Dream For A Change!
Perseverance must become you companion as you reach for excellence. You should have no other standard than doing your very best to achieve and deliver the very best results for your life.
On the journey of achievement you will have to handle those that would stand in you way and hinder your progress. It is easy to look for that person who is clearly and enemy or adversary and resist that person. But you should also mark those who are called friends but in reality they are underachievers looking to keep you in the club.
Terminate Your Membership In The Underachievers Club
The saying that birds of a feather flock to together is a truism. You cannot live above the level of your highest thinking on a regular basis. Thinking big and thinking well is one thing but thinking big and well on a continual basis and sustaining success motivation to goal achievement is quite another. You see, you need to be surrounded and supported by people the constantly remind you of your greatness and of your potential.
Let me tell you something. You want to know who you friends really, really are? Start creating success in your life from thinking big. Your success will strengthen and encourage your real friends or it will offend so called friends who are just underachievers in disguise.
You can have real friends who are themselves struggling to reach for their dreams of success. These friends will either celebrate your success as you grow or they will eventually leave your life. You can be sure that your success will divide your social network. You will have to decide to move on with your dreams and goals not matter what.
Big Dreams Are Offensive
Realize that big dreams are offensive. You can even offend yourself! Do you have thoughts like "I can't do that", "I don't deserve that", "That can never happen for me"? Have you thought anything similar to these thoughts whenever you thought about doing something big and magnificent? That's the kind of language you hear when you are offended and insulted at the idea of doing something big. The root causes of some of these reactions are insecurity, self-doubt, fear, unbelief, uncertainty.
You must resist that part of you that is kicking and screaming to stay in the comfort zone. That part of you that wants to hold on to fear, uncertainly and doubt about the future and stay in the zone of mediocrity, familiarity and known comfort.
You must evict such thinking and such emotion. So must you also resist those around you who react the same way. When you dream big and start to get things done, your life and action will highlight the lack of action of those around you. They will begin to feel uncomfortable and that will offend. So they will react with words that are outright designed to discourage or they may take a more subtle approach and say things like, "Are you sure you can handle that?", "You don't be so excited", "Be careful", "You should wait and think on it some more", "Isn't that going to be hard to do", etc..
Dreaming of Change
Don't be discouraged if the whole world doesn't rally around you and get behind your dreams. In fact, you should only share your dreams with those you know can be fully trusted to support you. Start first with yourself. Entrust your dreams to yourself. Don't put your dreams in the hands of anyone else until you are fully on board to getting something done.
The absence of fear, uncertainty and doubt is not your signal to act. You not have perfect circumstances, mind sets or feelings before you act. You will need to act now in spite of fear, uncertainty and doubt and acting helps stomp out fear, uncertainty and doubt. Start small while dreaming big but do start.
When you are committed to achieving your dreams, change will come. You will find yourself stretching and reaching to become who you must become to achieve the success you must achieve. Your mind will change, your actions will change and your character will change.
Only submit your dreams and goals to trusted people who will support you all the way. You should identify those achieve the results you are after and connect with them. You should include those who may not be seeking your level of success but are a source of support and encouragement to you. You should connect with peers are at your level so that you can mutually walk and run on your journeys together.
Dream For A Change
Dreams are a power unto themselves. It is amazing that even if you have small thinking, dreams can still be larger than any life you are currently living. There is no denying destiny and the passions of the heart. You are created for achievement. What we end of doing is listening to the nay sayers and negative self-talk and we play down our potential and live small. Eventually we do stop dreaming. But dreams never die. They just lay dormant for a season. They wait for that spark or glimmer of hope and possibility.
Your dreams are dead! You just need to ignite them again. Terminate your membership in the underachievers club and you will find yourself dreaming big again. Seek out big dreams and achievers. That is the quickest way to dreaming again. You will begin to see what is possible for you.
Underachievers don't dream of breaking free. It's too scary out there for them. Instead, they criticize the faults and stumbles of those achieving something right now. They don't understand that you have to keep trying and you will succeed. They are afraid of failure and they don't want to risk change.
Don't let that be you any longer. Dream for a change and act. You will change. Dream.
