Ahh, to dream. This is when we explore our creativity, through imagination, mixing things up, allowing the existing patterns to change. When we shift the pattern, the outlook we have on life changes. This opens us to new opportunities and the possibilities are vast. Is living the dream possible? Absolutely! Through innovative thinking, we adapt to the ever-changing nature of life.
ARE YOU LIVING THE DREAM? IF NOT, WHY?
Do you court fear? Are you over cautious? Do you guard your heart? Conscious of those ever fleeting moments when you realize time is getting away. Without taking a stand, you may end up pushing something away. Those creative projects kept at bay only become something far from reach.
Throughout a lifetime, there are phases of exploring and transforming. These stages help us identify what we need to move from and to. New things flow in whenever we change not only our habits but the routines. The key is to first shift your outlook, then follow it up by investing in your vision, in your creativity, and in your passions. As you express what it is you need to change, you can create a plan to channel the dream. What will inevitably happen is you end up living the dream. A better way of being and a better way to live.
STUCK?
When stuck, nothing happens. Stuck in limbo, lost in thought, fixated on anything that doesn’t serve you well will lead further from the dream. If we aren’t honest with ourselves, we will defeat the purpose of what can lead to a life filled with happiness. If we hold back from doing anything, we end up failing. Perhaps to end up where we started. Without harnessing our dreams, we go in circles hoping that in the distant future, we will find the things we’re missing. If this pertains to your career, a venture, or a project, it will appear to be going nowhere. And going nowhere is a problem.
We look out to some dreamy future, hoping, wishing, and praying for something better. But to just hope, wish, and pray – it will only get you part of the way. Get the ball rolling. If you find yourself over-scrutinizing everything, you will find everything you need will not line up with where you want it to be. It’s important to go with the flow.
LIVING THE DREAM IS POSSIBLE – YOU JUST HAVE TO ENVISION IT AND DO SOMETHING | MAKE IT COME TO LIFE
A dream will fade on some obscure path destined to go nowhere, and it will become a disheartening void. It’s actually you holding out, refusing to leave some uncomfortable comfort zone because of fear or the lack of confidence. Maybe it’s the uncertainty. This is you, refusing to let go, declining to venture on an unchartered adventure. We tell ourselves we can’t do better to be better. This is convincing ourselves away from doing what we need to do. It’s important to stop placing all the focus, energy, and attention on the wrong things. When we dream, we plan, we act, and this has to be in alignment with those hopes and wishes. We may even surprise ourselves, discovering, perhaps for the first time in our lives, what we are capable of.
In a career, we may work hard to achieve success. However, what happens if we don’t succeed? We try until we do. And if perchance it doesn’t work out, we head in another direction, taking a chance on something new. There’s the willingness to make something great happen.
GET RID OF ‘LACK MENTALITY‘
In relationships, the same holds true. We engage and through engagement; we are emotionally available. Opening our hearts and communicating our intentions. Acknowledging that emotional availability will be the key to pulling out all the stops. The thing is, we focus on the wrong things when it’s important to take a time-out, perhaps to even step back and reassess. From here, we have to eliminate anything that spells lack in our lives. Lack of love, lack of success, lack of money… lack. Get rid of anything that has you harboring in the state of not having, not being enough.
CONSTRUCTIVE THINKING GIVES WAY TO CUTTING EDGE
Constructive thoughts lead to not only positive thinking, but it can lead to wish-fulfillment. The process of constructive thinking leads to a journey which ushers not only stability at work, at play, and in love, but it will also deliver happiness. And who doesn’t want to be happy? Aligning your creativity with your dreams leads to something beautiful when you invest your time, energy, and resources. You adhere to the dream, accomplishing those very things that are essentially within reach. And this becomes a fundamental turning point. One which moves you along a path toward a happier life because you are living the dream. Happily creating the life you desire and deserve.
