Making your dreams come true and living your desired and inspired life is an ongoing journey of discovery. And a process.
Don’t you sometimes wish you could just push a magic button and everything would be perfect – now?
But it really isn’t about achieving one goal or one moment that defines your happiness or your life. It is about the journey of discovery and the adventures and opportunities along the way.
I have spent a lot of time resisting the fears, risks and even some of the joy and excitement along the way. I have spent a lot of time getting in my own way.
Realizing that all the stages, including failing, trying again, re-evaluating, re-inventing and refining goals are part of the process of living my dreams allows me to see it differently.
Just like the creative process which has it’s moments of excitement and momentum along with lulls and incubation. It helps to know there are a myriad of stages and the feelings that go with it that allow you to continue to grow.
Your journey is usually a series of spirals and rarely ever a straight line.
Even though it might be frustrating – isn’t it comforting to know it’s not black and white? There isn’t a check point at the end of the line where someone stamps your Dream Card- granted or denied.
And if you are discovering and appreciating the journey along the path of your dreams, you’ll expect twists and turns along the way. You won’t give up so easily when you encounter them, and you may even come to regard them as opportunities to grow.
