16 Reasons Why It's So Important To Follow Your Dreams


The 16 Reasons Why It It's So Important To Follow Your Dreams


1. The secret of living is giving, if you follow your dreams then you will have something worth sharing with others, hope, inspiration and a meaning to live, and that to me, is a great contribution.
2. Chasing your dreams will develop your courage. Courage is your fuel to achieve amazing success in life, follow your dreams and exercise courage. In sure enough time you will be unstoppable.
3. There is a reason why as kids we loved magic and dreams. Stop chasing your dreams and you will forget how it feels to live hopeful and young.
4. Great dreamers grow to be independent, learning that they can make a difference all by themselves.
5. Dreams can distract you from the negative events in life. You will weigh up what is more important, your dreams or the drama. Drama seems obsolete when you are passionate about following your dreams.
6. It gives you something to share and inspire your kids with, you have led by example that anything is possible when you put your mind to it.
7. Through accomplishing your dreams you will come to appreciate the experience of failure and know that failure is just part of success and that it wasn’t really all that bad as it was all worth it in the end.
8. Regret is a terrible thing, and a dream is powerful enough to bring you regret if you don’t take the chance to at least follow it.
9. Because you are never too old to dream. Age means nothing when we know what we want.
10. You become an interesting person, you show others you have meaning, direction and purpose.
11. The unknown of following your dreams may spark a little fear, this is okay though because a little fear is known to make you feel more alive.
12. It is fun proving the world wrong, so why would you follow the status quo?
13. The more you chase and accomplish your dreams the more the lines of the boundaries that the world puts in front of us fade, as we learn that any and everything is possible.
14. When you accomplish your dream, you are the first to see it happen. You can share your accomplishments with the rest of the world but you where there in the front row on a single chair to experience the magic that unfolded.
15. Your dreams have no limits, you are the creator of your dreams, big or small. When this is understood, you are able to design a way to favour you plan and accomplish your end goal.
16. A dream is strong enough to define you, once accomplished you prove to others they have no say in who you can and can’t be.

Cheers!

How i got my business mentor


When i started in this new path or career it was clear to me that i needed a mentor or point of reference towards success. Yes, i did buy some books and as much as i enjoyed and enlightening they are, nothing beats an actual successful person sharing his ideas and experiences.   I read this article before and i did here the same ideas from different people.

"While some entrepreneurs have had the privilege of earning a business degree in college, or even an MBA, more people have gone through the business course of life and learned the entrepreneurial ropes the hard way: with bad decisions and expensive consequences. "

That being said, i learned early on that even some business man didn't really have that "privilege", Yes it is a plus factor if you have that but from what i read and successful people i interacted with some learn the ropes  with experience. Most say it boils down to your attitude (I'll expand on that next time)

This is what i learned, if your going to get a mentor, work with yourself first. What do i mean? Set yourself first to be in the zone of learning, know who you are, what you want, your goals & targets then most importantly your attitude (strength and  weaknesses). You cant afford to do a "shot gun approach" and waste time nor equally wasteful is learn later on that " i think im working with the wrong person, his ideas and ethics is different from mine"

"The teacher appears when the student is ready" When you know what you want and what you need it simplifies your list of who you want to approach since you know what you want and who can possibly feel it in & that somebody worth 
emulating.

Dont fret as well to ask help or get mentor ship from different people of success, as long as their ideas and concept are similar then the outcome is the same.  Sometimes its the approach that is different, some ideology but different approach like that of the "Coach A & Coach B"

People get confuse easily if not the hardest challenge people face is to "ask for help". Its a golden rule to have a business mentor when you want to be successful.
