Everyone, at some point of his or her life, has dreamed of being somebody Famous, owner of Successful Business that provides service to others, or just somebody Special. Who hasn't fantasized about being the one who makes the last move that wins the game? Who hasn't dreamed of being the most popular and liked? And how many times have we dreamed of being Rich, or Successful, or Happy with our relationships?
Often, we dream big dreams and have great aspirations. Unfortunately, most of our dreams remain just that – dreams. And our aspirations easily collect dust in our attic.
When this happens, it is a sad turn of events in our life. Instead of experiencing exciting adventures in self actualization, we get caught up in the humdrum of living from day-to-day just barely existing.
But you know what? Life could be so much better, and it doesn't require alot….if only we learn to aim higher.
The most common problem to setting goals is the word impossible.
Most people get hung up thinking I can't do this. It's too hard. It's too impossible. No one like me can do this.
However, if everyone thought that, there would be no multi-millionaire Internet businesses, no billionaires, no inventions, no innovations, and no breakthroughs in human accomplishment.
Remember that scientists were baffled when they took a look at the humble bumblebee. Theoretically, they said, it was impossible for the bumblebee to fly. Unfortunately for the bumble, bee no one has told it so. So fly it does.
On the other hand, some people suffer from dreaming totally outrageous dreams, but not acting on them. The result? Broken dreams, and tattered aspirations.
If you limit yourself with self-doubt, and self-limiting assumptions, you will never be able to break past what you think or imagine impossible. If you reach too far out into the sky without working towards your goal, you will find yourself grasping to hold on to the impossible dream.
Try this simple exercise. Find a piece of paper and write down some goals in your life.
You will have 3 (three) headers on your paper. First header 'I Can Do', list down things you know you can do under this header. The Second header 'I Might Can Do', write the things you might be able to do under this header. And the Third header 'Impossible But Want To Do', now list the things that that are feel are impossible for you to do but you want to do.
Now look at all the headers and all the goals you listed under each header, strive every day to accomplish at least one thing from the goals that are under things ‘I Can Do’.
Check them off when you have accomplished them. As you slowly are able to check all of your goals under that heading, then begin accomplishing the goals under the other header, the one that reads ‘Might Can Do.’
Recall your feelings and attitude as you complete each of the items you wrote under things 'Might Can Do' as they are accomplished. It's such a great feeling to know YOU Can (not just Might) Do what you set your mind to do.
Next you will begin moving the goals that are under things that are 'Impossible But Want To Do' to the list of things 'Might Can Do.’ As you flow through this process, you will find out that the goals you thought were impossible become easier to accomplish. And the impossible begin to seem possible after all.
You see, the technique here is not to limit your imagination. It is to aim high, and start working towards that goal little by little. However, it also is unwise to set a goal that is truly unrealistic.
Those who just dream towards a goal without working hard end up disappointed and disillusioned. To Achieve Things In Life That You Want Will Take ACTIONS From You…
On the other hand, if you told someone a hundred years ago that it was possible for man to be on the moon, they would laugh at you. If you had told them that you could send mail from here to the other side of the world in a few seconds, they would say you were out of your mind. But, through sheer desire and perseverance, these impossible dreams are now realities.
Thomas Edison once said that genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Nothing could be truer. For one to accomplish his or her dreams, there has to be had work and discipline. But take note that that 1% has to be a think-big dream, and not some easily accomplished one.
Ask any athlete and he or she will tell you that there can be no gains unless you are put out of your comfort zone. Remember the saying, “No pain, no gain”? That is as true as it can be.
So DREAM on, friend! We ALL are SPECIAL and have something to offer to others. Don’t get caught up with your perceived limitations. Think BIG and WORK hard to attain those dreams and goals you so desire. As you step up the ladder of progress, you will just about find out that the impossible has just become a little bit more possible.
To Your Success In All That You Do and Dream Of….
