What Are Your Dreams?

ByMatthew

We all have dreams.  But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort. – Jesse Owens

And how clear are they?

These “dreams?”

If you have goals, then you’ve (actually) clarified your dreams.

If not, your dreams are in danger of becoming fantasies.

(And fantasies never come true.)

*  *  *

Get clear on what you want.

Transform your dreams into goals.

Then, do what Mr. Owens suggests,* and make your dreams into reality.

*****

* i.e.: work your a$& off.
