Believe In Your Dreams by Ed Hirsch
Can you be trusted to complete what you say you will do? In other words, be
your word?
Have you ever made a promise and delivered on it ... or did you put it off
and not have closure?
One of Benjamin Franklin's 13 Governing Values was *Resolution* ... simply
*Resolve to perform what you ought; perform without fail what you resolve.*
So that means make a decision and stick to it until it is accomplished.
One of the most important things for you to focus on is your faith ... Faith
in what? ... God, your dreams coming true, the healing for your health, your
relationships, money matters, etc.
*NOW faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not
seen.* --Hebrews 11:1
Allow your faith to have an impact on ALL whom you come in contact with. It
reflects in the way you live your life, how you spend your time and how much you
give of yourself.
We all get frustrated when things don't go exactly as planned. Frustration
isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's a reminder that there's a goal you're
reaching or a desire
that can't be immediately satisfied--and that's good.
Without the essential tension of frustration we'd have little motivation to
pursue our goals and desires. *A man's reach should exceed his grasp, or what's
a heaven for?* It was frustration that led you to seek change in your life. It
was frustration that led you to read this article because maybe you lost your
focus of Believing in your dreams.
Two Corrective Actions which may help you:
1. Recognize that there are few things in life that you *have* to do. There
are many things that you may *choose* to do. Use your daily and weekly to-do
lists to prove to yourself that you almost always have a
choice and that you are indeed prioritizing and making choices.
2. Remember that you're just one person. If any course will result in
frustration, remind yourself that you're pursuing the best course possible *at
this time.* Avoid berating yourself for a decision that
turned out less than perfectly. Acknowledge that if you had chosen the other way
you'd be berating yourself for a different reason. A good motto to remember is,
*I did the best I could with what I had at the time.*
I came to the conclusion that we fail our way to success.
*I am not judged by the number of times I fail but by the number of times I
succeed, and the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion to the number
of times I can fail and keep on trying.* --Tom Hopkins
Make your dreams come true by changing Uncertainty into Action.
Don't be afraid to make mistakes.
Challenge procrastination with decisive action. Remember that it's not
necessary to have all the evidence before you commit yourself. Sometimes it
takes a leap of faith.
Reassure yourself that you're willing to live with the results--good, bad or
indifferent. Then jump in. Remember that *tomorrow is another day* doesn't cut
it in today's world. If you don't take action, someone
else will.
Pay attention to feedback. Self-feedback is often the most effective
feedback. Make a note each time you find yourself rationalizing failure by
determining it's someone else's fault. Acknowledge your own mistakes and put
yourself back on course by focusing on decisions you've made that *have*
produced successful results.
Take some *downtime* to reflect on your goals, dreams and life aspirations.
With a rested and relaxed mind, rise back up to the Faith which will inevitably
help carry you through and effects everything else you do.
Have An Impact! Make your life count for something.
