Your dreams must grow with you.<\/p>\n
A friend wrote me after yesterday’s post and said it had never occurred to her that she needed to allow her dreams to grow along with her.<\/p>\n
Certainly there are fundamental structures in our lives that remain unchanged.\u00a0 And rightly so. Dreams?\u00a0 I do not believe they are among them.\u00a0 Decades bring physical change.\u00a0 Emotional maturity occurs.\u00a0 Technology advances.\u00a0 A dream seemingly unachievable thirty years ago can now be realized with nearly a few clicks of a mouse (read stories of revolutions fueled by twitter and facebook).<\/p>\n
I understand Whitney Houston is back in rehab.\u00a0 Again.\u00a0 Does that repetition seem familiar to you?\u00a0 Perhaps its not substance abuse that you struggle with but abuse of some other sort.\u00a0 Including self-abuse and practical unkindness toward your own soul.\u00a0 You say tomorrow will be different but you find yourself back in your own form of rehab – again.\u00a0 David Campbell observed, “Discipline is remembering what you want.”\u00a0 How can you know what you want if you are not connected to your dreams\/passions and most important things?\u00a0 Would that clarity help Whitney Houston?<\/p>\n
Here’s today’s headlines, YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHAT YOUR DREAMS ARE – BEFORE YOU CAN KNOW IF THEY ARE GROWING WITH YOU.<\/p>\n
I’m stunned by the number of “I don’t know” answers when I ask people to name the five most passionately important things in their life.\u00a0 If you don’t have clear and immediate answers to that question, let me ask you another question.\u00a0 How to you measure the Yes’s and the No’s in your life if you don’t know your key passions\/dreams\/important things?<\/p>\n
That’s question enough, isn’t it?\u00a0 If you have responses, comments or answers…please share.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
