What is your dream?

Do you even have a dream?

As I've discussed on the home page, I went for a long time without a real dream. Without something that I really wanted to do with my life.

Without something that would challenge me. Without something that would give me a sense of purpose in life.

Without something that would challenge me to reach beyond my comfort zone and accomplish something truly worth accomplishing.

That's a lot to do without.

What are you doing without?

Do you just go through the motions in life with nothing to challenge you to reach for excellence and strive for something that will change you, your friends, your community, your family, or some other group of people important to you?

Do you have something that has been nagging at you for years -- or decades -- and you just haven't stepped up and done your best to make it happen?

Or, are you much further along? Have you started making plans on how you will make your dream come to life? Perhaps, you've already started working on that plan and you're ready to tell the world what you're going to accomplish.

Maybe you're making progress, but you've hit a slump and you need help or advice on how to deal with an obstacle.

Perhaps you don't even know how to get started.

Listen to what Zig Ziglar says about your potential

Zig Ziglar -
You Have Unlimited Potential Inside

Zig Ziglar is one of the best motivational speakers of all time. People who follow his advice have built successful careers and have found ways to make their dreams a reality.

I have read Zig's books and listened to his recordings. They have helped me to broaden my thinking, learn how to identify the parts of my dreams I really want to achieve, and then how to set goals and work to make them real.

Your dream starts to become a reality the moment you commit to yourself that you're not just going to imagine it, but that you are going to plan how to achieve it and then start working that plan.

Perhaps you don't know how to do that. When I was in my 20s and started to dream about becoming a computer consultant, I had no idea how to get started. So, I started reading and listening to people who were successful in their career. Zig Ziglar was one of the best. He and Napoleon Hill gave me insight into what to do and encouragement to do it.

I recommend See You at the Top, 25th Anniversary Edition by Zig Ziglar and Think and Grow Rich, by Napoleon Hill to help you get started.

Earl Nightingale -
The Power From Within

Earl Nightingale, the founder of Nightingale Conant, has a lot to say about how you can learn to control your thoughts, change your circumstances, and make your dream real. Here's a video, about 10 minutes long, where he shares some of his thoughts on how all of us are living below our potential and what we can do to make our dreams real.

What is your dream?

This site will grow only with your participation. Nobody wants to hear me talk about nothing but my dream month after month after month.

What is your #1 most important dream? What are you doing (or going to do) to make it real?

Maybe you haven't identified your purpose in life and don't have a major goal to achieve. That's okay.

I'm sure, however, that you have something you are working to accomplish now and maybe we can help you do it.

Some sample dreams that are shared by many people:

• "Start your own business" -- Not everyone is suited for owning and managing a business. What does it take to create and manage a business of your own? Is this for you? Here is some Home Business Information to help you get started.
• "Get out of debt" -- How can you achieve your full potential if you are drowning in a sea of debt? As your debt grows, you continue to mortgage your future and decrease your options. How are you going to get out of debt?
• "Further your education" -- So, you want to go back to school. Why? What do you want to accomplish? What will you study? How do you plan to use what you learn? What obstacles are you trying to overcome?
• Visit your Favorite Travel Destinations -- Do you want to travel and see the world? Or, would you rather help others by telling them more about your corner of the planet? What do you want to learn about traveling and what can you tell us about your travel adventures?
• Start or expand "your family" -- Perhaps you'd rather improve your relationships or strengthen your family ties. What are your goals for your personal and family life?
• What do I want? -- Maybe you know there should be more in your life, but you don't really know what it is. That makes it hard to achieve. Mel Robbins offers some ideas that can help you discover what you want.
• What is your most important dream? -- There are thousands of things you may want to do that aren't listed here -- yet. Tell us your dream.

You're welcome to tell us about your goals and plans and what we can do to help you achieve them.

Where can we be a year from now if you and others come and share your dreams and work together to help each other succeed? I truly believe we can make substantial progress on achieving our dreams -- whether they are huge dreams or small goals -- in as little as a year. But, and this is very important, you must Act On Your Dream!

Share your dreams, goals, and plans with others and cooperate to help us all achieve our dreams.

Where do I go from here?
