What do you dream of?

Dreams are the foundation of everything we do. They are necessary to propel us forward and keep us moving towards the best version of ourselves. Goals are what allows us to achieve in life, and we simply can't have goals if we don't dream.

Dreams are courageous. In time, as you follow your dreams, you will develop your courage. This is because great dreamers are independent, and they know that they can make an impact all by themselves. Dreams are inspired. They are something to be shared, so that you can lead by example that anything is possible when you put your mind to it.

A dream can define you, and you can prove against naysayers or people who try to put you in a box of who and what you can and can't be. In this way, your dreams are limitless. You are the sole designer of your dreams, no matter how big or how small. You are also the designer of how these dreams get fulfilled.

The possibility of dreaming big, and working hard to achieve that dream is an important part of the growth mindset at The Like Minded Collective. We have seen time and time again individuals who want huge success, but are not quite ready to conquer all of life’s hurdles. More often than not, this is because their attitude is not aligned with that needed for turning dreams into a reality.

This is why it is so important to dream big, but to do so with the right attitude and actions in place. Actions will help fight against the mental blockades of a fear of failure, fear of rejection, procrastination, people’s opinions, and more.

We encourage you to clearly define your dreams, and realise why it is that they are so important to you. Then, write them down! You can split your dreams up into different aspects of your life - for example, business goals, family goals, health goals , or in terms of long-term and short-term goals.

However, you set out your goals, the most important thing is to clearly define them. It is the best thing to dream big, but only when you have the right mindset in place. Visualise yourself reaching your dreams, and then plan out the steps you need to take to get there. If you get stuck, we love this quote: “visualise your highest self, and then start showing up as her”.
