Two Keys to Realising your Dreams!


Two Keys to Realising your Dreams!

 



Let Love Guide the Way

There is something magical that happens when our intention is filled with love with whatever we pursue in life. There is a joy and passion with which we operate in. Whenever opportunities come our way, we jump at them with open arms, rather than letting fear or anxiety push us away.
Everything happens in harmony with the fundamental laws of the universe and we attract all the people and circumstances into our life that are required to make our dreams a reality – yet whilst we set goals to continue progressing, each moment is the very definition of living the dream. We are motivated by sheer love and passion, rather than desire to be significant or fulfil any other ego related desires which, in the end, always fail to create lasting fulfilment.
Throughout your everyday lives, let love guide the way. Ask yourself, “what is it that I just love doing? What is it that I just lose all track of time and get completely lost in the moment in?”. When you answer that question honestly and sincerely, you will be setting up the foundations for an absolutely extraordinary quality of life!

Make it a must!

We often spend a lot of time trying to chase goals but whenever we get to those moments that there are a few obstacles, we falter on our quest. Sure there may be a number of reasons for that, but one of the most common is that it hasn’t converted from being a should to a must. Imagine for a moment we asked you to go out and make a million dollars in the next year – do you think you could do it?
I would guess that most of the readers wouldn’t back themselves to do so. Now we’ll have another go at asking the same question – only this time you have to make that money or else a family member will be unable to complete necessary treatments for their life threatening illness. I will guarantee that almost everyone will say yes to this. What’s the difference? Of course, not only do you have a strong enough reason, but you’ve made it a must.
When we make something an absolute must, we shut off any part of us that says we can’t do something and we will work at all costs to make it a reality. Regardless of what challenges we come across, we find a way to get through them because failure simply isn’t an option. We have laser pointed focus and we get the job done because we have to! Find a reason, make it a must, and watch your dreams become a reality

Born to Fly!!


Born to Fly


You were born with potential
You were born with goodness and trust
You were born with ideals and dreams
You were born with greatness
You were born with wings
You are not meant for crawling so don’t
You have wings…
Learn to use them and fly!
~Rumi

Imagine if you were living your dreams, following your passions and being as great as you can be. Perhaps you already are but if you are not, you really can transform your life! It is fully up to YOU to identify your calling and live a passionate and fulfilling life. Take a look at your life to discover what is driving your life, what areas of your life you are doing great in and where you are crawling. To get you started here are 3 suggestions to help you live BIG and FLY:
1. Become a Life Long Learner
Dedicate yourself to constant learning, improving and growing. Our parents bring us into this world, feed us and we grow automatically. We don’t have to do any work to grow up . We go to school and our teachers help us and push us to learn and grow. This makes us believe that growth is automatic, which is not the case! As soon as we finish school/university, the process of learning and growing stop for most people because there is no one out there to push them to learn. No one out there to push them to grow. Most people don’t read a book after finishing their formal education. Jim Rohn said “Formal education will make you a living. Self education will make you a fortune.” I love this. Don’t just depend on your formal education to live a great life. Commit yourself to personal growth and become a life long learner. Make a commitment to yourself to read for at least 20 minutes a day. Why? Because its your life and you are here to FLY. Here are few ideas to get you started:
– Read for at least 15 minutes everyday.
– Listen to audiobooks, podcasts in your car or during your workout.
– Observe successful people and learn from them.
– Take time to reflect on your own experiences.
– Never miss an opportunity to learn and grow.
2. Take Action
Taking action gives you energy. When you take action and accomplish something your body releases the feel good neurochemicals in your brain that gives you energy and happiness. One of the feel good neurochemicals Dopamine is released whenever you take an action or accomplish what you planned. This is the reason that you feel good when you do the work to achieve something. Have you ever felt motivated or energetic after mindless internet surfing, or watching mindless TV? No, didn’t think so? So don’t wait for the surge of motivation to do the work, instead execute your plan to get the energy and motivation. Most people wait to feel good before they start anything but not you, not anymore. You do the work, you take action to get energy, to feel good and stay motivated.
3. Stop taking life too seriously
Yes, simply lighten up and have fun. Make each day a fun day. Remember to have a good laugh and to put a smile on others faces. It really is that simple.
So there you go, three simple but powerful ways to live big. Remember you are one of a kind, there is no one out there like you. You were born to be GREAT. So be great. You were born with WINGS, so use them to FLY.
Be your best everyday!
