LET'S MAKE OUR DREAMS COME TRUE


LET’S MAKE OUR DREAMS COME TRUE


You are not happy unless you achieve something. But achievements do not happen by accident. A guided missile can only hit its target via constant monitoring. Realizing that, is an important breakthrough, because achievement is a matter of choice, not a matter of a certain upbringing or of a particular education. Many high achievers have been school dropouts with less privileged backgrounds. But they did have a relentless drive, second to none.


That’s why dreaming about achievements is always the first step. Your brain may actually not be able to tell the difference between reality and imagination. That’s O.K., as long as you keep yourself under control.

Your ability to ‘live up’ to a desired self-image is uniquely human. A winning self- image can replace a negative one, against all odds. As you ‘live out’ all that is associated with a self-image, you don’t only have a goal, but you become one. You can create your own self-image, regardless of past experiences of success or failure and regardless of how others happen to see you. This is the key to changing your life for the better. Nevertheless, such a change will only occur if the deep image of yourself has become similar to your external image. Plastic surgery alone, will not change how you feel about yourself or how others see you.


You are not ‘a’ machine. Sometimes you may feel, that you are reduced to one. Nowadays, it seems, that machines may ‘think’ the way you do! In any case, you do have a ‘mechanism’ of setting and achieving goals. You are your own machine and your own computer, already. All that’s required, is that you become and remain the operator of your own success mechanism.

PURSUING EXCELLENCE


PURSUING EXCELLENCE


Spend your time on what matters to you. The more you love doing something, the better you will be at it. Create your unique niche. Focus on what comes easily. No one does, what you do, quite like you do it. This will bring big rewards.

You will never be short of time, because you stop trying too hard at the wrong things. That’s why old-fashioned ‘time management’ and ‘prioritization’ is an abuse of your time. The new world demands specialization and an ability to be outstanding. ‘Keeping up’ is no longer enough. Mediocrity is no longer accepted and conformity is no longer rewarded. The way the current world works, is to do more of what you’re good at and the results will seem like magic.

The mentality of ‘working hard’ has driven society for generations, but the current information economy demands being yourself, pursuing excellence and becoming a star in your own way. The key point is, to create an exciting life with a well-defined purpose. You will also gain an abundance of time, as you focus on the right things, which will make you feel more relaxed. This has now become your life, nobody else’s.

Leave your former life behind. You cannot afford to go a day without thinking of how things should be, your new ‘reality’, just as you won’t go without breakfast. Pursuit of your daily dream becomes the norm. You get to the point, that you feel, that you can handle anything, including any doubts or fears. You’ve finally taken responsibility for the rest of your life!

THE MAGIC OF BELIEVING


THE MAGIC OF BELIEVING

Don’t let reality stand in the way of your dreams. Dreaming about getting a job done or wherever you want to be, is key and keeps you going. All odds may be against you, but not in your thoughts. All obstacles are temporary issues, that have to be dealt with. Persistence always wins in the end. Progress may seem slow at first, but keep moving. It’s better than standing still.

Once an image of the desired future condition becomes part of you, magic indeed happens. The universe operates on the basis of conscious and unconscious visualization all the time. It brings a sense of confidence and control over your future. Imagination of the seemingly impossible clears the way to what you want in life. It is like sowing the seeds for the upcoming harvest!

But you have to be ready to accept the outcomes. You have to feel, that you are worthy of getting all you are visualizing. You have to be determined to reach your goal, because you are convinced, that you are the best. This will make you even more focused on completing the tasks ahead. You feel, that you deserve that carrot at the end of the stick!

Take deep breaths regularly, until you feel relatively calm. You will then bring about a highly focused state, which will minimize the number of distractions. Keep hoping and praying constantly. This will attract the future the way you want it.

YOU WILL NOT REST


YOU WILL NOT REST

That’s right. You will not rest, until your mission is accomplished. But even then, there will be little time to enjoy the moment. Nothing is permanent. You will have to keep moving. ‘The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away’ (JOB 1:21). Therefore, all your hopes and prayers must continue, even after they seem to have been realised.


Once you have become aware of the basis of your existence, which is quite a feat , never look back. What does life expect of you? There is so much more to it than merely to survive. You have to try and fill the vacuum, if there is one. This is the path to the outstanding discovery of the purpose in life, unique to you specifically!

The will to live is part of human nature and it’s an absolute necessity to keep that alive by constantly working on mental images of how life could be, even in the most discouraging circumstances. It’s a terrible mistake to judge life. Life may not yet have delivered, what you have expected from it, but human beings possess the particular quality of free will. That comes with great responsibility! To control the urge for endless distractions, is a never-ending worry.



What a revelation it would be, if you could say: ‘This is me. This is what I am about’. Then you can appreciate the purpose of your OWN life, without being stuck in conformity. Comfort in boring conformity may do for awhile, but just imagine, what life could be like if you are BREAKING OUT! You could say: ‘we’ve got lift-off!’ (NASA - Houston). You could propel yourself into the orbit of the limitless universe with its endless opportunities.
