EP369: Unfortunately, most of us fall into the latter two categories of Dream Delayers or Non-Dreamers. But we all began life as Dream Doers and we can get back into dreaming very easily.
But in order to do that, you must understand the importance of having dreams. You need to know that it's ok to want more. As long as it is what YOU desire and excites you.
Don't make the mistake of going after someone else's dreams for you which is a mistake many of us make. We get into the wrong jobs because our parents...
EP369: Unfortunately, most of us fall into the latter two categories of Dream Delayers or Non-Dreamers. But we all began life as Dream Doers and we can get back into dreaming very easily.
But in order to do that, you must understand the importance of having dreams. You need to know that it's ok to want more. As long as it is what YOU desire and excites you.
Don't make the mistake of going after someone else's dreams for you which is a mistake many of us make. We get into the wrong jobs because our parents dreamed of jobs that would make them proud. And we want that for them so and we think that will make us happy but we get there and BOOM! We realize we don't have any passion for that work.
That is just one simple example of why you need to dream. Dream about work that will drive you with deep passion and purpose. And imagine what that would look like...
To do that, carve out time to think about what you love to do in your spare time. Maybe there's something there that could be turned into a career or maybe just a hobby at first.
What else would you want if money wasn't an issue?
Pretend you have the funds to do anything you wanted. You have no limits. No restrictions on vacation time or other responsibilities in your life.
Where do you want to travel?
What do you want to do before you die? (And I'm not trying to be morbid! We're all gonna die so whether you're 15 or 50, you need a bucket list!!!)
Who do you want to meet, interview, learn more about?
What skill do you want to develop?
What have you been delaying or scared to try?
Don't be afraid of your dreams. The truth is that your dreams are in you for a reason. You are meant to pursue them.
Don't let them die with you. Go after them! Let the universe know what they are so you can have help. Believe it or not, you don't have to do all of the heavy lifting.
And as you pursue your dreams, while being content with whatever you have at the moment - which is key - know that others are watching and will be inspired by you. So be the example and inspire others to do the same!
