In Others’ Words: The Reality of Dreams

I’m all about dreams … and I know what it takes to make dreams a reality. 

I love the beginnings of dreams. The “what ifs” and the “maybes” and the daring it takes to reach for that oh-so-personal wish upon a star. I get just as excited when someone else shares the beginning of their dream with me as I do about my own dream-just-starting-to-come-true.

The middles of dreams? Now that’s when you sweat. That’s when you have to decide if you’re up to the hard work of seeing this dream through to the end. How determined are you? Determined enough not to quit when the first glow wears off your dream and you’re staring at all you have to do … all you have to give up … all the obstacles labeled “YOU CAN’T” … and you’re not so sure you can anymore?

The ends of dreams? Sometimes, you celebrate because you achieve your dream — the sweat, determination, and hard work pay off. But sometimes the end of a dream can break your heart. You’ve worn yourself out working toward your dream. And it ends. Your dream fails as they sometimes do and you have to be brave enough to let your dream go. And brave enough to dream again. And sometimes … sometimes, the dream is resurrected even better than you originally imagined.

In Your Words: Where are you with your dream: beginning, middle, or end? Do you believe in the magic of dreams — and what does sweat, determination, and hard work look like for you when it comes to pursuing your dream?
