10 Secrets To Discovering Your Dream And Living It
6. Make a plan
Now you have to make a plan. You have to work towards your dream by getting training, starting to work after that, saving, and possibly becoming the master of it in a few years. So for instance, you chose swimming. You first get trained in swimming, then you start working as an Assistant Coach, then you become a Coach. And if you’ve saved enough by then, you start your own swimming training academy. Of course, it all sounds a lot easier on paper. But you’ve got to get started somewhere, so start now.
7. Stay Committed
You have to stay focused and committed all the time. The journey to living your dream may not necessarily be very easy, but making it enjoyable is totally up to you. Love every minute of what you are doing and keep reminding yourself that this is what you wanted to do, and the end result is going to be fantastic.
8. Get Inspired
Read and know more about legends in your area of work. Learn from their stories. Know about their hardships. Watch tournaments and TV shows that keep you inspired. For instance, if you aim to make a living out of swimming, follow the Olympics and know about the world’s best swimmers. Know what they do, and what is it that you can do to improve your technique and performance. Basically, learn from the positive experiences of other people and stay motivated and inspired all the time.
9. Expand your horizons
Another thing that you need to do to stay motivated and inspired at all times is to keep expanding your horizons. If after few years of working hard, you’ve somewhat achieved your dream, then look for the next big thing that you can do. For instance, if you’ve finally opened your own swimming academy and are happy with the way your life turned out, then expand into scuba diving or deep sea diving. Get certifications for those, and then add training services for them as well in your academy. Keep looking for new goals to achieve, new dreams to fulfill, and your life will be wonderful each second.
10. Live to the fullest
The point of being able to discover your dream and to live it is to not tell the world that you’ve achieved something in life, but more to keep yourself happy. It is all about your own contentment and satisfaction; so when you die, you feel that you had a good life. That’s why it is important for you to live each second of your life to the fullest. There will be times when you will feel like giving up. There will also be times when you will suddenly discover your love for something else, and that will be greater than the love you have for something you are doing now. So what? Experiment. Change paths! Follow multiple passions at the same time. Do whatever it is that keeps you happy and fulfills your inner soul’s cravings!
They always say that do what you love and money will follow. And if you are not bothered about the money, then discovering your dream shouldn’t be that difficult a task. Open yourself to newer experiences so that you start to know yourself better and can distinguish between what you like and what you don’t like.
