The human race has this amazing capacity of planning ahead their lives. We can envision something like it’s real, way before we even start to take actions into making it happen. And this vision that we have, it will serve us as a blueprint for making it real.
Believe in your dreams
If you think you can’t do it, that’s going to be your reality. If you think you can do it, that’s going to be your reality. Whatever decision you make related to your capacities, it will transcend in reality. In fact, is known that we are the only ones that set our own limits. Limits learned in society, learned from others or based on fears. Self-limiting is the roadblock in our own way to fulfillment. Think about it, if like 10 years ago, somebody will tell you that with a small phone you can make photos, videos, track your location, play games and navigate the internet like on a PC, you won’t believe it, right? Look around you now.
The only limits we have are the ones we think we have. That’s why is so crucial to believe in our dreams. Some people have wishes, like “I should lose some kilograms; I should make more money; I should have a loving relationship”. You see this “should ” that is present in the wishes? This means basically: “Well, that would be nice to happen but I don’t think so.” With this kind of mentality, you shoot yourself in the foot.
Instead of this, turn your “should” into “must”. “I must lose some kilograms; I must make more money; I must have a loving relationship.” These are dreams, powerful visions. They basically say: I know what I want and I’m going to get it now.
A dream has to be big enough to excite you
All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
Walt Disney
Dream big or go home. Small dreams have no impact whatsoever on your heart. Because our DNA is made of greatness. And greatness doesn’t dream small. Of course, everybody has a different perception of what is big and what is small dreaming, but what is big for your is the way to go.
A big dream is a powerful dream. It excites you, gives you joy, makes you happy and fulfilled. A big dream makes you feel alive.
So why limiting yourself to something you don’t really want? Because you think that what you truly want can’t be achieved? Have no limits, have no wishing boundaries, dream big and make it happen.

You need something to pull you towards it, not something to push yourself into doing it
Here’s another reason for dreaming big. A small dream is not exciting enough to give you the energy to act on it. So you need to constantly push yourself towards it. And it’s exhausting! It’s stressful, is burning you down. Is what I call zombie living. Because you don’t really feel alive and you are not dead. It’s not a good way to live, I’ve been there and I know how hard is to constantly try to give yourself reasons for even getting up in the morning. It’s not a very exciting life.
But a big dream is powerful and exciting. It makes you jump right out of bed 5 minutes before that alarm clock even starts to ring. It makes your soul burn with excitement, joy, fulfillment, aliveness, happiness and motivation. It will make go through unbearable obstacles with unreasonable ambition. You need to follow your passion because no rational man will go through hard times like that. We all are intelligent people, but we are driven by emotions. And the big dreams are our volcano of emotions. What we truly want, what our heart urges to have, that’s all the reason in the world we need to get it.
Pursuing your dreams that you desire is one of the most motivating things in the world
It’s so powerful that is the reason behind any great invention, any great achievement. Dreaming big is the reason behind our evolution as a race. It pulls us towards it like gravity.
I am so amazed by how the way mind works, how the brain has this amazing power of making a plan and then make it happen. We all have this power even if we know it or not. Believe in your most wanted dreams, see them as they are already a reality, envision them and go making it happen. Most of the times, we don’t even know how we will do it and we don’t have to know, we just have to believe that we will make it happen and our mind will find a solution. We will see how, like small steps revealing while you make them. Like pieces of a puzzle that fall into place at the right time.
Dream big, live big!
