Making It Count ...

Martin Luther King famously said "I have a dream"...

A timeless statement ... and probably one of the most famous.

He was speaking for all of us. I don't mean the subject of his particular dream, I mean that he voiced what I believe lies within each of us - the
"I have a dream" desire.

Dreams come in all shapes and sizes. We have them at varying ages and different stages in our life. Some can be achieved in a short period of time and some take a very long time to come to fruition (if ever). Reaching for them and achieving them can often be as simple as making a decision and taking that first step. For example, if your dream is to have your ideal job / career / business / partner, and you're in a job / career / relationship with something/someone who isn't, the practical choice is to change the situation i.e. end the current job / career / relationship. Procrastination, anxiety, fear, financial squeeze, lack of confidence are some of the things that can keep us from taking action.

Have faith, belief and courage ...

I don't know about you but I have lots of dreams - 'little goal' dreams and 'big whopper' dreams. It's what sustains, energises and drives me onward and upward. It's what makes me Full On !

For example, one of my 'little goal' dreams is to compete in a half ironman triathlon ... and then a full ironman triathlon. My big whopper dream is to be 'financially free' i.e. sufficiently financially secure to pursue a nomadic lifestyle traveling and exploring the world. Albeit I've experienced a lot of traveling so far it's kind of always been 'bit part'. I'd like it to be my 'main career' Full On at some point (I will of course be dabbling in 'work' whilst on my travels). There's just so much to see, to touch / feel, to taste, to hear, to adventure and to experience in this extraordinary world that it's difficult to do when you have 'making money' commitments and pressures to sustain oneself and others.

One thing's for sure. It's up to me to make these dreams come true. And I'm working on it ...

 * have a dream, or two or more?
 * work toward your dreams(s) daily?
 * want to share your dream(s) with other dreamers?

If so, come and get involved in Full On Living Blog and observe that there really is LIFE (and often a better one) once you’ve made that first step toward your dream. Sometimes just jotting it down and perhaps sharing it helps get the ball rolling.
