Rich Beyond Words

Having a dream, in my not so humble opinion is necessary. For if we don’t have a dream then we have got nothing.

Since childhood I felt like I was in a dream. This obviously caused me some problems, especially in school.

I just couldn’t take the whole concept of life so seriously. I thought I was here to have fun and not be reprimanded about facing up to reality. Why were grown ups always so serious? What was wrong with my reality anyway?

So it’s no wonder we have difficulty keeping up with the Jones’s when in our hearts it’s not even what we are yearning for. Seriously I’ve never yearned to have my bank manager’s job. Luckily I’ve never been bothered by the Jones’s, but this doesn’t mean I haven’t had my share of envy, jealousy and general bad vibes which is another chapter. As much as I like my bank manager – she’s a friendly person and always has a smile for me – I know I would hate sitting in that office all day in that uncomfortable designer wear and those heels. I just love my flip flops and cotton wraps even though I can afford larney shoes and gear. It’s just not me.

Ever since I can remember it was my dream to be free of trapments (well that’s what they are for me). I never saw myself slogging in a office or doing some job to for a living. I’ll admit it caused me difficulty at times. Many times I’ve been without funds because I wouldn’t “work”. I was reprimanded by my parents for not having something safe and secure.  I ask you what is safety and security? Going off to prison so you can earn a living? No thanks.

Contrary to what other parents did – opt in to the “secure world” I became even more determined to live my dream when my twin girls were born.  The minute I held those babes in my single mom ’s arms I  knew that I had to be an example. And that example was not one of  giving in to a system which tells you to “get real and get a job.” Besides I wanted to spend time with them and not give them to people whose beliefs collided with mine.

In a nutshell:

• Be true to yourself.
• Acknowledge the things that turn you on (if they’re bloody and dirty, go get help).
• Make clear pictures in your mind with you playing the lead role.
• Watch what you eat – huh?
  Seriously food affects our body like nothing else, including emotions, feelings, blood cells and of course health. The purer your body the clearer your dream becomes. No joke. That clarity enables you to see what path you have to take to get to your dream.
• Get a coach – no I don’t mean take the bus – I mean a real coach, somebody to help you focus. Start off with somebody like Rebecca Fine from the Science of Getting Rich Networks who offers a great course called The Practical Genuises Course. It comes with step by step instructions and you choose what to pay.
• Say to yourself I am living my dream – even if you think it’s stupid.  Wouldn’t you regret it, if  saying something to yourself prevented you from living your dream?
• Take action in the direction of your dream – no use just dreaming about it- after all you want to start living your dream, so action is of utmost importance. The action part tells the dream that you’re ready for it.
• Wasting time kills dreams – each second spent constructively gets you closer to your dream.
• Keep on keeping on.
