What Are Your Dreams?

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.

  • Emotions Beat Intentions Every Time

    Are intentions important? Absolutely. Is there something more important though? Something that will thwart your intention? Uh-huh. It’s how you feel. You can intend all you want, but if you don’t feel like doing something it won’t happen. Without the emotional energy, in the moment, intentions are useless, worthless.
