Dare To Dream

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."
- Eleanor Roosevelt

When we are children, we all had some lofty dreams. Dreams of what we want from life and what we want our lives to be. Some kids dream of being an astronaut, others dream of being The President. Some dream of a living in a kingdom of riches while some dream of the person they will marry.

Whatever...we all had great big crazy dreams when we were kids.

So what happens to us as we grow older? What happened to all those wild and crazy dreams we had?

LIFE happened, THAT'S what. At least the life presented to us through our educational system and - DARE I SAY IT? - bad parenting. (OK, I'll cut the parents some slack because THEY have been the victims themselves, but just SOME slack) We go through our formative years in something called a school where we learn the basics of "readin' ritin' and rithmetic" but what we need to survive financially is mostly left up to fate. We get jobs that produce an income AND society teaches us to produce something called "Debt" giving us a life that doesn't match up to our BIG dreams so what do we do?

We adjust down our dreams to be more in line with our income. We tell ourselves that we don't REALLY want that dream house, car, career or __________________ (fill in the blank) because we have allowed someone else to determine our worth and...well, our dreams just didn't fit the plan that someone else has.

Wouldn't it make FAR more sense if this was to be reversed? Shouldn't we design a life instead of just making a living? Shouldn't we adjust and raise OUR INCOMES to support and be more in line with our dreams instead?




But we make excuses. We come up with all sorts obstacles. We convince ourselves that we don't dare to dream big because....what?

So what we have come up with is something that looks like the graphic below:

We have positioned our income and debt in a place where the obstacles we have made, prevent us from seeing our dreams.

Is this sounding even remotely familiar to anyone?

So how can we change this around? That's simple. "Dare To Dream" Make them dreams HUGE! Make them CRAZY! Make them WILD! Dare to dream as a child again. Let's make that graphic again. This time like this:

You see the difference? This is a way that, even where you're at in life right now, you can see OVER the self imposed obstacles - rendering them into nothing more than speed bumps - and STILL be able to see your dream. Eventually your dream will eliminate the obstacles and your income will come more in line with your BIG dreams.

Now just sit back and dream. Dream of what you want out of the next year. Make it HUGE and then go for it. I can help you along the way. Contact me at davecapra@comcast.net

Mindset Matters

Sometimes it may feel uncomfortable to change.

Change can be where your biggest breakthrough’s are in life and business. Be ready and open to step out of your comfort zone. Don’t look for the negative in change, look for the positive.

Do you spend time with people who affect your mindset?

You may have also heard that your income is dictated by the people you spend time with. A mindset of a millionaire is different, they think differently. Surround yourself with big thinkers, positive people and entrepreneurs that have already reached a goal you are aiming for.

Are you looking back at past experiences that may of been negative in your life? Your beliefs determine your behavior. Change your beliefs so you focus on goals and look ahead. It’s almost impossible to move forward if you are stuck thinking about something negative in the past.

If you look at the word “attraction” at the end of the word is action. There has to be a balance between mindset and action. As you start to take action resources will show up in your life. Your vibration and confidence will begin to rise. Taking action shows that you are confident in your projects.

What is your purpose?

What drives you to get up early in the morning and go to bed late at night? Deep down everyone has a purpose. If you are not sure what it is, you need to find it. Everyone has some unique gift. What are you passionate about? Also, you must limit your excuses. It’s one of the biggest success eliminators.

Don’t look at change as bad, change is good. Be careful at what you spend your time thinking about. Make sure you are taking action daily. Even if it’s small steps, be consistent. Lastly, find out what your purpose is and focus all of your energy on it.
