These are just a few examples of great people. There are numerous super achievers in this world who seemingly never had a chance, but still made it.
They have one thing in common – They are Dreamers.
All great things in the world start with a dream. The size of your success will depend on the size of your dream.
Dream is nothing but an idea conceived in your mind that you get passionate about. Dream is something that makes you feel that “Yes! This is the purpose of my life.”
Dream gives you the courage, to overcome obstacles. It makes you achieve the impossible. Dream sets you apart from rest of the people. It is your dream that can make you great.
There are no great people, Only great Dreams.
There are two kinds of people in this world……
One who have there own dreams
Other, who follow other people’s dream.
Which one is You?
It is the human being who has been gifted with the power to dream. We all have that power. As children we have vivid imagination and fantasies. We do not know what is possible and what is not. We just imagine.
But as we grow old, we face the harsh realities of life. We come to know about the limitations of our circumstances. We start knowing why something is impossible. And what is the first thing we do? We bury our dreams.
But the people who make it are the one who refuse to give up their dreams. They understand that their dream is the gift of God, and they cherish it. They are not ignorant of their circumstances but they believe in that if the Dreams are big enough, facts don’t count.
Fuelled with the power of dream, they take risks, face challenges, and rise above their circumstances. They achieve.
You can do it too.
Just get a dream.
