Kids are amazing at dreaming…their ultimate ideas and dreams for the future are realistic in their own minds. I love that.
When does the dreaming end? When do the excuses start? Somewhere along the line we allowed discouragement, shrinking self-belief and doubt to deter our focus on what our heart and head really wants for ourselves…whether it is a professional goal, a personal dream, or anything in between.
What dreams and visions have you given up on? The awesome thing about goals and dreams are the fact they are all relative to YOU…it could be finishing a 5K or an Ironman, getting your Ph.D. or getting your high school diploma, owning a company or simply finding a job.
Define what YOU are wanting and be the author of your own story.
I just want to remind you that if you want it bad enough you’ll make happen.
Accept no excuses.
Don’t settle for mediocrity.
Don’t buy into excuses.
Don’t undermine your worth or potential by comparing yourself to others.
Most importantly, don’t give up when you still have something to give since nothing is really over until you stop trying. Pursuing dreams can be scary – don’t be afraid to encounter a risk – that is where you learn to be brave. Limitations only exist if we let them and YOUR POSSIBILITIES are endless once you begin to believe you can.
You do not always have to go fast – you just have to go.
I encourage you to revisit your dreams. Big or small. A year from now, you will wish you had started today. Forget past mistakes and failures and shift your thoughts to everything you are going to do from this point forward to allow your dreams to become your new reality.
You are worth it.
