What do you do when you see something that you would really really like. For me it may be an amazing sports car, or a huge boat. As it goes past you will engage in one of two responses. You will either DROOL in ENVY – or you will DREAM in EXPECTATION.
Drooling in envy simply says that the owner of your desired object is luckier than you and so you envy their achievements or acquisitions.
However the other person who sees an amazing object or achievement – allows it to inspire them to dream bigger in the expectation that one day they too will achieve or attain the same levels of blessing and favour.
DONT be a person that envies everyone else in life. Drooling over another man’s things will never help bring them to pass.
However dreaming of ways to achieve similar ends and learning from those who have achieved will start the journey toward greater things.
Nobody ever achieved great things by enviously drooling over another mans achievements.
Every time I see an amazing motor car or bike or boat or whatever, I take a few minutes to dream of the day when I also may be able to enjoy such blessings.
This always leads to greater purpose and planning and a new sense of enthusiasm that I will be able to keep pressing forward to greater things.
Stop drooling over everyone else’s success and start dreaming of your own.
Then start planning the step by step journey that will one day get you there.
No short cuts. No excuses. No escape routes. No second options. Not having a bit of everything.
Just plain old focus, sacrifice and hard work – to press on toward the dreams you have hidden inside you.
