A Step, Just a Step

Some of the most cheesiest, famous, cliches are just true. The problem with them, is that they are what they are, words. Simply words, that lack context or meaning unless said greatly. Like how a normal person can say something, and then Morgan Freeman can say it. However, despite them being cliché, they can be true, and one of those cliches, would be that the thousand step journey begins with one step.

Most people have dreams, but the difference between those that have dreams and those that achieve their dreams is: One has dreams, and the other makes those dreams tangible.

If you have a dream, but don’t work on that dream, it makes it just a pie in the sky.

Given enough time and trying, a dream will always come true. Anything, given enough time, despite the odds will always come true.

Too often, when people want to do something, they stop short when they look at themselves or the amount in their wallet, and just mumble,”That’s life.” But the truth is far from that, reality is bent by the wills of men and women who choose another reality.

For instance, let’s say you wanted to climb mount Everest. Not only is mountain climbing expensive with all the gear, it is also very physically challenging. Most people would say, “It’s too expensive and that’s life, if only I was rich.”

However, in reality, even if they had the money and said the same thing, it would be the same. Mount Everest is not just about money, it’s also about training your body and doing the research. It’s not really that someone couldn’t do it, money or no money, it’s really just because they never even tried.

Most goals or dreams that never come true, is simply because the right technique was not applied. However, most of the time it’s really because people don’t even try. If people choose to fail before they even try, of course that dream is impossible. Too often people put dreams on the back burner or they just give up when looking at the task. The truth about dreams is that they are possible if some effort is made. Even things that are possible require effort, dreams are no different.

So if you have a dream and it seems impossible, don’t look at the impossible, do the possible. Because once that is done, you are one step closer, making that dream more tangible then ever.
