YOUR DREAM IS UP TO YOU
News flash! Your dream is up to you! You can’t expect someone else to fulfill it for you. As Jim Rohn said, “You cannot hire someone else to do your push-ups for you.”
Similarly, you can’t hire someone to realize your dream. It’s up to you, so let’s discuss ways you can take responsibility for achieving it.
Waiting for Someone Else to Live Your Dream
Unfortunately, many of us sit back, waiting for our dreams to fall from the sky. We allow laziness, procrastination, and even self-doubt to convince us that if we just wait, our dreams will somehow come true, or that someone else will achieve them for us.
In fact, you can wait until you’re blue in the face, and that dream will never happen until you take responsibility for achieving it.
Your dream is up to you, so abandon this entitlement thinking that someone else will make it happen, because that’s never going to happen.
Realizing You Hold the Power
When I turned 16, I had a dream of owning my first car, and I wondered how I would get it. Instead of getting a job and saving money for a car, I developed an entitlement mentality and believed it was my daddy’s responsibility to get me a car.
I remember asking him if he would help me get one at 16, and he never answered me. So, at 16, I didn’t get a car, nor did I get one at the age of 17, 18, or 19, and it wasn’t until I turned 25 that I had an epiphany.
You see, I realized I was waiting for my daddy to do my push-ups for me. I was hoping he would realize my dream of getting my first car.
But after 9 years of having the same dream and not a step closer to making it happen, I realized my dream was up to me and I held the power to make it happen.
Finally, I got a job, saved my money, and bought that car at the age of 25 because I took responsibility for my dream.
Just as I had to take responsibility for my car, you too will have to take responsibility for your dream.
Stop waiting for someone else to realize your dream for you. To help you do so, here are three things you can do to take responsibility for it:
Steps to Make Your Dream a Reality
1) Believe in Yourself: The first step is self-belief. You need to know deep down that you can do this. The best way to develop a belief in yourself is to train your mind through positive affirmations. For example, my affirmation for getting my first car was, “I’m a hard worker, responsible, and I will buy my first car.” So, create your own self-belief affirmation and repeat it to yourself daily.
2) Take Action Daily: Dreams require action, so determine the steps you need to take to realize your dream. Commit to taking these actions every day to move closer to your dream.
3) Stay Committed: Without commitment, there is no dream fulfillment. There will be days when you will want to give up on your dream. But push through those days and remember that commitment is the key to your dream’s fulfillment.
IT’S UP TO YOU!
Don’t waste another day waiting for someone else to make your dream happen in your life!
Your dream is up to you, and you have everything inside of you to bring it into your reality. So, believe in yourself and take action towards your dream because You Are WORTHY TO BE GREAT!
