Did you think it involved just that, dreaming, like seeing yourself on the cover of your favorite magazine, receiving the keys to a car or a house, visualizing yourself accepting the cheers of your adoring fans?
Well i suppose some dreams are like that-the ones that you don't really expect to come true.
Those nice, airy-fairy dreams of winning Wimbledon when you've never played tennis in your life or meeting Denzel Washington by chance and knocking his feet from under him with your charm and beauty (never mind that you are happily married, because in dreams like these practicalities don't count).
There is nothing wrong with dreaming, even the impractical fantasies you know will never come true.
Imagination is a powerful tool in problem solving, in testing different scenarios before you commit yourself to a plan of action.Imagination is a creative power, playing an important role in designing a dress, deciding the colour of your new house, or planning the menu for a party.And I believe that imagining the success at the end of a quest plays an important role in motivating you to actually do something to make that fantasy scene reality.
And this is where you need to be careful.The familiar saying, be careful what you wish for, lest it comes true, applies to all of us at some stage of our lives.What happens when a dream comes true?
There you were, innocently dreaming of becoming famous and, the next thing you know, your picture is in the tabloids and you,re having to answer awkward questions. You thought you really wanted to enroll for a higher degree, and now that you have realized you don't have time to do your course justice, and your heading for and embarrassment.
In spite of all these little surprises, we need those dreams.So when the demands of life are just a little too realistic, spend some time day dreaming, before you go on to face the next challenge.
