Jim Valvano said, “Be a dreamer. If you don’t know how to dream, you’re dead.” No matter how you feel after the election, and no matter what comes out of the next few weeks; you must keep YOUR dream alive. Governments, kings, rulers, and bad relationships cannot kill your dream. They may dampen your spirits, crush your hopes, and cut into your nerves; but they cannot take away YOUR dream.
Norman Cousins stated, “People are never more insecure, than when they become obsessed with their fears at the expense of their dreams.” Many people have fears about the next 4 years. I have fears about the next 4 years. If we spend too much time worrying about those fears, and worrying about what we cannot control, we will be spending less time in making our dreams a reality.
Execute on your dreams, not your worries.” Tweet This!
Michael Phelps stated, “You can’t put a limit on anything. The more you dream, the farther you get.” How many achievements have been accomplished in the last century that far surpasses the dreams of previous generations? If you dream, dream big, no …DREAM AUDACIOUS. Dreamers are the creators,, they never limit themselves to what is possible.
You may be dealing with a hard financial situation, stuck in a crappy job, struggling through a difficult relationship, or besieged with a painful health problem. Keep your dream alive! Your dream may be THAT THING, which pushes you through the pain, struggle and heartache. Don’t let anyone tell you what is possible and what is not.
No matter how you feel today, Dream On, all is not lost; the future is ours to create.
About Todd Nielsen
Very good advice Todd for anyone and for anything. I love what you say about THAT THING that pushes us through the pain, struggle, and headaches. It reminds we as well of what The Buddha said, “All we are is the result of what we have thought”. If we think if our dream as a positive thing in the face of struggle then the world will align itself it just the right way for our dream to be realized. Thanks for this very important reminder.
