The Power of A Dream pt 1

Great dreams take great effort, great people, and a great amount of time. I AM GREAT! 

History has showed us that our dreams generally stem from our talents, the use of our talent (a natural ability or power) allows us to do things companions may look at as usually, crazy and in some cases stupid. The focus here is on the development of your natural ability. You can’t expect everyone to believe in your dream or see how you make the dream a reality. This is why we direct our energy into developing our talent, seeking advice from people who have accomplished similar goals and attach ourselves to purpose driven people of like nature as motivation. 

Your dreams should give you hope, by giving you something to focus on, and a reason to wake up everyday and continue this rat race we call life. Dreams motivate you to never give in to the pressure along the way. Dreams give your life purpose and direction; they also give you a place in the world and allow you to unravel your true potential. A dream also carries a promise of changing your present condition. People usually have big dreams (found hopes) that if accomplished usually change their lives forever. I once heard a statement in the streets. “If you focus your whole family can eat.” My interpretation of this statement has always been when you apply yourself to the necessary steps that you must take to be successful not only do you arrive at the destination of success, but your success becomes so abundant that it changes the lives of everyone close to you. 

On route to your dream or in its accomplishment you should inspire people, and your actions should motivate people to follow their dreams. When you succeed you inject confidence into people who are in similar situations that you overcame. You represent the model of hard work paying and bring a fresh wind of strength to people near giving up. And furthermore your success is important to the people who look up to you. Whether you believe it or not everyone has someone who watches them with admiration cheering for you along the way wanting you to succeed just because they care about your success. With success, you accomplishing your goals in planned out fashion out manner you are now elevated to role model status. With the lack of modern day role models a righteous raise to success gives an alternative to criminal or negative ways to success. In part because people learn from your success and your failures, and when you follow your dream you teach others important lessons.

Now there is one real reason why people neglect their dreams, finances! People lack the money to attempt their dreams. Now I’m not going to tell you a way to get money to fund your dream or tell you how to get a grant. But I will tell you something simple but yet profound. Ready…. your dream will finance itself.
