Endless Possibilities

Picture a young woman caring for her niece and nephew. They drove a seriously mechanically impaired car from town to town. Even though they had very little money and were essentially homeless, they held a deep love for each other.  At the request of the children's hospitalized mother, the young woman technically kidnapped her niece and nephew to prevent them from going into foster care.  She loved them so much that she put herself at risk with the law in order to love and care for the children. Deep in her heart she knew that her love and tender care of the kids would be more beneficial to them than any foster care. Though I never advocate breaking the law, I understand her motives were pure. Of course as many Disney type stories evolve, she fell in love with the local sheriff and he fell in love with her and the kids.

The message of the story came from the sheriff speaking to Lanie, the little girl, and telling her that “anything is possible” in books. The kids had experienced such a rough life before their aunt took over to care for them that they had lost hope. Lanie no longer believed that anything good was possible. Of course, Lanie learned to read and explore the world of imagination and possibility through her books. She learned to feel the comfort of love for the first time in her young life. With love and peace in her life, she learned to believe that indeed not only good existed for her and her brother but “all things were possible.” What a beautiful gift. She learned love and hope and positive possibilities.

In this season of Thanksgiving, dwell on hope. Focus your energy on your imagination and the realization that “all things are possible.” Despite the economic situation, the political situation and even your individual financial situation, all things are possible.

First create a positive image firmly in your mind about the exact circumstances you desire for your life. The gift of dreams and imagination can never be taken away from you without your permission. No one and nothing can ever strip your dreams away from you. Within your imagination all things are possible.
Walt Disney created the entire Disney experience in his mind first. Pen did not touch paper nor does a spade touch the dirt before he visualized the complete project in his imagination. Every creation, every product, every company, and every service were once the glimmer of an idea in the imagination. Dare to dream and imagine the future you desire and deserve. Dare to touch that creative spirit within your soul which knows that all things are possible. Touch that child-like power within you which knows no limits.

Ronald Reagan spoke before Congress when he was President. Reagan reminded them that the Republic was a dream and that without dreams, the Republic would die. Our great country, United States of America, was once just a vision in the eyes and minds of our founding fathers. All things are possible in the imagination.

Tap into your dreams and goals. What dream still looms in your mind and heart? What is it that you truly, passionately desire? What is holding you back from beginning? You do not have to be good to start, but you must start in order to be good.

All things are possible in the imagination. Everything starts as an idea in the imagination. All things are possible. The key to true success and the realization of dreams and goals starts with a dream in the imagination. Unless you take action to begin the process of turning those dreams into reality, the dreams die. Don’t die with your music still in you. Dare to begin making your dreams come true.

“Whatever you do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius and power and magic in it.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

All things are possible. Dreams and imagination produce ecstasy when placed into action.

Massive Action

Warren Buffett did not become wealthy by investing the loose change in his pocket. Bill Gates created Microsoft by daring to dream big goals. Walt Disney did not visualize one amusement ride. Olympic athletes do not spend time at the gym casually visiting and half heartedly doing one or two exercises.

Every successful person takes massive action. Dare to dream big goals, choose to design a massive action plan to achieve those goals and commit to implementing that plan today. Regardless of whether your dream is making money online with a home based business or a franchise or a brick and mortar business, the business principles are identical. Every successful person and every successful business followed exactly the same formula.

Start by having a heart to heart talk with yourself. What do you passionately desire to achieve? The key words are ”you passionately desire to achieve.” Your goal must light your soul on fire with an all consuming passionate desire. Selecting a goal which you think you should choose or one that someone else chooses for you creates a disaster in the long term.

My father declared that I did not deserve a college education and that I would stay in the local farm community and get some mundane job as a secretary at a local business. The very thought of doing that drained the life out of me. History records many instances of people who attempted to live the life someone else, usually a well meaning parent, designed for them. Rarely did that lead to a successful and fulfilling life for the child.

This is your life. This is the only life you will have on this earth. You have the right and duty to design the life you desire to live, create the plan to make that goal a reality and take the massive action necessary to implement that plan. IF YOU DO NOT DESIGN THE PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE, BY DEFAULT SOMEONE ELSE WILL DESIGN IT. Who do you believe will do a better job of designing the life you truly choose to live? You or someone else?

Jim Rohn, noted business philosopher asks what you think someone else has designed for you and answers the question. “Not much.” Are you willing to settle for “not much” for your life? I am not. Refer back to Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Walt Disney and Jim Rohn. Each one of these men created an incredible empire for themselves by following a simple formula. They dreamed a massive goal, visualized that goal completed, designed a plan to bring that goal into reality and took the necessary massive action to achieve.

Successful business people all follow exactly the same simple formula. Business principles remain consistent throughout the centuries. Whether you choose a successful small business or a gigantic corporation, the business principles are identical. The only difference between where you are right now and where these financial giants are at the peak of their careers is the dream, the plan and the massive action.

You have more opportunities right now with the online business potential than ever before in history. Success comes to those who dream big and take massive action.
