- Dream a Little and Start Somewhere.
For the last 10 years that my husband and I have been married, we schedule a specific date night that we call “Dream Nights”. It is something that we look forward to because it takes our minds off of the craziness of life and exports us to a place where we can talk about our desires, ambitions and outrageous dreams. We write them all down and then we choose one or two that we feel are possible to achieve over the next year.
Unfortunately for me, all of this dreaming lasts for such a short period of time before my realist side kicks in. I limit myself to what I think I can accomplish immediately. It is fun to dream, but if you are anything like me, I start questioning everything, like, “Do you really think you can make this happen?”, “Will we even have the finances to go on that trip?”, “Will I have time to invest in those relationships?”
But, what I discovered this year was that I just needed to take the first step forward. Ignore that loud voice in your head that says this is too big and start somewhere. Who said that dreams can’t come true?
