It all started with a dream!

       Walt Disney said something that is really noteworthy, “if you can dream it,you can do it.” I completely agree with all what he said, therefore a dream is the root of success. It is a strongly desired goal or purpose. So it can easily fetch our goals, however the thing is how can it fetch our goals? And what about failing, is it the end? Or is it just a new start? How did these successful people that made life easier for us start, and be who they are today?

     There are some steps to follow for achieving your main purpose (goal) after dreaming. First of all you need to deeply desire your goal, keep this constantly in your mind: weak desires always get weak results. You've got to REALLY want to achieve your goal.

       Second, you have to visualize yourself achieving your goal. Think about how your achievement would be like? How many changes will happen in your life?

        The next step is to start planing, make a plan with all steps for the path you need to follow! -A plan is a group of little goals that gather to form the grand goal, it explains in detail what needs to be done, when, how and it often includes predictions. Always remember a dream without a plan is just a wish.

         The step after is to commit to achieving the goal by writing it down
Lee Lacocca said, “The discipline of writing something down is the first step toward making it happen.” Always write down your goals, plans and your action steps. It is as if you are making a deeper commitment to goal accomplishment, so you can’t fool yourself later.

       Establish times for checking your progress in your calendar
system, make a time plan whether on the computer or written with your own hand writing. Adopt a pessimist’s viewpoint; something will and probably is going to go wrong. Take a look at all of the factors that are keeping you from accomplishing your goal and develop your plan to overcome them.

       What about failure, is it the end? Actually there is nothing called failure, it is something to alert you that there is an error in your planning. You won’t lose anything if you try again, failure is just a new start to achieve your goal in a better way. Regularly make sure you are making progress. If you are not making progress, hire a coach, tap into the support of your loved ones, analyze why the goal is not being met. Never ever allow the goal to just fade away.

      Thomas Alva Edison was one of the most well known inventors. He had a laboratory in the basement of his family’s home and spent most of his time experimenting. Edison will forever be remembered for his contributions to the incandescent light bulb. Thomas Edison was asked by a young reporter, if he felt like a failure and if he thought he should just give up by now. Edison replied, ”Young man,why would I feel like a failure? And why would i ever give up?”And shortly after that, and over 10,000 attempts, Edison invented the light bulb. See how many attempts?! And without his invention, our life would be so hard. He
made a huge change!

     Why not be like Thomas Edison and try again, dream then follow the steps and I’m sure your life is gonna turn to be so much better. Failure is never an obstacle to stop dreaming, yet it’s just an alert! “The dream in not what you see in sleep, dream is the thing which does not let you sleep”.
