Dreams Never Die Till... (1)

Nothing can be more alive in the inner recesses of our minds than our dreams. That is the proof of the incontestable superiority of our dreams to all other ideas and thoughts swirling around our brains for attention. The reason is that our rise and fall in life depends on the types of dream we harbour and nurture in our minds.

Dreams lay the cornerstone that marks the strength of our foundation upon which our ambitions are built. Great dreams are the springboard from which we pursue after opportunities to actualize what we wish to become in life.

Dreams fires up a momentum within the dreamer and spurs him indefinitely to hard-work for which his or her zeal knows no respite till the opportunities present themselves to translate those latent potentials into manifest substances.

We have to visualize clearly in our minds what we want to become as early as possible during those critical developmental periods in life and acquire the right resources along the way as we progress and grow up in the midst of contending dreams.
We must cultivate the right attitude and associate with the right people and seek out for opportunities lurking in all environments waiting to be explored.

We mustn’t linger on forever in a particular place while searching for the proverbial Golden Fleece Time is of the essence.

Time enough to spend on making positive contacts should be balanced with patient perseverance to explore available possibilities that could yield up something tangible to inspire hope.

The first breakforth of opportunity is not necessary the end of our search but just a token pay-off for initial efforts. That is just something to set up better strategies to comb the entire horizon before us for bigger prizes. It is not a mere stroll through the park and it is not an impossible task either to uncover the hidden treasures lying fallow beneath the surface for the exploitation of those who want it most.

The dreamer is set upon his or her mission with the object of their quest the target or nothing else. With that sort of single-minded determination the dreamer is unstoppable till mission accomplished. That achievement is also a spur on his or her blooming ambition to occupy a distinctive place of excellence amongst the best of the world.
