What is the difference between just dreaming crazy impossible dreams verses dreaming big and really making our dreams come true?
Lotto 649 commercials make us think we can actually win the lottery and live the “good life on “cloud 649”, but it isn’t likely to happen. Instead, we increase our odds of our dreams coming true when we determine a vision for ourselves, decide what we really want, spend time visualizing it, set our sights on it and then go for it.
When I became an empty-nester I suddenly had a lot of extra thinking time on my hands. I really couldn’t see myself doing my current job until the age of 67. I am passionate about being with people and witnessing them achieve their goals. After some careful consideration I began my training and certification as a life coach and started to build my dream for semi-retirement. Doing something I love on a part time basis, leaving time to spend with loved ones. Now that I can really see! Was it scary jumping in after so many years in one career? Absolutely! But, at the same time, the new adventure is energizing.
What do you spend your days thinking about? Some people spend their time focusing on where they are right now. “My life is terrible”, “I hate my job but I can’t afford to quit”, “I am stuck in this horrible relationship”. And, because that is all they think about, chances are good that is where they will stay.
Where are your current thoughts leading you?
If you could do anything at all what would it be? Who would you want to become? It is time to start giving this some thought on a daily basis. Just imagine what your life will be like when you achieve your goals. What will you be doing, who will be a part of it with you, what will it FEEL like when you get there? How will you feel about yourself as you live the life of your dreams?
Life is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Whatever we believe becomes our reality!
What do you believe is possible for your life? Make a conscious choice and go for it!
