If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It

“Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.” ~ Harriet Tubman
 
In the business world, it is always first a dream, then preparation and action. That is when something worthwhile gets achieved. Every great achievement of man starts with a dream. What you do with the dream is what determines what the dream becomes. You may be a big dreamer OK but without acting on your dreams, they remain dreams in perpetuity. Great achievers not only dream, they are notorious for always acting positively on their dreams. The real reason they are the ones who get to achieve so much. They just don’t dream, they act. Acting promptly on your dreams is one great way to succeed in any venture.

Just take a look around you. These skyscrapers you see, the airplanes, the trains, coaches, cars and lorries you are seeing were at some point merely dreams people dreamed about. These people acted on their dreams and the great wonders of the world became realities. It is surprising true, that if you can dream it, you can do it. The will to get things done is what makes the difference. Even in your personal life, dreaming of academic achievements, professional achievements and even material possessions begins with a dream. Acting on your dreams leads to meaningful and tangible achievements.

The Value of Focus

“Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life – think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.” ~ Swami Vivekananda

Ideas rule the world. Yes indeed! Once you get a good idea about something you want to do, you can never make meaningful progress on that idea if you are unable to muster sufficient focus and attention on the idea. The more you focus on it, the better you can understand it. The more you think about it, the better you can make use of it. It is virtually impossible for any problem to completely defeat your thinking process if you are able to muster sufficient focus on the problem. That is reason why the sun’s rays only burns when brought to focus. Harnessing all resources at your disposal and directing them to solving one problem is a faster and better way to get that problem solved. That is the power of focus.

Let me strengthen this discourse further with these quotes from 3 world famous authors and writers:

“Most people have no idea of the giant capacity we can immediately command when we focus all of our resources on mastering a single area of our lives." - Anthony Robbins

"Nothing can add more power to your life than concentrating all your energies on a limited set of targets." - Nido Qubein

"What you choose to focus your mind on is critical because you will become what you think about most of the time." - Noel Peebles
