How to Become the Person of Your Dreams
"What would you like to be when you grow up?" I bet you heard
this question asked many times when you were growing up. But
have you given this question any thought lately? Just because we
are grown is no reason for us to stop dreaming.
Different people have different dreams. So what's your
aspiration? Do you want to become a doctor, lawyer, pilot, or
entertainer? Or would you want to be like Tom Cruise or Bill
Gates? Let me tell you now, you can become pretty much anything
you want to become.
You can be anything you want to be as long as you put
your mind and heart to it. There are a few limitations. The elderly
should stay out of the space program and the wheelchair
bound should avoid trying out for pro basketball. Let's never be
stupid and waste life on a pipe dream.
BUT almost EVERYTHING is wide open out there. If someone
else can do it, just about anyone can do it.
You must have the desire and passion to know everything you can
about your better life ahead..
If you can have a real person to emulate or
look up to, the better. For example, you may see yourself as
Michael Jordan (for basketball), Mariah Carey (for singing), or
Heide Klum (for modeling). Feel, talk, and act as if you're that
person you're emulating. You'll quickly acquire the behavior and
qualities of that person. This formula works....sometimes too well.
Take motivated action and start pursuing your dreams. Don't
wait for everything to be perfect. That will never happen. There
will always be bumps and obstacles ahead. The important thing is
to start right now and adjust along the way.
Persist until the very end. Never let failures distract you.
Failure does NOT MATTER.
Just keep moving yourself to the target. If you think that a
task seems impossible to accomplish, banish that thought
immediately.
It's just a stupid emotional feeling. Dump it.
Your mind has the capacity to bring into reality
virtually anything you desire.
As long as you stay focused and patient on
your objective despite any setbacks or discouragements, you will
become successful much sooner than you may think.
Powerful Ways To Fire Up Your Motivation
It's so difficult to go on when everything seems to fail. I've been
there and so have you.
Are there times in your life when you really want to call
it "quits" because you just can't see any good results from all
the hard work you've done?
Stop and breathe. That's NORMAL
Never ever think of giving up. Take all negative words out of your mental
dictionary and focus on the solutions with utmost conviction and
patience. The battle is never lost until you've abandon your
vision.
But what if you're really exhausted physically, mentally and
most of all emotionally?
Welcome to the real world.
You are doing what you don't want to do and don't feel like
you have the energy to do what you DO want to do.
Again, normal. BUT you MUST train yourself to overcome
this inertia. It's a dream stealer!
What follows are some sources of motivation to
prompt you in reaching the peak of accomplishment...
