This post is made in response to Steemit In Nigeria (SIN2) objectives to help communities attend the conference in Abuja which has been slated to hold between 30th October to 4th November, 2018.
Therefore, all Steem Dollars generated would be used to make SIN2 conference a success.
Humans are a bundle of dreams, hopes and aspirations. It is these dreams, hopes and aspirations that keep us going whether in good times or bad. We wake up every morning ready to face the day. However, it's the level of hope we have that decides how much energy we're going to give into that day.
Dreams Are Mental Images Of The Future
There are diverse dreams just as there are no same fingerprints. I'm not thinking about the images we see when we close our eyes and our minds roam the dream world; although that might apply too. I'm talking about our aspirations, the kind of person we want to become, the kind of relationships we want to build, the kind of life we want to leave.
"These three things: Person, Relationship, Lifestyle are often in every dreams.
Sometimes they appear all together, sometimes it's just one or two of them. Regardless of how many are present, our dreams ultimately expresses a mental image of what sometime we want in future."
When you wake up and look into the mirror, what do you see? At that moment, you have a choice. You can choose to see the exact representation of who you at that time; or you could choose to focus on the person you could become in the nearest future. Whether you choose to stay in the present or reach out for the future, it all depends on you.
Start Living Those Dreams
How many dreams have you had since you were born?
One, two, three? The number doesn't matter. All that matters is that you pick one that matters to you and begin to live it.
Get Up
You're done sitting in the corner telling yourself that your dreams are bigger than you. I know you're broke but money isn't everything. I know you failed but you have to channel that anger and frustration as fuel.
You don't dream? It's because you don't allow yourself to. It's time to get up. There's a lot more you can become. There's so much to life than you're experiencing.
Look Up
When you begin a journey, you keep your gaze fixed on your destination. If you keep looking behind, you'll never have the time to make your way ahead. If you look around you, you might keep seeing your limitations and other people who are struggling but are yet to reach the goal. If you look within yourself, you might keep seeing your inability and fear.
So the goal is to look up, to look above, to look at your goal. That way, all you see is your dream coming to pass. When you're surrounded by your limitations, you can find strength from focusing on your dream.
Never Walk Alone
Life was meant to be shared. That's why humans are social creatures. Even nerds and geeks have friends. To make your dreams come true, you need to surround yourself with like-minded people. These people will hold your hand, cheer you up when you're down and support you all the way up when the road gets rough or when the dream gets tough.
What are you waiting for? Your dreams await you. Get up now!
