Wake Up and Dream

How come so many adults stopped dreaming?
Is there an expiring date on dreams?
And how come that most people who stopped dreaming, seem not really awake?
Or do you perceive someone who is trying to live the life according to his dreams as unrealistic?
And is being realistic then a good or a bad thing and what about dreaming then: is that good or bad?

My whole life I have been trying to shape reality to fit my dream. And dreams always come a size to big so you can grow into them.

For me dreaming and making your dream part of your reality is what life is all about. I see life as one big safari (Swahili for journey). I have been looking out for the big 5 to help me fulfill my dreams.

And by the way, it really doesn’t mean that just because I am wondering that I am lost.

1 Love: whatever you do, do it with love
It is very important to do the things you do with love and respect. Honor yourself by respecting and loving what you do and how you do it. Loving yourself, loving what you do and loving how you to it is the key to successfully living the life of your dreams.

 Vulnerability: share your doubts with your circle of trust
Believe that you are worthy of what you dream for. Don’t be afraid to be criticized. Dreams lay beyond fear. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
Yes we are vulnerable and sharing our vulnerability with people we trust is more powerful then ditching our dreams.

Do not let anybody tell you your dream is not worthy or you are not worthy your dream. You are allowed to say I have a dream! You are enough.

5 Do: just start
Never stop chasing your dreams before you know it, they start to haunt you. You can burry your dreams and pretend you are leading a responsible adult life, you will be in for a surprise, your dreams will find you and haunt you down.

Whatever you dream, you can begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)

Believe in your dreams but throw out the fairy with the magic wand, she really doesn’t exsits… it really is up to you!

With love,
Sarah

2 Courage: have the courage to be you
Courage is derived from the Latin cor which means heart. Follow your heart, it will lead you to your dream. Have the inner strength to commit and connect with what you truly desire. Have the courage to live your dream and live it aligned with who you are. Let go of who you should be and start to become who you truly are.

4 Connect: connect and commit to yourself
Commit to yourself and make the connection with what is really important for you . Dare to commit and dare to connect with your dream! Remind yourself of the journey that you were born to take. Even if it requires a pause, some backwards steps or sideways shuffling, know that only you know which path is right for you.
