I’m a believer that the bigger your hopes, dreams and goals – the bigger your results. 

Here are 3 reasons for dreaming BIG: 

1. Your inner motivators begin to take hold when you have something exciting and powerful you truly want to make a reality. 

I’ve been working on my new Vision Board (see the videos on this blog) and as I glued the words and pictures on it, I realized that I have some lofty goals.

I also realized I started to get pretty excited seeing my goals in pictures – pictures of things I want to become reality in my life. Now, when I think about sleeping in or watching a dumb program on TV, I go and take a look at my vision board. 

Here’s what I found from personal experience – the bigger and more emotionally charged you can make your emotional “why” – the more likely you’ll achieve your goals.

 2. When you have a purpose, you can powerfully focus your time and energy. 

Have you ever noticed that as you are getting ready to go on an exciting vacation you’re laser-beamed focused on what you want to get finished before you leave? You’re more organized, have well thought-out to-do lists and even seem to have more energy. 

That’s what dreaming BIG and having a goal can do for you. Going for your dreams should keep you laser-beamed focused on doing those useful things that will take you positively forward.

 3. Dreaming BIG helps you to look toward the future, positively. Dreams give you hope – the hope that things can be and will be bigger, brighter and better. 

Every one needs a BIG dream. Why? A BIG dream has the power to get us up in the morning to do those day-to-day things that take us positively toward the future. We have choices - we can choose not to have hope or we can choose to excitedly head toward the future.

My choice – to look at my vision board first thing in the morning and feel the hope for an exciting and BIG future!
