Motivation Monday:
Its IMPOSSIBLE expect to see “positive” changes in your life if you align yourself with “negative or doubtful” people. - Sirquon
Who are the dream stealers in your life? What are dream stealers, you ask? Dream stealers are the people who exert “any” energy to sell the notion that you'll never reach your dreams.
These are the “family and friends” who know that you own a grocery store, but they never set foot in it, let alone buy anything!! Sad right? They're the people that encourage you to “play it safe”: to get a nice safe job with benefits (no such thing), to vacation in Arizona instead of Paris, France, these people are clearly incapable of even think any bigger than the life they live. Does any of this sound like people around you?
There are two different types of dream stealers: 1. Concerned Dream Stealers-These are the people who love you so much that they can't stand to see you fail. They want you to have a nice, safe, and secure life. They truly have your best wishes at heart but don't understand that for you to be happy you have to reach for your dreams.
2. Spiteful Dream Stealers-These are the people that life has passed by. They gave up any opportunity to live their dreams and they can't stand to see others succeed where they failed.
Remember it's Your Dream!! Sometimes dream stealers come in the form of people who want to collaborate. These are the people that want to tell you how to reach your dreams, even though they've never reached their own dreams……….. The best strategy is to listen politely, nod, and thank them for their interest. Then go ahead and live your dreams on your own terms!!
Make a list of the dream stealers in your life. Be honest and include your mother, your father, and any family member or friend that do not support your dreams. Once you've come up with the list, write down how each of them impede your progress and reserve them to the “balcony” of that dream….not the front row!!
There are only two types of people in your life…..Those who help you “expand your vision” or “choke out you dream”. Personally, I need to run with visionaries…..
Be relentless towards your dreams......
