Dear Mike,

"Before you can make a dream come true, you must first have one."

~Ronald McNair

Today’s quote speaks to the necessity of developing worthy goals based on what is truly meaningful and inspirational to you. These worthy goals are your “dreams”, a visualized ideal destination you can remain focused on regardless of obstacles and distractions. It is important to take the time to reflect on what is important to you and develop inspirational desired outcomes. Without that effort, many people find themselves working hard on whatever their circumstances put in front of them, usually someone else’s dream, and then wonder why they struggle to obtain success.

Take the time to develop a dream you truly believe in, and you will find you’ll have the energy and persistence to keep up the efforts necessary to make your dream come true.

Reader Feedback

I love this focus on hope and your quote is so true we need each other to make a difference in the world:

"The path to hope is through intentionally seeking out other positive and hopeful individuals and organizations, joining with them in positive actions, and, as we build our resources of hopefulness, lead others who may be feeling less hopeful. Hope is our path to positive change. Find your way there and help others get there as well." (JAM #1,395 Hope) JB

I am receiving a lot of feedback on email and through social media. I appreciate them all and encourage you to send me your comments today.
