"You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration”
Everyone has aspirations… we have a choice every day to realize them and in turn actualize them. Sometimes what we want the most is so strong that it stops us from actually achieving it. How is that possible? The fear of success, or the anxiety of something so huge and unimaginable pushes us into an uneasy place of the unknown. We are taught at a young age that the unimaginable is the unattainable. We are taught to agree that we can’t “make it” if we dream. But I do not agree. I believe dreaming is what makes us great, what allows us to see ourselves as the best that we can be. I am finally working consciously towards actualizing my aspirations (my dreams) into reality. As I do this, my dreams, hopes and of course aspirations grow and develop and push forward into an even bigger mountain of achievements waiting to be accomplished. I look forward to the challenge and promise every day to do the best that I can do.
Everyone has aspirations. Have you realized yours?
(Title quote - James Allen)
