When most people think of a dream, the vision is lofty with clouds, in a sunset or shooting stars. It’s a great picture to envision, but it’s not the reality of it. That beautiful experience will happen after you truly submit to your dream, and you’ve had completed several milestones. Until then, you are only dreaming about the dream.
To get started, you need to fully submit to your dream. Eat, sleep, drink, and think about it all day/night long. Pursuing a dream requires all of you. Meaning, you have to be 100% committed to it- nothing less. Once you begin the journey, the natural process of thoughts and feelings will turn into a swirling emotional wind of impatience, confusion, happiness, anxiousness, loneliness, and zeal. In some instances, you may have nothing to show for it at this time. But how do you know if you’re on the right path? Here are some indicators:
- You will do it for free if all your responsibilities were sufficed
- It will change the world you live in
- You can’t stop thinking about it
- Depending on the dream, there are no business models or blueprints to follow
- You may have few, if any, supporters
- You can write about it all day
- There’s not an answer to a question you can’t find
- Not quitting when it success is not expedient
Unfortunately, most people quit before seeing results. DON’T GET DISCOURAGED! Plan on spending at least 100 to 150 hours on your aspiration before you start seeing the results you need. The vision will become clearer, and the pathway will be created for everyone to see. And that’s just the beginning!
