must start and end with your dreams. The greater your dream, the greater your belief must be. The greater your belief, the greater your plan to achieve must be. The greater your plan to achieve, the greater your ability to risk and take action must be. The greater your risk and action, the greater your results will be. The greater your results, the greater your dreams will be!
Never stop dreaming. Follow your heart and your passions. Make them crystal clear in your mind. If you're having trouble staying focused on them, they're probably not big enough or compelling enough to motivate you and help pull you through. So make it bigger and more meaningful. Make sure you know why you want to achieve it. Knowing your why will give new meaning to the actions you need to take, in order to achieve it.
Believe in yourself and in your dreams. Believe you can and will achieve them. Believe you deserve to achieve them. Now DO something about it! Small achievable wins can catapult you on your way.
Proven ways to make your dreams come true:
- Don't let circumstances talk you out of it.
- Don't sell yourself short.
- Realize that every bad event is all part of the process.
- When you fail, go back and try again.
- Don't be afraid to try something new or something else.
- Commit to the long term process.
- Be patient.
- Stay positive.
- Opportunities are always available.
- You have to believe you are capable of making it happen.
Every great achievement began in the mind of one person. They dared to dream, to believe that it was possible. Take some time to allow yourself to ask “What if?” Think big. Don’t let negative thinking discourage you. You want to be a “dreamer.” Dream of the possibilities for yourself, your family and for others. If you had a dream that you let grow cold, re-ignite the dream! Fan the flames. Life is too short to let it go. Focus in on your dreams. You have the right to believe in them. Then release the brakes and go! With applied action you have the right to believe you will achieve your dreams and goals.
Believe you can have the life of your dreams, it’s as simple as that. Follow your passion, find your purpose, create a plan, begin your pursuit, have perseverance and through it all persist! You can begin creating the life you deserve, now. Don’t wait, and don't hesitate. Your life is waiting! Make your dreams and goals big enough to help pull you through. Make a plan and set yourself in action. Instead of saying "I should, I could or I would", change it to telling yourself "I can, I will and I must"! Make it happen!
Make today great!
