Dreams don’t only occur when we sleep.

We can also dream with eyes wide open, okay maybe glazed over with a silly goofy smile plastered on.

I am learning to deliberately sit back and stretch my mind the way that I would stretch my muscles and even though this might sound juvenile, it surprises me sometimes, how far I can stretch them.

It tells me that if my mind can conceive it, then I can find ways to accomplish it by giving it my best shot.

We tend to use all the self limiting excuses under the Sun as a limitation to arriving at our desired goals.

Maybe, it’s time we tried to dump the excuses and start dreaming as well as whittling away at it.

Good luck.

  3. Drop the excuses! As a self-declared master of excuses, I can find hundreds of reasons to not do something (kids, work, etc.)! Trying to move past that now. Thanks for these words of encouragement ☺

  4. “Maybe, it’s time we tried to dump the excuses and start dreaming as well as whittling away at it.” This is my anthem right now. I am living this line everyday to the best of my ability. no more wasting time.

  5. Very motivational, Jackie. Love the phrase “stretch your mind” and you never know what you’ll find. Very true about deliberate re-learning. I’m still taking daily baby steps in that area. 🙂
