Contest | " Our Dream💭"

I am delighted to have found pleasure in this topic after going through the contest alert for the week. I must say it was timely at a time when we all strive to meet the ends of our endeavors in our everyday activities. Dreams are like life guides that help us achieve destiny but funnily not all dreams come our way as we wish. However, this should not be a show-stopper for us. Let's get started with my submission.

Humans will always aspire to be great and advance our status at every point. This comes with a pre-planned effort that is conceived in the form of a Dream. It is that guide that helps humans articulate and aspire as they virtually design how they want their destiny to look. That is to say, we should dream in our life as it is part of our every day to day guide to help us measure success and failure points.

Having a dream is like a man who has budgeted how he wants to spend his money. It is like the fiscal budgeting system we practice in which a plan is rolled out, and monies are allotted to it for execution. In this scenario, not all budgeting plans gain full or successful execution in their life cycle. This is how the plan isn't cast in stone but a plan in motion and anticipation to achieve as expected.

Since we may not have full control of the execution parameters which are nature and sometimes man-made determinants, it is uncertain to say that we must achieve our dreams. We lose and gain some in line with our anticipation. However, as humans, we intend to achieve our dreams which are joy-gives to us.

Human wants and needs are insatiable, and so are our dreams. When we achieve one, it is normal that we aspire for something greater than what we just achieved. It is always a good thing that we achieve our dreams but unfortunately, it leaves us in the hands of more. Have we wondered why the politicians who already have money keep going the extra mile for more money? This is the same principle that works with the quest of achieving one and wanting another.

Our present situation easily becomes unsatisfactory once we achieve those dreams that brought us to that juncture and it is normal that we increase and aspire for more. No one one wants to be docile and all become outdated with the tides of events that come and go.

One thing that we must have in mind is that it is not everything that comes our way the way we want it. Some we are expected to win and the rest also lose. When we lose, it is usual to know how bad and unpleasant this would hit on us but it is important that we stay focused and encouraged as we restrategize. Quitting in this case can never be an option and being depressed is a no-no for anyone who is positively minded.

We are encouraged to replan and find better ways of achieving those dreams if our former approach does not work out for us. Vices like depression and quitting would only make us worse off and hence we are left to be positive, focused, and determined with our plans.

Working right is one way and smart way to achieve our dreams. Since there is a dream, it is important to know those strategies that are in line with achieving those dreams. We can not have a dream of buying a car in 2024 and all we do is de-savings. Spending recklessly from our incomes which are ordinarily expected to be kept aside for this purpose. What about having a dream to achieve a post-study in Europe and there are no plans to acquire a passport or visa for such? We have to work right and in the direction of our dreams.

Make room for unforeseen circumstances that may tend to discourage us on our way to success or our dreams. We have to be intentional about glitches and make provision for them otherwise, they are show stoppers that discourage us and set in de[session if not managed well. Therefore, we have also have in mind that we can always fall but it is best that we rise without staying behind.

Thank you, friends.
