There are a few reasons why many people dont see their dreams manifest. Here's the most common reasons:
1. People believe that success only happens to other people, not them.
2. People believe others who tell them their dream is not possible.
3. People are afraid of either success or failure, or both.
4. The dream is someone else's dream for her or him, not her or hs dreams.
5. People think they are too young or old to activate their dreams.
6. People do not know how to get started.
7. People are comfortably unhappy, and afraid or unwilling to let go.
In order to activate your dreams you must be ready to aggressively take action. Remember this is your dream not what someone else wants for you. So let's talk about how to determine that your dream is really what you want. In my next blog we will talk about how to take actions to make it happen.
You should always do a Vision Check... A vision check is simply check what you are seeing against what you are feeling.
Journal these six statements:
No one else is putting pressure on you to achieve your dream.
You are willing to figure out how to achieve it, even if you do know where to start.
You wake up and go to sleep eited about what the new day will offer.
Your passion frequently overswhelms you, and you find yourself unable to stop thinking or talking about your dream, even if others roll their eyes and seem uninterested.
Your spare time is occupied with working toward yuor dream
Your dream is not a burden to you. You dont have it make it workhowever, you want it to work.
If all statements are true then your dream is your dream. If you answered false to any of the above statements, you may want to rediscover your dream.
More to come....

Get Your Head Into the Move
Have you ever moved? I mean moved from one location to another. You like moving from your apartment to a new one or from one house to another. Moving can be stressful but more than that it can cause you to think about your life.
Recently I moved and in the move I decided to de-clutter my life. That meant getting rid of somethings that I was emotional, mentally and spiritually tied to. I needed to make space for the new. Sometimes in our lives we want to move to the next level or a better space but we are too tied to the things that are in our lives currently. We have what I like to call "stinky thinking" or bad habits that tend to stand in our way of moving forward.
So as I started packing up my home, I decided that I would get rid of things that were no longer serving their purpose. I would get rid of things that were no longer aligned with where I am going. I had to think with my head and not my heart. I had to make decisions about old letters I kept neatly in a box, photos and other things that were reminders of a more indecisive me. I had to get rid of old products from past failed businesses that I no longer have the energy or drive to pursue. Papers and more papers were thrown out. Old shoes, clothes and what not knots were given away, some just threw them out. Old furniture, in good shape but does not serve a purpose now.
I went from top to bottom. Many times I had to stop and cry, I had so many memories, good and bad. De-cluttering my life is a must for my new level. My move was not just a physical one, it was a mental, emotional, spiritual and financial one. every area of my life would be affected by this move. No matter how attached I was to the stuff I got rid of, I knew that it was opening my life to the new and unknown. A welcomed change for this lady. Some of the things I got rid of were comfortable to me. They had proven their worth in times past. However, my life is now outgoing that comfortable space.
As you move forward in your life. Learn to get your head in the move. Know the reason why a move is necessary and what can and cannot go along with you. this includes people. the connections we make in life serve purposes and we must know when their purposes have been served. Some will be connections for a life time others will be seasonal connection. Know the difference. Keep your life De-cluttered. Everything should have a place and a purpose in your life.
I understand that many times it is more easier said than done. but you must do it. after getting rid of the clutter in my life, I am moire freer to make the necessary decisions that I need to make moving forward. Not only is my physical space neater, my spiritual, mental and emotional space is neater. I can think clearer and my creativity is at it's peak.
Make up your mind to today to get your head into your move, decide to clear your space and make room for the new. With each new level comes new ideas, new responsibilities and new wins. Just like a physical new space requires you to decorate it to make it your own you must be willing to make changes in every area of your life to get you where you are going. It's your choice.

See the Invisible! Achieve the Impossible! Dare 2 B U Now!
Now a days many are talking about vision, dreams, wealth, prosperity, riches, destiny and the list goes on and on. However, with all the ways you can achieve the list of desired things we want in life, we must remember one thing. In order to be a person full of passion, to live your destiny and live wealthy, you must be true to who you are.
Heard that before? Okay well hear it again.
In order to achieve the impossible in your life you must see what's not there. You have to see beyond your circumstances and come to grip with who you truly are and where that path will lead you. There will be failures, there will be mishaps and many nights of questions and tears. the point is there are all needed. In defining who you are and what will become of of you, you must have the following moments:
1. Clarifying Moments
These are moments that bring clarity and cause you to make a change for the better. It's when you start to understand the "Why". It's requires you to step outside of your current symptoms, we like to call situations and circumstances, and see the bigger picture.
2. Defining Moments
Similar to clarifying moments, these moments define who we are or most likely who we should be. Defining moments are those moments where you thump your head and says AHA, I should have done this long time ago. It's when you leave that job for a job you thought you would not qualify for, or you start that business you always wanted to, or maybe you say yes to the mate of your dreams, defining moments change the course of your life. It then becomes the moment that defines time. Think about the BC. "before Christ". Get the picture? defining moments can start with a clarifying moment but will grow into a show stopper. Nothing remains the same after these moments.
3. Conception Moments
In order to truly experience the first two moments there must be a conception moment. It that moment you say yes! You say yes to the dream, the vision, the passion and the possibility you allow yourself to dream. You journal, you ask questions, you allow yourself to be swept away. It's the moment you open yourself up to the big WHAT IF. You become pregnant with the dream of greatness.
4. Conscious Moments/Actual Moments
This is being aware of where you are in your journey. You reflect on where you have been and what's still ahead. You understand that there are lessons to be learned in this moment. It's living in the present. This does not mean hinder your progress but it keep you grounded and a force to be reckoned with. It's the proverbial stance. It says, I am here but not for long. Just like those maps in buildings that state you are here. You only check those maps to get your barrens and know which way you should proceed to get to your designation.
It should be clear now that in order to make the impossible happen there is a process we all must go through. the first step is to start to dream. To have faith in the invisible. To understand that great things happen in just a moment. So let your moments happen and remember the most important part is to find WHO you are in the process and dare to be YOU Now.

Dream It! Think It! Work It! Achieve It!
"Your life's journey is about becoming more of who you are." - Oprah Winfrey
I was watching an episode of Master Class on the Oprah Winfrey Network and it highlighted Jane Fonda. Now, I would not suggest that Jane Fonda is a motivational speaker, however, many of the things she said resonated with me as far as being an entrepreneur and a woman trying to find my own way.
She made a statement about an affirmation about something that she thought she could not do, acting, changed her life and she found her focus. She found the very thing that would cause her to want to get up in the morning and live her best life.
Many of us have dreams and those dreams seem to be out of reach for us now. Maybe like Jane we think we are too fat, too ugly, uninteresting and forgotten. All it really takes is one person to see you for what is on the inside of you. On the inside screaming clawing to get out and make it's mark. Why not dream it now. See what is really possible for your life and go after it.
Once it becomes a dream, you will start to live, breath and think it. It will take over your conscious thought. It will become an obsession. You will have to start thinking of ways to make it happen. If you understand what it is that you love, your passion will cause you to form a plan to achieve it.
Once that plan is made clear to you, work it! I like to say if you work the plan the plan will work. If you put all your efforts into the achievement of your dream, your dream will gladly surrender itself to you. It will yield to you all the fruits of your labor and more.
Once you have achieved your dream, dream again!
