I have been reflecting on several things in the past weeks. one of this is something I always tell my former direct
reports when I need to remind them to take care of themselves and avoid bum out “You can’t give what you oon1
have.”

Remembering this, I ask myself- Is it selfish to go after your own dream? and I ended up asking myself
“What joy can you give to others if you haven’t given it to yoursell first?” Post reflection, allow me to share
some questions and thoughts below:

What’s your dream? Want to give your vision a jumpstart? Write down your goals and use these questions
to speed up the delivery of your dream.

1. What’s your highest priority in this lifetime? What’s most important for you to experience, explore or
   embrace this time around? Until you answer this question, your life goals will be off-purpose. Unaligned
   with your inner passion, your intentions will lack the power to attract the people and situations
   necessary to become a reality. Get clued into your true joy. What activities did you enjoy as a child? What
   are your hobbies now? When your goals are aligned with your soul, synchronicity kicks in to guide you to
   your target

2. ls this your dream or someone else’s? Are your goals your choice or what others think you should
   strive for? Do you want to look back in your old age and wish you had followed your passion? Will you
   regret having “played it safe?” Is it selfish to go after your own dream? What JOY can you give to others If
   you haven’t given it to yourself first?
3. Are you settling for less than? Are you resigned to accepting less than your full share of love, health
   and success this lifetime? Have you compromised and sacrificed your dream? Anything short of having
   your true passions will never make you happy.
4. What will you feel like when you reach your dream? Personal passion fuels a vision. Dive into the thrill
   and exhilaration of the feeling of living your dream. The Hawaiian Kahuna say, “Where your creative
   attention flows, so flows your life·
5. What steps can you take today toward your dream? Don’t defer your dream. Set up supports and
   systems around you to instantly translate your intentions into action. Jump on every opportunity that is
   in line with your purpose and vision. Are there smaller projects that lead to your larger dream? If the
   dream is to run a marathon, train for a local fun-run first. And find a way to measure your progress. Track
   those little wins by writing in a journal or telling a friend
6. Are you telling yourself “I can’t have my dream?” Most people don’t believe they can live their dream
   Either their belief system has them believe they can’t make a living doing what they love, or they feel
   they don’t deserve their dream. To avoid the pain of failing they can’t have their dream, people often keep
   their dream so buried they can’t remember they ever had a dream
   Everyone has a dream! Everyone is destined to fulfill that purpose.
   Why wait?
   Have a blessed day everyone•
