Dreams need Action

     I saw a poster recently it said "Dream until your dreams come true." It's a cool saying but lacks substance. Dreams won't come true unless you take some action, so do something to make your dreams come true. We dream about many things, achieving financial success, winning an athletic competition, finding true love. You name it and people will be dreaming about it.

     If just dreaming about it was all you needed to do, then we would all be rich, famous and talented. I'm sure you've heard about those lucky few that win the lottery, but don't you want to have more control over your destiny than luck. There are lucky people but when you look into it, you find more often than not, the person worked hard to reach their goal. Luck may have played a role but it was persistence that opened the door. There is a saying that sums it up, "The harder you work the luckier you get."

     The dream is the end goal, but without the journey, it wouldn't be as sweet. That's why some people that achieve an unexpected goal without effort don't appreciate the dream. Your achievement of making your dream a reality is heightened by the journey that got you there. Overcoming struggles make you a worthy dream warrior. Your journey may even be more important than the dream. I've been on many journeys and I still have many dreams but my best memories came from my journeys. "Just Saying...."
