Only those who dream something will be able to achieve it. A few decades back, no one would have imagined that the world will come closer to each other with the help of the internet. Millions of people have used it, and it could only be possible because of a person who has this dream to provide our world with one of the best creations of humans; the internet.
People who do not have a dream of their own cannot see the vision of a person with a much bigger dream. Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam once said that “Dreams are not those which comes while we are sleeping, but dreams are those when you don’t sleep before fulfilling them.’
The context of this statement is that people dedicate their lives to fulfill their dreams. The reasons why Dr. Kalam was capable of saying this statement was that he once had a big desire to make his country proud. His dream was to help his country in developing and thus fulfilled his dream by developing the Satellite Launch Vehicle and ballistic missiles.
He was only capable of achieving this dream because he had a vision and a clear idea of what should be done. What if he hasn’t dreamed big? A human is nothing without their dreams.
The reason for mentioning this great leader was to make you understand the importance of having bigger dreams in our life. Some of the people have dreams, but they are not big enough to keep you motivated to achieve them. As a result, you end up giving on them. Ask yourself one question, do your dreams scare you? If you get the answer as a no, then keep in mind that they are not big enough.
People become what they dream of. If you are dreaming small, then remember that you will always be small. To become a successful person, you should have a clear vision and a great idea that will assist you becoming what you want to be. Every successful person you have ever heard of would probably have a dream in which they put in all their life and converted their dream into reality.
Let’s consider a relatable example to make you understand even further. Imagine that you are going to purchase a car, you get a clear idea of what you are looking for. Its features, its boot space, its engine and every other thing that will affect the car you finally choose. If you have imagined that you will get a basic car, then you will only look out for that car and will not look any further than that. There are possibilities that you may find a better alternative, but your thinking will act as a barrier between you and that car.
This example was evidently not a guide to help you in getting a car, but getting a better life motive. We only achieve what we dream of and nothing more than that. If you dream small, then ultimately you will only receive a minor. However, if you dream big, then you will not be satisfied till you achieve it.
Nothing is going to motivate you better than your own thoughts. People may believe that your dream is too big to be achieved which is impossible. However, if you have dreamed of that, then you can accomplish that as well. Only your dream is the thing that can keep you motivated to be what you want to be.
Your focus is the thing that will keep you with your dreams. To achieve your dream, you need to stay focused towards it. Only those people who dream big stay focused and put in all their efforts to make their dream a reality. It not only helps you in getting a better person but will also allow you to enhance your concentration on specific goals.
After you set bigger goals, you will find out that you need to put in more efforts and improve themselves. When it comes to achieving bigger dreams, self-improvement is not an option, rather it is necessary. You can’t fulfill your dream without putting in efforts to improve yourself. People who dream big realize that they cannot live their dream by following on the same path that they used for the smaller motives. They have found a better alternative and pick out the possibilities that might help them in growing.
With bigger dreams come the bigger risk of failure. Moreover, failure is not like chicken-pox that can only occur once to a person. Instead, it is like a cold which can appear every once in a while. Big dreamers know that they have a higher risk of failure than smaller dreams. When failure comes multiple times, people either feel too demotivated or stay focused entirely on their dream.
People who give up certainly shows that their dream was not big enough. For those who stay motivated, the failure makes them mentally, and emotionally strong to face multiple failures and always stay strong as their dream is a lot bigger than giving up.
As we have mentioned that bigger dreams require bigger efforts, but all that efforts will go to waste if you are not utilizing the time accordingly. You need to be very careful with the time as once gone; it will never come back. Time management is an ability which can be found in those people who are extremely serious about their dream. They cannot take any chances with their time, and hence learn to manage their time. It all depends on you that how well do you manage your time, but always make sure that you pick out the right time slot for the right thing.

Without a doubt, bigger dreams need extended efforts, but the results you get are surely worth it. Not only they will make you successful in the future, but will also help you in getting the best out of you and becoming a person that you always wanted to be.
