Reach Your Boiling Point.

2009 December 28

The world is full of dreamers that have been brave enough to dream big dreams in this world of doubt. All of the great innovations and creations have blossomed from our great dreamers. Apple, Disney, and every single one of our great companies all started from nothing more than a dream from one person.

Dreaming big dreams is great, and an important first step in the process to greatness, but the dirty truth is that in order for your dreams to have significance, you must have action too. You must take the steps necessary to make them a reality. I think sometimes we get so caught up in our dreams by thinking about what life will be like one day when we reach a certain level of success, that we lose sight of what it will take to get there. It gives us enough satisfaction to keep us going on and to continue dreaming, but we fail to actually take the action to get us there.

If you really truly want to become great, you cannot simply have a dream or vision. You must combine your vision with venture and action. Vision is not enough. Dreaming is not enough. Dreaming is nothing more than a thought when it is not combined with action. It holds no power and has no force to push it beyond a simple thought. The greatest, coolest, most innovative, ingenious dreams will never become anything without action.

The world is full of people that dream big dreams. That long inside for something better. We have all seen the people who are going to “one day” write that book, or “one day” start that business. The truth is that their dreams will never formulate to more than a dream if they fail to take action. You can spend a lifetime of dreaming and never producing anything. They have not reached that point where they are tired of just holding onto a dream. They need to reach a point where they have that burning desire inside to make it a reality.

I believe you must reach a boiling point inside yourself. That point inside where you become fed up with just dreaming and want to actually make your dreams happen. Where you lose the “one day I am going to be…” and start saying, “today I am going to be.” It’s no longer about “becoming great” it’s about “doing what it takes to get there.”

Real success is never given. It is taken by those with the willpower and the determination to ACT.

Although having dreams are extremely important, they hold no power without action. You have to step out of that dream state and walk through the door. Reach that boiling point inside yourself, where you will stop dreaming and start doing.

    I just don’t understand why makes people so obsessed with success from material thing – not their spiritual side – which that can be relative for most of them. I think we can makes some giant plan but in the end they need procees to apply it.It takes alot times and energy.And maybe this is a reason some people think dreams is just a dreams and need to back to reality. Btw Good Point for us to reviews our quality of life.

    Excellent blog!
    Though (after reading it) one could say: “why belabor the obvious?” but the fact is: it IS true that the world is filled with dreamers of: “one day I will[ers] and “one day I am going to[ers].”
    A thought provoking and a necessary motivational piece for those days that we all have those moments when we should be acting rather than dreaming or deciding to “take a break” (dreaming nonetheless).

    That pot of boiling water with the fire underneath wasn’t a bad choice to support your blog-great visual. :)

    Love it!

    Great post and one that I needed to read today. Thanks for the reminder and for reminding me to re-light the flame… action and vigor is 100% what turns a dream into reality.
