Dream Big Kid

but not too big…

“Go ahead, if you want to be disappointed” I can't tell you the number of times someone said this to me regarding my dreams. People say this the most about my goal to be a Real Estate Agent. My thought is “you must not know ME.” Who’s with me!? What those saying that don’t understand is if I feel like I can do something 9/10 I can.

Values

• Make sure your dreams support your values.

I’ve spent a lot of time figuring out my values. My dreams all lead to my values. My dreams are big. But they’re within reason. For instance, My own family(kids in the future), To be a Real Estate Agent, YouTube for fun, and writing for the love of writing. Those are my Dreams. All of my dreams align with my core values of Helping others(find homes), Family, and Self-care. YouTube and Writing fall into self-care. If I begin YouTube just like writing it will be a hobby. Meaning I don’t want to let it stress me out it’s supposed to be my piece. Because I’m sure my job and future family will. I mean heck even my siblings stress me HAHA!

Every single thing on that list brings me so much joy just thinking about it. Most of these things I’ve dreamed of since I was a child. I was as surprised as anyone else when I grew up and still had the same dreams. This made me feel I need to make these dreams a reality. Ambition takes over my body and sends me into productivity mode.

Steps to Achieve

• Make an outline of the big steps you need to take.

The steps to achieve said goals are an entirely different story. I don’t expect any of this to just happen. That brings me to my entire point of writing this article. Again, I don’t expect any of this to just happen magically. I know it’s gonna take some seriously hard work. I like the expression of blood, sweat, and tears. Minus the blood though, IDK it weirds me out. However sweat and tears? Oh yeah, I’m sure there will be a lot of that.

Is it okay to dream big?

Dreaming big is fine! As long as you’ve thought about what it takes to achieve that dream. Don’t expect any of these things to happen. But if your anything like me you’ll work like your future depends on it. Because it does. Every day is a chance to create a better tomorrow. This is something I’ve mastered.

I have not mastered being “present” or in the moment so if any fellow writers have tips on that please reply below! Thank you for reading!
