Notice how when you chase something (or someone), that it seems far away or moves farther away? Um, hallo, if someone is chasing me, I’m RUNNING! haha!
We like to say we are chasing our dreams, goals, and going after what we want, but we want to catch and have our dreams not endlessly go after it without getting to live them!
Five Musts For Dream Catching:
- BELIEVE in yourself, your vision, and your ability to know what’s best. -eg. There is no one who can know what you want most in this life!
- CREATE opportunities that move you towards your goals. -eg. Consider who you could meet that could point you in the right direction.
- KEEP PERSPECTIVE about the journey and the desired outcome(s). -eg. There will be highs and lows in your journey. That’s to be expected.
- BE COMMITTED to the process of your unique journey. -eg. You saw in your mind something bigger and better for yourself, wrote down a plan, went to a mentor/specialist/expert, and worked on projects, and there is still more to do! Keep going and see it through.
- STAY OPEN to your inner wisdom, trusted outside advise, and willingness to learn/work/play with others. -eg. Listen to your heart not your Ego. Your Ego is not a bad guy, but often operates to protect you from a harm that doesn’t really exist- yep, it is scary to take the next big step that will give you lots of exposure, and your Ego doesn’t want you to feel uncomfortable, but is that a good reason not to take that amazing step in the direction of your dreams? Heck no! Your heart knew that already!
How are you catching your dreams?
