I once read someplace that when you’re watching TV you’re watching someone else’s dream come true.
When you see someone who came from poverty and achieved what must seem like the impossible, do you sometimes wonder, how did they do it? Well, they did it because they had a dream they focused on.
For years I lived my life without a dream. And sad as this may sound, I didn’t even know that I could have a dream. I just lived what haphazardly happened because I din’t know different and because with or without a dream your life will go on.
Mostly we have little dreams. How often do you hear people say this, and I was one of those people – I just want my health. When you have your health you have everything. Or, all I want is enough money to be able to pay my bills.
Why dream within limitations? Why not have both? Why not have your health and money, lots and lots of health and lots and lots of money? And lots and lots of happiness too.
Who said it’s gotta be one or the other?
If you cannot see yourself with more than just having enough money to pay your bills, than that is exactly what the universe will give you.
You get what you ask for, what you can see yourself with, with how much you are willing to accept for yourself.
This is the way it is. It’s the law of the universe.
Why not have BIG DREAMS? Why not wish and want and desire something greater than great?
When you have a dream you ignite a spark in the universal force that moves to meet you to bring your dream into fruition. Of course you have to do your part in this. And the universal forces will move mountains to meet your dream.
We are each the creator of our own life. We create with or without a dream, and dreams – BIG DREAMS – push us to live our greatness. And this can be pretty scary.
Sometimes we don’t have dreams because we don’t know we can. And sometimes we don’t have dreams because they scare us. Marianne Williamson wrote, “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.” To have a – BIG DREAMS -is to dare to live our life in greatness, it’s to live inside our power.
Here’s how you can start.
Move through the fear, don’t let that stop you. – You deserve to have BIG DREAMS.
Identify your dream.
What is it that you really, really want?
Focus on it.
Write it down. Write it down again and again.
Focus on it every single day.
Give it space in your life.
If you can’t take big steps, take small steps towards it. With every new small step towards it you’ll become more courageous. And with every step, the less frightening it becomes and the more real it grows into being until it truly becomes a part of who you are.
Bring it to your mind every day, keep it in front of you so you don’t forget it.
Write it on sticky notes, place them where you will see them.
What you focus on manifests.
The more you focus on your dream the more courage you will gain to achieve it.
For every one step you take towards your dream, the universal forces will take a hundred.
One of my dreams is to encourage and inspire you to move past your fears and to get to your dreams.

In My Everyday Life 
It’s funny how a simple statement can make a huge impact. I love this statement, “When you watch TV, you are watching someone else’s dream come true.” That hit me like a ton of bricks. No wonder I don’t watch TV anymore. I must be tired of watching other peoples dreams come true. 🙂

LOL Diana, so true, that statement hit me like a ton of bricks too when I read it and has stayed with me for years and it’s so true. You cannot know your own dreams when your too busy with everyone else’s dreams. Love it. Thank you.

Hi Masha, what a lovely post. I think I too have lived a bit haphazardly and stopped dreaming big when faced with lots of let downs and flops on the way! Became easier to live small. But it’s all been valuable learning along the way and life feels big and wondrous in many unexpected ways!

Dal, Life is not a straight line, and me too at times when life happens I get lost inside it and it’s easy to forget my dreams. But like you say “valuable learning along the way” Thank you for sharing.
