FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS - DREAMS DO COME TRUE. Go ahead and try. You will SUCCEED - READ ON
Do you ever get tired in life? Tired from your: job, school, your neighborhood, your "responsibilities", the people you hang around, those close to you? All of us have been tired at one point or another in our lives. Many days for the vast majority of people on the planet seem like they are unhappy, and enduring life to the bitter end. More focus goes toward getting through the day without having a headache then what we as humanity desire the most. What is this desire? Happiness and fulfillment in life.
Happiness is defined by Websters Dictionary as "good fortune : prosperity a happiness, 2a : a state of well-being and contentment : joy : a pleasurable or satisfying experience I wish you every happiness in life."
Why are so many people unhappy? This is the question that needs to be pursued. The answer? People are unhappy because they feel bogged down with life. People were made to be on the go, seeking new experiences in life, not just a dull, simple, boring existence. How can we change our life to fall into line with happiness you ask? This is simple. You don't have to start out by jumping into a lifestyle you thought you always wanted. NO. Just start out small. Starting out means actually verbalizing your dreams and desires with those around you that care about you, and whom you know will listen.
After telling your loved one your desires begin to take charge of your own life again, like you did in the past. Say for instance you drive a delivery truck and feel like you have no time to do anything else, let alone spend time with your family. If your desire is to go to real estate school, then look into it and sign up for 1 simple introductory course (not online). When you begin your course you are with other students that took initiative like you did. You will be able to relate to these individuals which will bring about a change of attitude. Suddenly you will find yourself saying "I Can" and "I will". Peers, or in other cases, people who have similar interests are encouraged when around like minds. This is infectious and you in turn become excited about the possibilities that are in front of your door step.
Its all about the mind. You take control of your thoughts. Don't let your thoughts control you. If you say "I can't do that" everyday, then chances are you probably won't. Begin to say "I Can" and you will start to believe what you are saying is true. Take Charge. Do you think Bill Gates ever said "I can't"? I'm sure he did some, its human. After awhile Bill Gates believed in himself enough to take initiative and begin a little manufacturing plant out of his garage. Today he is one of the richest men in the World.
How much is Bill Gates worth today? Here is a short quote from wikipedia telling us just how much he is worth
"William Henry Gates III is the co-founder of Microsoft and is an American business magnate, investor, author and philanthropist. In 1975, Gates and Paul Allen co-founded Microsoft, which became the world's largest PC software company. Wikipedia
Born: October 28, 1955 (age 61), Seattle, Washington, United States
Height: 1.77 m
Net worth: 88.7 billion USD (2017)" Forbes
That's right people. Today Gates is worth a staggering $88.7 BILLION Dollars. Do you think something like this is possible for you? You will never know unless you try, try, and try again. Find what you are good at and begin to do it. Start coming up with ideas on doing what you want to do at work, home, and walking around your neighborhood. Take a pad of paper with you and jot down your ideas and come up with a realistic plan that will give you an hour or two extra a day. You can then begin to implement your plan and strategy.
