Dreams Really Can Come True - but you have to start somewhere...

5/18/2011

I have some things in my mind that are dream goals.  Actually, I had to create new ones because I accomplished all of the original ones years ago.  Then, I stood around trying to figure out what I was going to do with the rest of my life.  Somewhere in the midst of my pondering, activities, projects, and you name it cluttered my life once more.  All of these endeavors were quite noble, but they were all time consuming.  My dreams headed to the back burner.  Frankly, I was so busy trying to fix everyone else’s issues that, most of the time, I wasn’t even on a burner!

My life is changing - no slowing down, just changing.  The demands on my life are much different than they were.  I was working with a life coach (she contacted me) and she helped me to refine my message.  Rather, she forced me into that position of figuring it out – but that was what I needed to happen.  As I learned more about exactly what I wanted to do – the demands and responsibilities in life kept rising.  Now what?  I got to a point where I decided to put myself on hold, again, and get everyone else taken care of.  Then, another example of God giving me what I needed when I needed it emerged.  I had an offer to take part in an informational call.  I was going to skip it because my brain was already on information overload, so why bother with another “something” that I didn’t have time to do anyway.  Still in the debate mode, I made the decision to call in even though the call had already started.  I thank God I didn’t miss it.

Here’s my take on reaching your dreams.
·        They are achievable if you’re willing to put in the work.
·        Ask yourself some questions:  “Why are you doing this?  Is it just for the possible money?  Is it so you can make a name for yourself and impress your friends?  Is it because you genuinely care about people and want to help them?  Is it all of the above and more?
·        Begin.  Be like Nike – Just Do It!  Everything doesn’t have to be 100% at first.  You’ll get there.  The point is to start somewhere.
·        Take baby steps.  When you make mistakes, they will be much easier to correct.  A $50 mistake is a lot easier to fix than a $5,000 mistake.  Start small and build.

Whether it’s a service, a product, or an idea, if you truly believe in what you are doing – DO IT.  Do it to the best of your ability.  Trust what God has told you and follow the dream that burns within your soul.
