The time has come where most people have given up on following their dreams. There are reasons and for most people they have no time to reach those dreams. They have a career, a family to support and many other factors that have come up into their lives. It is something that holds us back from reaching out dreams.


One of the biggest things about reaching our dreams is to decide what our dream is and how we can make it happen. Most people give up because the work that goes into achieving the dream is more than they are willing to put into it. For most people the dreams that they have all happened when they were young and in school. If the dream is not what everyone else thinks is good for you, you are told to stop dreaming and to come back to the real world.


This is one of the biggest problems with people who are not happy with their life’s goals and dreams. They for to long have been pushed to not dream or set goals because they were told that their dreams were wrong. It is something that holds people back from reaching those dreams that they have because of the negative environment that they are in. Another one is they fear what others will think if they do something for themselves.


There is so much pressure on people because they are trying to please everyone instead of achieving what they want. These broken dreams go to the side of their life and are never looked at again.


However, there is help and it comes from taking control of your life and realizing that some people are not going to like the new you. In taking control of your life, you can start your new life from where you are sitting right now. As the dreams have never left but have changed as you have grown. The day will be seen and now there is your dreams to follow. It does not matter when the pursuit of your old dreams starts.


Today you maybe forty and changing to follow the job of your dreams. You are never too old to start school again or if you are wanting to write a book or to backpack through the nation’s parks in the country you live in. With what makes you happy is the most important thing in the long run.


Today you woke up, you have a full day to live your life and in working to what makes you happy. The one thing is that to reach a big goal or dream is to take that first step. In the long run it is you that has to be happy with your life and to stay true to yourself.


Stay safe.
