You know where you are.
You have a destination in mind of where you want to go. A direction in which to travel towards.
This is difficult because everybody has different
dreams. I am sure some of your dreams
are so limited and controlled because you haven’t gotten the true depth and
breadth of this concept yet to understand how big and totally crazy you could
get with your dreams.
What ever your dream is that is your destination you want to
head towards! Notice I didn't say that
you want to get to, or achieve, or arrive at.
It’s the direction of travel for your life. The path you will create and walk through
your daily choices, taking at least a small step in that direction every day
with your choices and decisions. A
course of direction for each week, to be compounded by months and years.
Success is the journey towards a Goal, not the destination. By heading towards your goal you are being
successful no matter where you are and what you are doing in your every day
life. The only way you will get lost or
fail is when you lose sight of your destination, your dream, and quit taking
baby steps in that every day.
There
is an ancient proverb that says a journey of a thousand miles begins with a
single step.
Once you start on your path, each day with with each step,
your life will begin to be transformed.
People you need will come into your life. Obstacles will arise that at first seem to
block your progress only to be realized later they are just obstacles to be negotiated, stepped around, climbed over to continue on your journey. These are actually the spice of your life,
your growing experiences, the chances and signals you need to learn, expand,
change in order to continue on the path.
They are not meant to crush your dreams in spite of how overwhelming
they seem appear when they materialize in your path.
Opportunities will emerge.
Some like fresh fruit lying under a tree just needing picked up. Others dangling begging to be picked from the
trees. In time your perspective about
things will begin to change. As you see
progress towards your destination. As
you begin to believe as you see yourself near your goal, even in the slightest
of ways. Those perceptions and preconceived notions of the world will change.
That will cause your reality you live and work in to change.
From your thinking, ideas and dreams, to using those to
direct your daily decisions while making your way along your path towards your
goal. Your life will transform as your
reality changes. You will have focus in
your direction, control in the transformation of your reality by changing your
perceptions and moving towards your dreams.
Once you determine your destination, by figuring out your
dreams of choice, then it is a simple matter of filling in the blanks, figuring
out the baby steps, from where you are to where you want to go. You won’t know all the steps at first, or see
all the set backs and obstacles which will arrive along the journey. You may even have trouble coming up with the
initial baby steps that will lead you in the right direction. You may take some wrong turns along the way
or be side tracked by people, circumstances, life in general, or the wrong
preconceived notions your still clinging to which are baring your way because
your traveling towards a destination from untrue beginning location.
Until your perceptions of reality line up more accurately
with the true reality of the world your moving towards your destination from a
false starting point. The more honest
you are about your perceptions of reality, until you expand your horizons, walk
your path, adjust your perceptions of your reality the more directly you will
move towards your destination.
Remember the movement, no matter how small,
towards your destination is the act of being successful. Success is not reaching your destination, it’s
the journey towards it. Your success is
your journey through life every day getting closer to your dreams. Hopefully, by the time you reach your
destination, you have new and higher goals your walking towards. This is important, because too many times
people reach the goal they were working towards and their life doesn't miraculously change and they are left feeling let down.
They are left felling disillusioned and wanting. The closer you get to your goals the more you
should continually adjust your goals higher and further out of your reach. Your success is the journey, not the destination!
