How to Define Your Dreams and Take the First Step

WE CREATE THE SKY WE WANT

We are willing to accept the statement “the sky is the limit” - yet how many of us take even the first step towards our own sky?

We can become trapped in our inner battle because one part of us is still fighting what we want to break free from, while another part is longing to run, leap and experience something different.

Perhaps you have heard the saying that life cannot be lived while constantly looking in the rear-view mirror.

But how do you stop looking back?

You start by knowing what you are walking towards.

Imagine setting out on a journey into completely unfamiliar territory with no guidance, no map and no idea where you are going. The uncertainty alone could create fear.

And yet, there is no existing map for your dream.

You are the creator of the map.

Your dreams are unique to you. Your vision of happiness, love, success, freedom and fulfilment will not necessarily look like anyone else's.

That means your first responsibility is to become clear about where your sky is.

What do you actually want?

Not what you were told you should want.

Not what feels safe.

Not what would make everyone else comfortable.

What do YOU want?

The past brought you experiences, lessons and opportunities for growth. You do not have to live there forever.

The future is waiting for you to take what you have learned and apply it differently.

And perhaps that is the most exciting part:

You get to decide what your future will be.

You get to create the map.

You get to choose the direction.

You get to decide how far you are willing to go.

And maybe your sky is much bigger than you ever allowed yourself to imagine.

Be clear on what you want.

Then take the first step towards it.

Master Your Beliefs.

Master your Future.
