To Accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream, not only plan, but also believe. -Unknown-

How many of you are waiting for something great to happen to you or for you before you will do anything about your dreams?
I have a friend, Raven Glover, who often says, “Don’t wait to be great, act now and the greatness will follow.”
Les Brown says, “You have greatness in you!”
I am one of those individuals who felt, “If I wait my turn, good things will happen and everything will work out the way I want.”
Of course, nothing came of that. How could it? Nothing happens if you don’t know what you want. Wishing and dreaming is not enough. I had to learn the hard way. That little dream that was tucked away deep in my heart, was waiting on me to realize it was still there if I would only grab a hold of it and start to do something about it.
It took me some time to get going, because that dream was so far back and had started to feel discouraged that I would even remember it was there. It had begun to shrink away. The result being, it took time to rebuild it to the point I could grab it and start acting on it.
What about you? Is there a dream you once wanted, but fail to act on and now you think it is too late? Reach within and dust it off. It’s never too late to go after your dream.
I had to learn to dream again, to set plans in motion and take the necessary steps to make that dream a reality. If it can happen for me at my age, it can work for you. So, how about it? Dream again, make plans, and take the action needed to live your dream. I am acting on mine, you too can accomplish great things. All you must do, is act.
Until next time, take care. lw
