Careers, great enterprises, massive fortunes, relationships, children, health, personal development, they all don't happen by chances. They do not become a reality by falling down the sky or by rising out of the depth of some abyss.
Anything that is successful, or leads towards success, originates from an idea, a dream, this notion of the seed that germinates in the heart and mind of a human being. A person without a dream - no matter how small - cannot reap a harvest of gratifying success, which means to say that: your success begins with a dream.
Do you have a dream in life?
What is your dream in life right now?
When we were children, we all imagined what we would like to be when we grew up: astronaut, scientist, actress, doctor, teacher, and etc..
During the course of our childhood, full of play, and our adolescence, full of dreams, we envisaged lots of different roles, and any glamourous position, job or achievement seemed possible and real in our imagination.
But we are grew older we began to lower our sights. Teachers, parents, other adults, maybe friends, advised us negatively to be realistic instead of rightly encouraging us to go for our dreams. The worse of all is that we chose to listen to them as the act of respect or obedience and that really limit our possibilities of our dreams. Sadly, it places a lot of frustration in our later lives, thinking back in disappointment and regrets.
The vast fertile fields which lay before us began to shrink down before our eyes, until our vision of future success was reduced to nothing bigger than a pot of flowers. Suddenly most of the world seems inaccessible in our minds.
But the essential point to recognise is of course that the unlimited potential of childhood and the tight constraints of adult life, both originate mainly from our imagination.
If you believe you can, no doubt you can.
If you believe you can't, you probably can't.
You need to have faith in your dreams for them to come true. Take Maria Duval's words for it. In fact, all great successful men will agree this point wholeheartedly. Just do it and the rewards may be fantastic.
