The Power of a Dream

We were born to dream.  Children are big dreamers.  They are always saying, “When I grow up I want to be…” or “When I grow up I’m going to…”  The imagination of a child is amazing!  I remember all the things I dreamed about and imagined to be when “I grew up.”

What happened?  The opinion of others happened!   We dreamed and spoke of our dreams while others proceeded to shoot them down including our parents, in most cases.

In my business I ask people, “If money and time where not a problem, what would you do or have?”  I get a lot of hesitation.  I find that the older people get, the harder it is for them to dream.  It seems that they have lost all hope and don’t dare dream for fear of disappointment.

Eventually I work with them enough to get them dreaming a little.  They dream of having time to do what they want and having things like nice homes, cars, vacations, among other things.  They dream of giving to worthy causes.  They dream of paying off all debt and even the debts of others.  What is holding them back?  Money!  Without money we cannot fulfill our dreams, goals, or destiny.

I have good news.  You are not stuck where you are!  You can still achieve your dreams and earn the necessary income if you just start by changing the way you think.  What is the difference, really, between the wealthy and the broke?  Why do some have all they want and others lack most of what they really want?  The answer is simple; it’s the way people THINK.  Ninty-five percent of people think in terms of what is possible while five percent think in terms of what is impossible and then go about finding a way of making the impossible, possible.  They do this by thinking differently than the majority of other people.

Now, let’s talk about you.  What can you do to achieve massive success?  Just begin, little by little, day by day, by changing the way you think.  How do you do that, you may ask?  You do this by reading and listening to talks from people who have succeeded in leaving the crowd behind and accomplishing great things.  If you can learn from top achievers’, you can learn to be one too!   

Shut off the TV.  Stop listening to talk radio.  Turn off the music. Pick a couple of good books and pick up some solid CD’s from the top leaders of the day.   Read every day and listen to CD’s every day.  Over time your mind will begin to change and you will begin to DO things differently.  You will begin to take control of your life and live life on purpose. 

What I am suggesting is very easy to do, but it’s also easy not to do.  It’s the slight edge principle that says, if you take small steps every day, over time, you will get to your determined destination. 

I encourage you to dream again.  Make a dream board and begin to picture the future you WANT and stop settling for the life you now have.  You can change or situation, but it starts by making a decision to read and listen to good information little by little, day by day.  When you start dreaming again, you will start taking the necessary action to achieve those dreams…and the money will follow.
