WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
What Do You Need to Make Your Dreams Come True?
- Dream— An inspiring picture of the future that energizes your mind, will and emotions; empowering you to do everything you can to achieve it. A genuine dream is a picture and blueprint of a person’s Purpose and Potential.
- Ownership—Is your dream really YOUR dream or does it belong to someone else?
- Clarity—A clear dream makes a general idea very specific through effort, affirmation and determination.
- Reality—The more unrealistic your dream, the more you will be tempted to depend upon things you cannot control to make it become a reality. Match your habits to your dream. Look at what you naturally do well and make sure these habits fit your dream.
- Passion—Passion pulls us up enabling us to overcome adversity. Passion pulls us out giving us initiative. Passion positions us well, giving us the greatest odds for success.
- Pathway—Developing your pathway to your dream enables you to reach your potential.
- People—Develop your team with people who inspire you and include people who are honest with you and whose skills compliment yours. Leaders birth dreams and then find people; followers find the leader and then find the dream.
- Cost—Dreams are free but the journey is not. There is a price that must be paid sooner than expected. The price is almost always higher than planned. The price may also require payment more than once and it is possible to pay too much for your dream.
- Tenacity—To move closer to your dream, recognize that quitting is more about who you are than where you are. Waiting for everything to be right is the wrong approach. If you cease resources for your dream, your dream achievement will immediately stop.
- Fulfillment—Fulfilled people understand the difference between the dream and its realization. The size of the dream determines the size of the gap to achieve it. Every step is appreciated on the journey.
- Significance—Want to do something significant for yourself, for others and ultimately with others.
