HOW MUCH OF YOUR DREAMS DID YOU ACHIEVE

  Are you living the life of your dreams?, Are you still struggling to achieve your dreams?, How much effort has been applied into achieving your childhood dreams? 
     
        Travelling back in space to our young age, those days when our parents were architects of our lives. We all had dreams, purpose and vision as kids. For instance, my teacher back then used to take a tour round the class asking each student what was his/her future aspiration. Every kid stood for him/herself by giving different answers: some wanted to be bankers, some pilots, some lawyers, every student had different visions about the future. With time, we all departed and got into high school.
         After our school life, the question was "how much of our dreams did we achieve?", some dropped out of school, some are struggling to achieve their dreams, some have been mislead into killing their dreams,some have accomplished their dream. Everyone parted ways with their story on how they failed or accomplished their childhood dreams. Those who accomplished their dreams fulfilled their purpose while the others failed because of these challenges:

-»They deviated away from their dream. Every human has a target(their goal), so they were preoccupied with the problems one must face to achieve his/her dream. For instance,you have a target of becoming a lawyer. The right way to achieve that target is to go to school. But when going to school, tuition fee applies, other requirements which they could not afford took they away from their dream. When we pill up our brains with different problems, it will basically start thinking on how to solve them, pushing us in different directions. Overcoming this challenge is very essential because when looking at all the problem one must face to achieve his/her dream, we can refer this as stage 1. When you are able to break through the basis, the sky is your starting point. Be focused on your dream and put aside every distraction.

-»The company you keep determines how they influence your life. There are two types of friends who would say you cannot make a difference in this world. Those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed. Friends either make you or mar you. They are your source of motivation towards achieving your dream. When you keep the wrong friends, you kill your future. Everybody has the right to make friends, you choose your friends yourself, but the most important aspect is to move with people who share the same goal as you. 

-» Mistakes and failure are part of success. When following your dream, failure is inevitable. Winners are not afraid of losing but losers are. Failure is part of the process of success, people who avoid failure, avoid success. If you do not fail, you cannot move forward. But the only important thing is not to key into your failure, let your failure inspire you. Take your failure and turn them into rallying cries.
       "IF YOU ASPIRE TO ACQUIRE THE DESIRE YOU ADMIRE, AND YOU FIRE AND IT BACKFIRES. DON'T RETIRE TO ASPIRE BUT REFIRE TO ACQUIRE, THE DESIRE YOU ADMIRE. 

A popular man RALPH WALDO EMERSON said "our greatest glory is not in never failing but in rising up everytime we fail". The only to achieve your drean is never to give up, there are bond to ups and down but hold tight and persevere, the future ahead is brighter.
     

   Personal advice:
       If you wanna follow your dreams, you have to say no to all alternatives.
