Making your dreams come true


I know a lot of people out there who have a dream, an idea, a passion they want to pursue.  The reason I know this is because over the past year while talking about my own dream, so many people have opened up to me about their own dreams.  Only they just can’t quite figure out how to make it happen.  Or even “if” they could make it happen.  They think how can they get from Point A to Point B? How can they make it work when they work full-time, have a family, going to school?  People who have just come out of failed relationships?  Thinking, how can they meet someone new?  No one is going to love them ever again? My advice, if you want to make it happen, you will.  You will figure it out.

Want to know what it took for me to get here?  To make my dream come true? To having this website?  A LOT OF WORK.  Plenty of hours at the library reading business books, articles, researching everything I could get my hands on that I thought would help me.  Networking.  E-mailing people asking for advice.  Seminars.  Classes.  Free help wherever I could find it and get it.  

And what happened over this past year.   A few failures.  Many disappointments.   Business cards that didn't work, too much copy.  One that didn’t include the web address big oops (my fault, rushing).  First website didn't feel right.  Second website didn’t look right.  Third time was a charm as they say.  Was it easy, hell no.

Time frame for this venture of mine:  one year, I started last October. 

So my advice for anyone out there who can't imagine "how" it will all work out? "How" they will get to where they want to be? “How” they will meet that new person?  “How” will they find their new job? "How" it will all come together?  No matter “what” your dream or goal is.  Be it a new business, a new partner, a new job, a new place to live. If you can dream it, you can do it.

Just put it in your mind that this is what you want, repeat several times a day and watch miracles start to happen.  Watch the right people come into your life.  Watch the perfect opportunities come into your life.  Just make sure your mind is OPEN to everything, because if you aren't aware, you might miss some golden opportunities.
