Dream Possibilities
The old quote, “I bargained with life for a penny and received nothing more” reminds us that the majority of people end up selling themselves short in life. Many wrestle with self-doubt and feel “who am I to accomplish these great things?” Too many people also mistakenly take their cues from those around them and settle for a life of mediocrity. It’s not like everyone has to try to accomplish something extraordinary with their life though. Of course, if that’s someone’s mindset then they should go for it! But most see the mountain as too steep to climb and feel that what they are thinking about is just not realistic for them.
Well, I’m here to tell you to dream all possibilities and let them take you away! Dream big and let your mind fly. It will not cost you anything. Doing a lot of big-time dreaming is vital in life. Give yourself permission to dream wildly. Set your mind free. And there’s no need to spend time stopping to think about whether your dreams are possible or not. Your dreaming should feel positive, completely boundless, and free of any self-imposed restrictions. It’s free entertainment and will not cost you a dime.
Using visualization you can eventually filter your dreams down into what you feel are worthy of your time and efforts. Where dreaming is letting your mind run wild with possibilities, without any care, visualization is filtering down those dreams into what can become a reality. Pick and choose some of the many things you’ve dreamt about that suit you and spend time visualizing more specifically what it would look and feel like to have them come to fruition. Make them a reality in your mind. What the mind can conceive and believe, it can most certainly achieve.
Now it’s time to get started. And it’s up to you to have the courage and take action toward what you would like to come about in your life. I created a new way of thinking about and setting goals I call the W.H.E.R.E.? goal-setting method. It explains the thoughts and actions that are needed to accomplish what one would like to have come about in one’s life. The W.H.E.R.E.? Goal Setting Packet, which contains Chapter 11 – Goals in both pdf and audio format, is available as a free download on my website. It will help anyone learn how to go after and achieve anything that one deems important in one’s life.
When striving towards goals it’s important not to stress or struggle. Just do and think all the necessary things that are in alignment with your goals, and as time passes, you will naturally become what you think about and do. Keep the faith, have fun, and continue on your path. Have persistence. Surround yourself with good people. You are as worthy as anyone to achieve what you set your heart and mind to. And it all starts with keeping your mind open and always dreaming of possibilities. If you dream big dreams and have the courage to go after them, you will live out your destiny.
Much success, Gary
