My great friend and mentor Les Brown says "It takes
someone with a vision of the possibilities to attain
new levels of experience. Someone with the courage to
live his dreams."
For years I buried my dreams with a drug addiction
bad relationships and plain old bad decisions.
We also bury our dreams in other ways. We hide under
the guise of responsibility.
We bury our dreams with excuses such as I'll get to
my dreams after the kids graduate from school. I will
work on my dreams after I save x amount of dollars.
We also let other people shovel crap on our dreams.
We hang around negative dream stealers who's
always ready to tell you what can't be done.
And they are quick to point out your weaknesses and
past mistakes. After they get done piling on the mess.
We pick up the shovel in our minds and continue to
bury our dreams.
Listen to me stop shoveling right now! It is
never too late to dig your way out.
The first thing you must do is stop thinking with
your head and start believing what's in your heart.
All you need to do is dream again.
Rekindle the fire that is still burning inside.
Become that little kid again that knew the sky
was the limit.
You could be what you wanted to be then and I've
got news for you. You can be what you want
to be now.
