4 Reasons Why You Should Go All In On Your Dreams

Everything will come to you at the right time in your life is a mantra many people live by and they love to preach it to others. I’m sure that people in your social circle have told you to take it easy and to ‘enjoy life’ when you tell them how excited you are about your goals.
The first time they told you this you probably welcomed it as a genuine tip, but after a while of constantly repeating the same ‘advice’ it gets annoying. This can be really bothering, especially when it’s coming from the people that you care about the most. The key is to not let their influence affect your decision to go for your goals. I believe that if you really want something then you shouldn’t stop for anything.
Below are the 4 reasons why you should take massive action on your dreams:
1. History tells you the truth
Have you ever heard a successful person talking about how achieving success went really smooth without any obstacle to overcome or sacrifices to make? You don’t, because there are none. Also, have you ever talked about success with just a random person, who didn’t achieve something huge, but just lives an ordinary life like 99% of the people do? You probably have, and they probably were emphasizing how much effort and time you have to invest to become successful.
The difference between these two types of people should tell you enough. Your dream lifestyle doesn’t exist yet, however we’re fortunate enough that we’re able to manifest that lifestyle by putting in the work and time. Many people have been in your shoes and those same people worked hard and smart to achieve their goals and dreams. So, listen to the advice of your friends, but take the advice from the successful people if you want to become one yourself.
“A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.” – Colin Powell
2. Time is scarce
The one thing you should worry about when you’re in doubt about pursuing your dreams or staying in your comfort zone is the matter of time. The longer you stay indecisive, the more valuable time you lose that you could have otherwise spent so much better.
You shouldn’t feel rushed by time, because most likely you won’t achieve the success you desire overnight. However, at the same time you should feel some sense of urgency, because the sooner you start working towards your goals, the faster you’ll get to the place you want to be.
3. Over-delivering brings in more opportunities
There are two types of people on how they approach ‘work’: one just meets the requirements and the other one wants to excel at what he/she does. Be the latter one, because the first one is the attitude of mediocre people. They want to do everything in life with as little effort as possible. That’s why these people never achieved the life they really wanted for themselves.
When you go all in on what you do then not only will the results be much better, but you’ll also leave a good impression on other people. When you consistently over-deliver, people start to acknowledge your achievements and want to get in contact with you, because who wouldn’t want to work with someone who gives his 110% effort in everything?
4. It’s your life
You should not dismiss the advice that you get from people who you know have your best interest at heart. However, at the end of the day you should be the one that’s in control of the decisions that you make in your life. For example, if you always dreamed about having your own multi-million dollar business that employs more than 100 people then who has the right to stop you?
Or maybe you always wanted to have your own restaurant in the town where you grew up. The choice is yours. You are the person who has to deal with the regret, in 10 years from now, if you decide not to pursue your dreams. The people who tell you that you shouldn’t go after your dreams will be fine either way.
Going all in on your vision doesn’t mean that you have to drop everything and focus on only what you want. Instead, it means that you should prioritize what makes you feel happy and fulfilled, because at the end of the day you are your longest commitment. Every person has something unique to offer to the world so don’t let your dream just be a dream.
“Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.” – Harriet Tubman

5 Ways To Invest In Yourself and Change Your Life

Warren Buffett once said, the best investment you can ever make is in yourself. Time and money spent on bettering yourself are never considered a waste. Whether it’s through learning how to make money online, exploring new ways to increase your financial security, or watching TED talks to expand your knowledge. Do not be stingy when it comes to self-improvement because it will definitely pay off in the end.
Need some ideas to get started on your journey to becoming a better you? Here are 5 ways to invest in yourself and transform your life.
1. Change Your Self-Concept
Having a negative self-concept can have a tremendous impact on your life. Limiting beliefs and self-doubt are some of the main reasons why many never achieve or attempt to pursue their dreams. Take a moment and think about all the negative thoughts you have repeated to yourself throughout your life. How have these thoughts impacted the way you live life? From now on, create a new self-image by turning these negative thoughts into positive ones and appreciate your good qualities.
2. Sign Up For An Online Course
If you’ve been wanting to brush up on your Photoshop skills or learn how to code professionally, this is the perfect time to get started. As long as you have a stable internet connection, you can access an endless amount of valuable information online. For example, sites like Coursera and Youtube are both awesome resources for online learning. With a few search strings and clicks, you can find all the information you need.
3. Learn From a Mentor
No matter which stage of your life you are currently in, working with a mentor can help you stay motivated and focused on your goals. Not only can they guide you in the right direction, but also transform your vision, provide you with new insights, and connect you with amazing resources. If you’re feeling unmotivated or unsure about what you want to do in life, consider finding a mentor to help you navigate this process.
4. Start A Side Hustle
The salary from a 9-5 job would rarely allow you to reach your maximum income potential. Why not achieve financial success while pursuing your passion by starting a side hustle? Whether it’s through starting an ecommerce business, freelance writing on the side, or starting a Youtube channel. There are infinite numbers of ways to make money, and there is bound to be one out there that fits your passion and skills.
5. Nourish Your Body
As many may say, “health is the new wealth”. Without a healthy and functioning body, living a fulfilling and comfortable life becomes difficult. To take care of your body and prioritize your wellbeing, start with small habits such as eating healthier foods and exercising regularly. Bike or walk to work instead of taking the car, and opt for a healthy protein bowl instead of greasy burgers at Burger King. With time, these small habits can make an incredible difference.
