Dreaming Big

Dreams. 

I'm not talking about the random shows your brain puts on for you during the night. I'm talking about that little voice inside of you that urges you to become the best person you can be. That sense of purpose that gives each day a sense of adventure. That personal calling in life which compels people to do great things. 

A lot of my friends have been talking about dreams and sharing what they want in life this week. It really is a profound thought to realize that we all have something that we were born to do. 

One of my friends challenged me to think about what our biggest dream is and write it out in detail. This really caught me off guard. Suddenly I realized that I don't spend the much time finding out who I want to. My meaningful moment on the path to awesome this week has been allowing myself to think about all the things I'll do one day. As I've devoted time to this challenge and thought about what I want in life more than anything I've learned so much more about my potential and the potential that lies in every human being. 

It's my personal belief that anybody who has made a lasting difference in this world has followed their own dream. They knew what they wanted and worked to get it. I am firmly convinced that anybody can decide to make a difference today and act on it. 

So what is my dream? I don't know all of it yet, but I'm learning. In a nutshell, I want to help spread truth across the world. I want to help people everywhere see that each of us has an enormous potential and the ability to reach for it. 

Now I ask you: What is your dream? Consider taking some time today to ponder that question and revisit what means most to you. And while you do that, here's a short video which illustrates another reason to live our dreams. Enjoy!

    I like the book "Dream Big but Beware of Dream Killers" by Todd Wilson. It helps me to be brave enough to just dream! and then make the dream come true!
