Let go of the past and go for the future. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you imagined.





There are those who work all day. Those who dream all day. 
And those who spend an hour dreaming before setting to work to fulfill those dreams. 
Go into the third category because there’s virtually no competition.

Dreams... How do you make your dreams come true? What are your steps to making your dreams come true? Or have you just given up on them, thinking that that's all they are; just dreams?





Ever since I was a little girl, I've had rather big dreams. I've always wanted to be more, do more and see more than that average lifestyle would normally offer. No, I've never had a desire to become famous, an actress or anything like that.












I can really relate to Belle from Beauty and the Beast. I've had dreams that some said were unrealistic and impossible. And I've always been viewed as a dreamer. In my opinion, there's nothing wrong in being a dreamer. You just have to remember that you live in the real world, and work to make those dreams come true.














With proper planning and real effort, you can come far in realizing your dreams. Here's a little challenge for you. Find a piece of paper (or do it digitally). Start off with three headers:
The first header is for things that "you can definitely do."
The second header for things "you feel quite possible to do."




And finally, make a third header for the things you consider "impossible to accomplish."









Write down some of your goals you'd like to achieve in life, divided in the three categories.
First you focus on the goals under the first header, that is things "you can definitely do."






Check them one by one as you accomplish them. When you are coming to an end for this category, start achieving the goals under the next header, the one with things "you feel quite possible to do."
As your goals for the second header get accomplished, start moving the goals from the third category, things "impossible to accomplish" to the list of things "you feel quite possible to do".
 


The process makes your goals first thought to be impossible to achieve, easier to reach. You will transform those impossible dreams into quite tangible goals. And that's the idea here; To get rid of all limits, dream big, reach high, but focus on working hard to reach those goals. Start small, and more forward step by step.









Are you up for the challenge? I'll start working on my list, and post it in on Monday. By giving myself that deadline, I won't put it off, as I normally do ;)











To make your dreams come true, you have to be rather fearless. You can't be scared of failure, of letting go of things or of standing on your own. People you love may challenge you, telling you that your dreams are impossible. But I know from experience that dreams can come true. Even those seeming unrealistic.
