Make every Sunday Dream Day

I'm starting a new tradition. Every Sunday is Dream Day. From now on I'm going to dedicate at least 2 hours of my Sunday to writing down my dreams, reviewing my vision statement and brainstorming how I can achieve my dreams. I also will reflect on what I did the previous week to achieve those dreams.

Why Most People Fail:

Most people don't start with vision or if they have vision they lose sight of it. We can do anything. I think of Disneyland's motto  from Walt Disney, " If you can dream it , you can do it." That doesn't mean anything you ever dreamt is possible, it means you can accomplish anything you want when you have a clear vision of that dream. You actually have to do the act of dreaming. Dreaming isn't a fleeting image or a rash thought. It's concentrating on your goals and envisioning what you want already coming true for you.

So every Sunday I am going to actively dream .

Today after church when I'm done praising God, I am going to go to Starbucks get on their free wifi and consolidate every dream I've ever jotted down in my iPhone into one master dream list. Next I'll turn my list into two master vision statements. One for the next year and one for 5 years from now. Often we overestimate what we can accomplish in one year, but ironically underestimate what we can do in 5. 

Then I'm going to send it to our mentor Jesse Macpherson who asked us to send him vision statements. 

And then the most important part. 

Print that list and vision statements at staples, buy a frame from Dollar Tree and frame those vision statements so I can hang them on my wall.

Dream Binder: 

For my business it's very effective to have before-and-after pictures. I'm going to make a professional binder with all the pictures and include my dreams and vision statement. Every Sunday I can be reminded of my dream while being reminded of the vehicle that will take me there. And when I talk to others who want to start a business I can show them my dreams to inspire them as well.

I highly recommend you do the same thing. Pick a day, once a week, when you just review your dreams and where you're going. Most people fail to achieve their dream because they lose sight of it during the every day activities. 

Select one. It doesn't have to be Sunday but it needs to be consistent. I'll keep you posted on what it does for me and if you notice a difference in your life from a dream day routine, I'd love to hear your story.  E-mail me or post on this blog.
