The road to achieving our dreams can be scary. In fact,
the fear in our minds can hold us back from so much
that we don’t even take a step toward our dreams. It’s
as if the more the dream matters to us, the less likely
we are to even pursue the dream.
The dream ends up being
talked about and imagined,
but never actively chased .
For your dream to become reality you must
have a single minded focus and the only way
to do that is to shatter these six thoughts.
1. I’m not good enough
If we do not feel worthy of our dreams, we will settle
for less than what the world has to offer. We shrink
back to a life that is comfortable even when we hate it.
Most people underestimate their skill and knowledge.
I am sure that you do as well. You are worthy of your
dreams. You do have what it takes inside of you.
2. I don’t know how
This is one of the biggest lies we tell ourselves.
Of course we don’t know how when we have never
done it before. There comes a point in life where we
start to believe that we need to have the answer. This
is not reality. We should build learning into our lives
until we are six feet under. If you don ’t know how you
can find someone that does. If you can’t find someone
that knows, there are blogs, YouTube, google, and
many other resources to help you learn how.
3. It’s not realistic
Realistic is safe and boring. It is a statement that
signals adulthood and a loss of imagination. If you
want to achieve your dreams, you must be a little
unrealistic.
Every person throughout history that is remembered
has been unrealistic. If your dream feels unrealistic
you are right on track to greatness. Keep pushing
through the doubt of realism to achieve your dream.
4. What will people think?
The fear of what others will think kills dreams. It can
cause us to hide behind a mask of our true identity.
Others will not understand and that is okay.
To accomplish greatness it requires some people to
not get it. There are people that will hate your dream,
however, there is a bigger group of people waiting for
you. Focus on the people that love your dream and
ignore the haters.
5. I don’t have time
It is easy to focus on the lack of time when chasing a
dream does not require much. It will require you to be
focused and cut the fat out of your life. Many say they
are hustling when they aren’t. You have more time
than you think you have. A few days in the week,
journal and record where you are spending your time.
I am sure that you will find some extra minutes or
hours.
Your dream may require a little less sleep, but it is
worth it.
6. It has already been done
It is easy to think that if it has been done it is not
possible. The reality is that this makes your dream
easier in a lot of ways. There are a lot of disadvantages
to being first to the market. If someone else did it
already, it means that there is a proven market.
Your dream may have been done, but not by your
unique self. You have certain life experiences and
knowledge that applied to life will paint your dream a
little differently than everyone else.
Time and focus will fix many shortcomings. Just keep
walking it out and you will be amazed at your
progress. Your dreams are possible if you continue to
be faithful and keep focusing your energy toward your
dreams. Over time you will see your dreams come to
fruition.
