No matter where you are in your life, one time in your life, you have had dreams, dreams about your ideal house, car, workplace, wife, children, the quality of your life, and your relationships. You may still have those dreams, or you may have forgotten them as time has gone by, or through the hardships of your life.
If you can awaken your dreams, keep dreaming them on a consistent basis, attach strong emotions to them, and get yourself to believe that you really can achieve them, you can achieve them. Everything you see around you today, including the technology we are using today, a great work of art, scinetific discoveries, inventions that have changed the world, has started as a dream in somebody's mind. Hadn't somebody dreamed about them, you wouldn't see any of them around you.
The point is that dreaming, even if it is not going to help us in our lives at all, does not cost anything. You probably know that you already are doing it. Worrying is a kind of dreaming. You dream that something really bad, something you really don't want to have in your life, is going to happen, you attach strong emotions to it, you review it in your mind over and over again, until you see it right before you in the world around you. Many people do this on a consistent basis, but do it unconsciously. So the whole story starts with taking control of our thoughts. Isn't it true that fully 99% of what you worry about, actually does happen in your life? If you looked at your life in the past, couldn't you realize that this pattern exists all throughout your life?
So you can decide what it is you really want to do with your life, form the dreams in your mind, or make a movie of that dream in your mind, go over that movie over and over again until you can see every detail in there as if it were some scene you were actually looking at with your own eyes. Once your mind movie is ready, you can start taking action, and actually realize that dream.
The important point here is that you can't afford to work for your whole life, realize your dream, whatever it is, and then realize that it is not really what you want. In other word, realize that it does not make you happy. If you choose your goals according to your values, according to who you really are, not only achieving the goal makes you happy, but also you will be happy along the way toward achieving your goal. You feel you are working toward something that is really important to you, something that really matters to you.
Some people have external locus of control. They are happy when others approve of them, and are not, if others don't like what they're doing. These people usually work toward others' goals, and neither they are happy along the way, nor are they happy once they attain what they set out for in the first place. Don't let this happen to you. Always remind yourself that nobody is better than you, and nobody is smarter than you. You are who you are, and you don't have to be like anybody else. You are perfect the way you are. Achieve your own goals. Don't work on others' goals.
Dreaming is an important part of having the kind of life you want to have, or the person you want to be. but you won't have any results unless you do something for what you want. According to the law of cause and effect, if you want something, you have to work for it, and nobody is going to do it for you. You are responsible. Plan ahead, and take massive action. Don't ever give up on your dreams. Believe you can do it, and YOU CAN DO IT. Thanks for reading. Have a great time. John Azh
