Daring to dream is one of the things that you can do to make any goals that you have come true. When you picture your life going just the way you’ve always wanted or envisioning that one big thing that you’ve always wanted to accomplish - that can be really motivational. It can also be really overwhelming. Do you know that one of the biggest killers of dreams - is fear. All too often we let fear keep us from dreaming. Maybe it’s the memory of past failures that hold us back from setting our sites too high. But this kind of thinking can become a pattern that limits what you can achieve. To live a truly abundant life, the life you’re dreaming of, it’s important that you stop letting fear keep you from dreaming big.
So what do we do about that? Well, what you think is what you become. That’s not just a popular saying. It’s something that’s based in reality. It might seem like just wishful thinking to believe that you achieve GREAT things in you life just by envisioning them into reality - there actually is science that supports this. When you visualize what you wish for in life and then actually start taking action on the small little steps and pieces - this becomes a powerful force in your brain chemistry. Visualization can actually have an effect on your neural pathways and connections, that’s science not wishful thinking. When you repeatedly see yourself accomplishing something or achieving your deepest hope or dream, your brain actually starts to believe that thing is real. And because your brain believes it, you’re more likely to actually act on it in real life.
What’s even more encouraging is that as you allow yourself to dream bigger, your whole perspective shifts and you now start to think more positively and with less fear because your focus has changed. You’re now seeing the big beautiful picture instead of the limited point of view of the past. So instead of keeping yourself stuck in fear of what might never be, you’re able to look at life more realistically and that small world before your dreams? It just got automatically bigger.
Now you can SEE the potential of what the world has to offer. A wealth of possibilities just opened up for you because you shifted your mindset and you dared to think bigger. And that rut you were stuck in? It’s GONE. And now you find yourself being proactive and productive and really making headway in your goals. And you also are able to look at all of the other people in the world that are making things happen and KNOW that you can do that, too. Because all of these baby steps that you’re taking are adding up to something BIG. So my encouragement for you today is to DREAM BIG. And I can’t wait to see what happens for you!
