Why aren't you living your dreams?

As sure as the planets rotate around the sun, you were put on this planet for a reason. Think back to when you were a child. You had the biggest and best dreams. But somewhere along the path, into adult hood, you put your dreams aside, to work a regular job and do what "society" told you was best.
You see those with their own businesses and living their dreams and wish it was you. Well guess what, you can. We were born with the ability to achieve, to over come all obstacles. I'm living proof that what you put your mind to, you can achieve. I didn't have a red carpet laid out for me, nor a sliver spoon in my mouth, I'm a single mom and I have no support from outside sources. I'm building a business with no revenue, which many will tell you is impossible, but with my faith, my business is growing. The times get hard, I can contest to that, but hold on to what you know you are meant to do, hold on to your faith and you will make it though.

Here are a few of "my" tips of stepping out and living your dreams

1. Have a strong faith system. No matter who or what you believe in, believe in it. Have faith that your creator wants nothing but the best for you and he will see you through. When times get tough, your faith may be the only thing you have. To me, this is a necessity!

2. Discover your dreams. Somewhere through the years, you forgot what it is that you really wanted to do, what you are really good at. Take a weekend sabbatical and look deep inside you to find out where your passion lies. If you already know your passion, move on to number 3.

3. Have a plan. Passion without plan equals nothing. What are you gonna do with that passion? How are you going to turn that passion into revenue? What can you do with that passion that won't call for immediate start up revenue? Develop a business plan. If not a full plan, at least a one page plan that will put you on the right path. Is imperative to have a plan written down that you can refer to when needed.

4. Action. Step out on faith and move forth with your plan. You may have to take small steps at first, but make steps to move toward your goal.

As the process goes on, you may have to re-evaluate your plan, it will surely evolve, and grow into something bigger and better.

Leave this post today, knowing that you can accomplish anything your heard desires. If others can, why not you?
