Dreams are Goals

       I was with a group of children one morning, and we were talking about character building. I asked them what it means to have a dream, and most of them responded by saying that a dream was something that would be great in life but impossible to achieve.

My heart broke.

I don’t look at a dream that way.

I am a dreamer. I can tell you how I want my business to grow; I can tell you what I want it to look like in ten years. I can tell you where I want it to be. Maybe it will happen, maybe it won’t, but I will make damn sure I am working towards it, that I don’t just think “it would be nice, but it is not going to happen.”

I make things happen.

Law of Attraction is an interesting concept, and although parts of it I like, there are missing parts.

Law of Attraction is a theory by William Walker Atkinson in 1906 that, in a nutshell, says that if we think something will happen, if we approach something with the right mindset, it will eventually happen to us. Although the nutshell version seems beautiful, the missing component is making an opportunity and working towards a dream or a goal.

The more we approach life with a closed-mindset and negative approach, the more likely negative things will happen to us, not because the events weren’t going to happen, but because how we look at them determines how we feel about them.

Here is my dream.

Which I turn into a goal.

I approach it with an open-mindset, positive mindset, determined mindset, and working mindset to achieve the dream eventually.

I added mindsets. Why?

Because I need to see the lessons, work on the mistakes, build up from the failure and understand my worth. I needed to add those other mindsets to the Law of Attraction that applies to me.

In the end, a dream isn’t impossible; a dream can transform into a goal if you open your mind long enough to see your own potential.

  1. I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the layout of your blog?

    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect
    with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or 2 images.
    Maybe you could space it out better? 0mniartist asmr

  2. When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now
    each time a comment is added I get three emails with the same comment.
    Is there any way you can remove me from that service?
    Bless you! 0mniartist asmr
