How To Make Your Dreams Come True

How To Make Your Dreams Come True
By Carol Pagan

“Anything you can conceive and believe, you can achieve.”

BUT
Yeah, they don’t tell you about the BUT. It doesn't sell well.

What’s the BUT?

It takes time and effort.

Ouch!

All those magic seekers just clicked away en-mass. Oh well. For those of you who are still here, take heart. You can achieve almost anything if you are willing to pay the price. The bigger the dream, the bigger the price.

Say you want to be a millionaire, but right now you don’t have 2 quarters to rub together. Is becoming a millionaire impossible? No. Is it probable? No.

Why?

It takes time and effort. It may take 1 year, or 2, or 5, or 20.

I read somewhere that the average millionaire took 20 years to get there. And that may seem like an impossibly long time.

Let’s take another perspective. If you are 40 or over, you have most likely worked 20 years. And you are facing at least another 20 years of work still. If you were to become a millionaire anytime within that 40-year period, that would be great, wouldn’t it?

Since Bill Gates is a prime example in today’s world, let’s talk about him for a minute. How long did it really take him to accomplish what he did? How many years did he putter with computers before he set out to make it his life’s work?

There was another secret buried in that last paragraph. Did you catch it?

All dreams are born out of something you love. If you are chasing money for the sake of money, you will never be happy. But if you are working with something you love, then the money is a nice bonus.

You’ve heard story after story about people who’ve goneafter their dream. Walt Disney, Fred Astaire, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Edison, Billie Holiday, Usher, Tiger Woods … the list is endless.

And dreams aren’t always about making money. You might like to help starving kids, or survivors of natural disasters, or abused women. You might love boats, or cars, or golf, or bowling.

When you’re doing something you love, you can do it for 20 years if that’s what it takes.

What is one thing you would really love to do in your lifetime? Do it. No matter how long it takes.
