It's no longer "Dream big or go home", It's now: "Dream big & get results" Here's how I turned my dreams into results, & a better more self-directed life:
When I was younger, I dreamt of not working in the traditional sense and I dreamt of me making millions of dollars, owning cool cars and a big mansion - taking a different route than most people.
Now, I’ve been persistent in my dreams but they have changed along the way: & if it weren’t for me actually pursuing my dreams I wouldn’t have been able to achieve tangible results in line with them. This is the modern dreamer path coming around
I wouldn’t be working for myself right now, and probably wouldn’t have set college in my rear view after 2.5 years of it (I almost conformed against my dreams here) Truthfully I probably would have been working a job I didn’t enjoy & was the opposite of my dream when I was a kid
I no longer want the Lamborghini or a mansion, I’ve actually turned into someone who’d prefer to live below their means so I can enjoy my time a lot more without worrying about how ill purchase that new shiny thing.
In chasing my dreams I’ve discovered what I need & want more of and that has boiled down to having time to do what I love, with people I love, and work on things that fuel my soul.
Now I may not have millions of dollars currently, but I’ve done quite well, and I think the 10-year-old version of me would agree. The reason this type of dreaming big and getting results is possible is mainly because of the ways dreams have changed in the age of the internet
Someone may dream big for 1 million subscribers or to be a YouTuber as their means of making an income to live off of, but even if they fall short, if they are dreaming big that’s the only way they will hold results.
I dreamt so big aiming for the moon (Lamborghinis, mansion, etc) but ended up falling short & in love with the stars (Found my ideal path, what I value most, & have achieved results in line with said values, and new dreams)
By dreaming about What I wanted out of life I was able to get results inline with my answers,& then adjust course to my newfound ideal path Ask yourself this question too, follow your answers, get results, adjust course (if needed) & you wont have to "go home" on your big dreams
