You Can't Get It Just By Dreaming Of It - By Chin Kai Rong

Almost every single person both you and I know wants to have something more than what they have now. Some wanted more money; others wanted more time. There are also those who dreamt of bigger houses, more luxurious cars or designer clothes to fill up their closet. But how many times have you seen them work towards it? More often than not, these people are just dreaming of it, hoping that one day what they want will appear right in front of them. We both know that that day will never come. Knowing what you want is not sufficient. You need to work towards it and right away.

People who became rich did not just dream of being rich. They study them and learn what they know. They spent time with those who think and act like the rich. They communicate like a wealthy person. They behave like what rich people behave. They learn to speak with confidence and make critical decisions. The point is do not stay what you are right now and hope for results. You wouldn't break a glass and try to put it back together by slamming it on the floor again. You would only break the glass more. You need to take a different approach by gluing the glass back together. The same goes for you.

When taking a different approach, you need to know what you are doing exactly and not blindly. Staying focused is the key to achieving what you desired. The Wright brothers did not just invent airplanes overnight. They did not succeed after their first try too. Instead of giving up, they tried various method while keeping in mind what they are trying to invent. That is focus. Eventually, after countless efforts put into their work, they succeeded and achieved their dream of bringing humans up into the sky. Rich people did not gain instant wealth because they worked harder. Of course they worked hard to get to where they are, but it is much more than just being industrious. It is what they worked hard on, the they things they thought about while working on those things and what they focused on while creating that wealth.

Fear is one factor that sometimes prevent us from achieving our goals. Our fears can hold us back from doing many things that we can and want to do most in life. For example, a person may want to set up a company, run it and be its own boss. He has been dreaming of it his whole life and that opportunity appeared right before his eyes one day. However, for fear that he might encounter the many difficulties that most companies might experience, he decided to give that golden opportunity a miss! Because of fear, he had given up the chance to finally do what he had wanted to do initially. Fear has been defined as False Evidence Appearing Real – F.E.A.R. So, my advice is to just face it. Just remember that you get one step closer to your goals of being a more confident less fearful person each time you face your fear.

You cannot get what you want just by dreaming of it. Take action now and confront all your fears. You will eventually turn out a better person in life, one that is another step closer to success.
