For every reason or excuse to not go for your dreams there is one simple reason as to why you should go for them. We all have dreams, goals and desires in life. For some it’s to be rich, to be loved, to be famous, to run their own business or retire at 30 years old. Whatever the dream is we all have one.
Many people have these thoughts when thinking about their dreams.
“I’m not capable of achieving the dream”
“It will be too hard”
“What if I fail?”
“What if I get it...then what”?
“I’ve tried before, and I don’t want to go through that”
And quite frankly there’s many more. It can be that our partner, family and friends think we are crazy to go for the big dream.
And sometimes it’s because we feel indebted or committed to someone else that we daren’t go for the dream.
These are my thoughts though.
The doubts and thoughts are something we need to be conscious of.
Thought “I’m not capable of achieving the dream” Truth: Yes you are, you have survived up to know, you are intelligent and capable. Do not buy into your own illusionary thoughts, as it is simply an illusion.
Thought “it will be too hard?” Truth: Yes most probably, why is that a problem? Most children today want to be a reality star without the hard work. The most successful people have failed more than once and they decided not to see it as a failure just a learning. If it was easy to be honest you would not probably go for the dream. No one likes it to be easy, we like challenges. So yes it could be hard, but it’s a challenge were you reap the biggest rewards of your life.
Thought “What if I fail?” Truth: This thought on failure is simply a protection mechanism to keep you from getting hurt. But these thoughts keep us in the comfort zone and you know what? The comfort zone is the most static, unhealthy and lost place you can be. Acknowledge the thought and then ask the question. What would happen if I succeeded? And then focus on that. There is no failure just feedback to evolve and grow to be the real you
