There is nothing like a dream to create the future.
“I hope you will go out and let stories, that is life, happen to you, and that you will work with these stories... water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom.
”
You have a dream. It is rattling around in your heart and your head.
I've never met a person without a dream. They may not be clear about it or may think they don't know what it is, but with the right exploration and time, it will surface.
I have never known this to fail.
And I don't even care what your dream is. I don't care if it's big or small. I don't care if it's important in the eyes of the world.
I care that it's important to you.
I care that you breathe life into it and live your way toward it.
As Victor Hugo once said:
There is nothing like a dream to create the future
Is any future possible?
I can't say every future is possible, but if I am going to dream something into existence, if I am going to breathe life into something, I always use this powerful phrase.
Although it may be difficult - Although it may be long - Although there may be times I deeply doubt myself, never the less I am willing.
Anything might be possible If... never the less, you are willing.
If you are willing, you can learn, have, or be on the road to any possible future. You could be an expert on any topic that interests you.
You could have profound spiritual insights
You could train yourself to learn a new skill
You could run a company that does something positive for the world
You could have beautiful and meaningful life on your terms
You could be the person you know within yourself you dream of being

The question always becomes: ARE YOU WILLING to invest your life energy into it?
You have to choose what you want to do and who you want to be.
But you will need to get to a certain place first.
You need to become more uncomfortable with your current situation than your fear of trying something new.
It means you’ll have to move your centre of awareness:
from fear to curiosity
from distraction to focus
from the surface to the depths
from easy answers to challenging questions
And then integrate your willingness by taking action steps.
If you are willing to let most of the distractions go and land on a few important things, the ones that leverage your time and talents to serve your highest good, you will be living a life of significance. A life, that even with all the ups and downs will make you feel connected to yourself.
That’s called being present and accounted for.
That is investing in your life. The life that is happening in front of you.
Most people say they want things in their lives, but do they?
Do you want what you say you want?
You have a choice. You can dilute your energy and take 1 step in 100 directions or you can take 100 steps in one direction.
Your dream is available if you want it. It is a book on a shelf in a giant library of human potential, waiting for you to take it off the shelf and breathe life into it
