Believing in your dream has nothing to do with chasing phantoms. Your dream is not YET reality – but it CAN be, and with commitment, it WILL be. Our dreams tend to elicit passionate devotion and commitment in our minds and hearts. For this reason, they tend to take over our lives. At the very least, they become the guiding goal of our actions. Although we choose the dreams we will pursue, at some profound and central level, our dreams are the aspirations of our souls. They are not like other ideas and other goals. They demand our passion and our commitment. When we believe in our dreams, they guide us like no other ideas. This is what enables us to achieve them.

A big dream takes you all the way to where you want to go. Sometimes we are afraid to dream BIG and to aspire to accomplish BIG results. And sometimes that fear causes us to settle for taking smaller steps toward smaller goals. This can be a good strategy if there is a clear and obvious next step from the first small goal to the next. Achieving small goals can move us gradually in the direction we want to go.

If you expect to pursue the dream that will guide the next phase of your life, you must take care of yourself. At Valentine’s Day, when you are thinking about the people you love and the people who love you, don’t forget to show yourself a little love. Loving yourself involves caring for your mind, your body and your soul. When your mind is working creatively and is fully engaged; when your body is properly nourished, rested and toned; when your soul is at peace – then you are ready to pursue your dream; then you are ready to give back; then you are ready to change the world, or some part of it.
