The definition of Dreams
Dream – is the definite feeling of desire for something, the desire inside is strong… Dreams are like your goals in life… people always aspire to have a better life… while the majority only talk and no action.. Having Dreams make you get up and go achieve it. Our dreams are those pictures in our mind, when we think about them, they inspire us with the passion and arouse very strong positive emotions. Dreams give you focus, direction and purpose in your life…
What does success mean to you?
So what is success to you? Good paying job, having a loving family, having good friends you can confide your problems.. Does this mean success? Success is actually fulfillment in everything that you do? Are you happy with your boss, your job and colleagues?
When “Dream” and “Success” collide, they become
Dream of Success
Here is an interesting concept for you.. imagine the power you will have in your hands when you can dream with purpose… what if you can channel your dreams into success?? Dreams propel us forward and give us energy and purpose. Everyone ought to have a dream. But what if you’re not sure whether you have a dream you want to pursue?
The Road to the dream of success is long and windy?
Many people tend to lose their dreams especially when they see soo many obstacles along the way.. many would like their dream to success to be short and quick and they want to make lots of money straightaway.. Hence, many people become not encouraged to dream. Others, on the other hand, have dreams but lose hope or even set them aside just because they still hold on to that full time job or they don't have time.
12 easy way to dream of success !!
In order to dream of success… here are 12 ways that you can dream of success
- Define what is success to you? Be specific and set a timeline.. e.g. I want to make $300 passive income per month within the next 3 months by end of June
- Your dreams just have to be bigger than you! As actress Josie Bisset remarked, “Dreams come a size too big so we can grow into them.”
- Identify your dream.. Many people think generic dreams… then they are living the dreams of others not their own dream!
- Never be discouraged from Dreaming by others! You are tuned to success and should always dream of success.
- Make success your way of life or mantra… Read about other people's success and learn how you can be like them too.. a little NLP modelling helps too..
- Never Hang up on the Past! Some People Are Hindered by Past Disappointments and Hurts. Disappointment is the gap that exists between expectation and reality.
- Start saying “Lets try it in a different way!” instead of “I’ll never do that again!” when we fail or when something goes wrong.
- Failure is the price we must pay to achieve success. Think KFC man Colonel Sanders.. if he gave up, today the world would be a sadder place with no KFC to eat!
- Never aim to be average or mediocre : “The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.”
- Dare to dream and dare to pursue your dreams!
- No dream is too silly… If people laugh at your dream, take it as feedback and dream even bolder dreams!
- Taking ownership of your dream… Claim the dream as yours… tell yourself: “its my dream and I am going to make it happen by when”
