5 Aspiring Thoughts To Keep You Reaching For Your Dreams
By Ima Balles
That’s the quote I instilled in myself as the quarter life for me is nearing. You might think that you are either too young or too old to achieve the things you want in life and there will be days wherein you’ll feel that life is going too slow, and at times it’s passing by too fast. Never fear my dear for it’s all too normal, and the good news is that, you can do so much than just worry!
1. BELIEVE!
Your own true power starts with believing in yourself and your dreams. No goal is ever achieved with self-doubt and holding-back. If you keep thinking that you can’t, you won’t even get the strength you need to take the first step. You should empower your dreams by believing in it; Remember when Peter pan and the others chanted “I do believe in fairies!” Tinkerbell, was revived by the people who believed in her, so are your dreams. If you believe, others will also believe in it.
2. People will be there for you if you want them to.
There are things you can and can’t do alone. You have to come out of your shell and welcome people into your world. Reach out & be approachable. Make friends. Help others. It doesn’t have to be a hundred facebook friends or instagram followers, you just have to create genuine connections, and you’ll be surprised how it will be so meaningful to you when the going, unexpectedly, gets tough.
3. With great dreams, comes great responsibility.
Dreams do not move on their own; you have to work for it to happen. I know, I know, some would say that no matter what you do or don’t do, if some things are meant for you, it will be, but it’s better that you do something to achieve it, than later regret doing nothing.
4. Welcome change with open arms.
Days will surely come that you will have to do what you haven’t done before, make sure you’re ready to welcome change with an open mind and an open heart. For sure you two will get along easier, hence change is inevitable.
5. Always be optimistic, all the time!
It is scary as much as it is exciting going through the new chapter of your life, especially when you’re looking at it as the turning point of your existence. Let me tell you that in life, your own happiness will depend on how you look at things, how you react to events, and how you handle different situations. Invest more on looking at the brighter side of things, so when the time comes that things aren’t served to you on a silver platter like how you imagined, you will never disappoint yourself so bad, that it hurts. Smile and brighten up, you never know whose life you can change with that smile along the way!
