The first thing you need to do is sit down and set your goals. Diana Scharf Hunt said \u201cGoals are dreams with deadlines.\u201d A lot of times, people are thrown off by the idea of taking the time to set their goals.<\/p>\n

Keeping one\u2019s self going is a difficult thing to do. There are a million distractions that occur every day and that can mean that we do not stay on track with what we should be doing. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Have you ever heard the expression, \u201cDo not count your chickens before they hatch?\u201d Maybe an older, wiser individual would tell you this to keep you from getting ahead of yourself. Like buying a new car before you actually got that new job. Well, when setting and obtaining your goals, you need to \u201cCount your chicken before they hatch\u201d in your mind. What I mean by this is you have to start seeing yourself completing or obtaining your goal. What you profess, you possess!<\/p>\n

\nWe Need Dreams<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dreams are important. Not the dreams you have when sleeping. I\u2019m talking about the dreams you have for your future \u2014 the dreams that keep you going \u2014 the dreams that make each day worth living.<\/p>\n

Dreams Aren\u2019t Enough <\/strong><\/p>\n

As important as dreams are, they arent enough. Why? Dreams don\u2019t take you where you want to go. A dream needs wings \u2014 to become a tangible vision \u2014 a passion that will take you where you REALLY want to be.<\/p>\n

Bethany Hamilton lives in Hawaii \u2014 her passion is surfing \u2014 her dream is to become a professional surfer. She spends every available minute in the water, even home-schooling so she can have more time to pursue her vision. At 8 years of age she entered her first major competition taking the division championships that year. Bethany\u2019s dream had become her passion \u2014 a tangible vision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
