Dreams are passions in disguise; take a minute to ponder this idea. If you set goals every year how many times have those goals come from your dreams and passions? More than likely the majority of them are God-given dreams! How exciting this is, and sometimes your dreams and passions can actually be wonderfully scary!
Our dreams stir within our souls, they are calling out for action.
If you focus on the scary part of your dreams, you will find yourself struggling with your dreams and could actually talk yourself out of them. I want to encourage you to embrace your dreams, to Dare to Dream! Mike Jones’ quote that says “A mind focused on doubt and fear cannot focus on the journey of victory.” This fits perfectly here because it’s possible you have doubt or fear, therefore you’re struggling with your dreams.
Check out these tips to facilitate you in overcoming the doubt and negative self-talk that rolls around in your head. This will help you dream again.
1. Speak out loud that you believe in yourself when it comes to your dreams.
2. Embrace your “God-confidence!
3. Push your fears. Discover what your fears are and begin intentionally working through them. It’s possible your fears could be from lack of knowledge or the fear of failure. You need to remember that failure is not the end of the world. It’s also not the end of your dream. Find a way to overcome the fear and you’ll have success.
4. Keep Dreaming! Realizing that dreams are nothing to be afraid of, rather they are to be embraced in order to become a reality in your life by taking each faith filled step toward them!
If you dare to dream, make it happen in whatever way you can. Dreams are meant to be fun and exciting, and we recognize that they can be scary; however, they are never impossible to reach.
Another great tip for you when you begin feeling the fear and overwhelm of your dream, try breaking your dream down into smaller dreams or steps, without rushing it. It will come to fruition when you work it and don’t stress through the process!
