Dreams and Goals

Being that it's my birthday today, I started to think about dreams and goals as I typically do every year at my birthday. To me, when I view life through a telescope, the purpose, reason etc, it all boils down to dreams and goals. Think about it for a second. What are we doing here on earth. What's the purpose? I don't mean to get mystical here but it's interesting to put it all in perspective once in a while.

Life is simple. You make dreams and set goals to attain those dreams and then execute to make it all happen. When you attain goals and therefore dreams, you make new dreams and set goals to attain. Your dreams and goals can be to have a family that you take care of and grow together or to learn to scuba dive and then go to the Cayman Islands to do so. It doesn't matter what they are, it only matters that you have them. People get lost from time to time or seem directionless and make life too complex in the process.

Life is about your dreams and goals and the pursuit of making them realities. Make a point to dream dreams, set goals and go after them daily, weekly, monthly and yearly and then follow up on your dreams and goals to check your progress. Never stop creating dreams and goals to attain, it's the very essence of life itself.

Dream your dreams, define them and set goals which you must then work to pull off. When you attain goals, set new ones.

I heard a saying one time that went like this, "there are only two tragedies in life, someone who has nothing and someone who has everything", this to me, relates to someone who has no dreams and no goals and someone who has attained their dreams and goals and neglected to make new ones. Life is about living and you do that through dreaming dreams, making goals and going after them.
