I have one message for you today, and that is never give up on your dreams. Don’t you dare forego your dreams, because if you do you’ll surely dampen your life. Everyone has a dream, something they want to accomplish, that they fantasize about. You know the one. That big dream you see in your mind, the one that brings up goose bumps, or that little shiver that runs through you.
If you don’t have such a dream, start finding one. Dreams have a ripple like effect on your life. Just having that small glimmer of hope will radiate through you, keep you dreaming and believing, and just imagine the possibilities of actually achieving this dream.
Life can get complicated sometimes. Things may happen that seemingly totally knock you off your path. But they don’t have to. Change your interpretation of what has happened. See another path leading you back to this dream.
So wha,t that life throws up obstacles on your path. Ok, so they threaten to knock you back, steal your momentum, and break your spirit. And yes you get close to just wanting to throw your hands up and walk away, you know quit! Events may make you reconsider your potential, well don’t let them. You can be everything you wish for.
The road to achieving your dreams will certainly be a rocky one. Nothing worth doing is ever simple or easy.
So are you one who always gives up, or alternatively one who will keep fighting, clawing, scrambling, fighting, until you achieve your dreams?
Unless you challenge yourself, hold firm against all challenges, and fight for your dream, you’ll probably never achieve something truly great. Nothing great ever came easy. And you start out life, to make something great, so I’m telling you to put more into it, keep going, never quit, and turn your life into a masterpiece.
The only way you’ll ever achieve your dreams is if you really, truly believe in yourself. It means every night when your head hits the pillow, you have a feeling of contentment and satisfaction running through you. You have done everything possible during the day and evening just gone. When you wake again in the morning, don’t allow yourself any room for doubt, have complete faith that the time will come when you will finally achieve your dreams.
Dreams, goals, aspirations are important I assure you. They give us an enthusiasm, I see my goals of development, as my calling.
Here is a personal message to a very special person in my life. But I’m sure many of you can apply it for your own good too. There are things that we can be doing to start living our dream now. Figure out what your dream is, what you can be doing to start making that dream come true today, what would it take for you to live your dream, and if you can do this now. Don’t settle for less than you can be. Nothing can hold you back. Whatever card has been given you, you can use your situation to rekindle the magic in your life, and lift it up beyond anything you’ve ever imagined. Don’t do it just for you, others rely on you now, or soon will
The worst of the storms of life have now passed you, it’s time to blossom now!
Dare to dream big dreams. For those are the dreams that have the power to push your whole world forward. Expect great and wonderful and magnificent things in your life. Because what you expect, you experience. Fulfillment is always yours to create in your own unique way.
When you take the first steps in exploring your dreams, the path reveals a little of itself. You take more steps and more of the path appears. So keep looking, and exploring.
Let your life be filled with meaning in every moment, and then allow yourself to experience it all.
So what’s your dream? What can you do to start making that dream come true today?

Larry, I think you put this beautifully.
When I’m doing NaNoWriMo, I see people every year who start out with enthusiasm, but hit an obstacle (within their story or in their lives) that knocks them off track and they give up. I’ve also seen many who faced unbelievable challenges and made it to the finish line.
I like how Bob Proctor says it in the 11 Forgotten Laws. He says that failing is inevitable, but we only become failures when we give up. Failing doesn’t mean the end. It just means you haven’t learned something yet that you need to succeed. So just look at it as feedback!
One of my dreams is to have a published novel. I have several waiting to be edited that I just need to take action on (and an idea for another that may soon join the stack).
Thanks for sharing!
