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 belief is not merely an idea the mind possesses; it is an idea that possesses the mind.”
– Robert Bolton
