Memorable Monday - From Dreamer to Doer...

They say America is the land of opportunity, a place where dreams come true. And anyone who watched the Super Bowl yesterday can attest to that. A true Cinderella story, first time Saints beating the almost undefeated Colts. It's re-affirming whether or not you are a Saints fan. It's a testament to my point that dreams really can come true.

The little known fact about dreams is that they often come true AFTER you put a lot of hard work into them. The overnight sensation is most often an overnight sensation just to the public, while he himself has been working several jobs, beating the pavement and making strides for many weeks, months, even years to achieve the dream.

Today is the day to go from dreamer to doer. Shake of the lofty ideas of suddenly being discovered and put pen to paper to outline your dream in attainable bits. List the dream, and list the steps it will take to get there.

Now, take a step...

A dream becomes a goal when action is taken toward its achievement. - Bo Bennett

 You have the courage and power to live your dreams. -Les Brown 

If you don't have a dream, how are you going to make a dream come true? - Oscar Hammerstein

You must go after your wish. As soon as you start to pursue a dream, your life wakes up and everything has meaning.  -Barbara Sher

 If you want your dreams to come true, don't over sleep. -Yiddish Proverb
