When you were a child you had all these beautiful dreams and you said "When I grow up I want to be a pilot, doctor, lawyer, airhostess"..Years later into adulthood do you wonder what became of your dream? Did life get into the way or did you become too busy even to use your imagination?

It is common to share your dreams with a family member or friend and instead of hearing an encouraging remark all you get is "Dream On! Or Get Real." What do such comments make you feel? Yet you know there are examples of thousands of people who dared to dream and achieved their dreams for example Thomas Edison the person who invented the light bulb. Let me tell you something, to achieve your dreams you need to combine imagination with reality.

Why then do 9 out of 10 people never live their dreams to become successful? Do any of the following statements sound familiar to you?

• i I do not know what to do
• ii I have a busy lifestyle and no spare time
• iii I have no patience
• iii I do not want to fail
• iii I have no money

These are just a few of the excuses why people do not take charge of their lives to achieve their dreams. It is now up to you to make that decision and take charge of your life bearing in mind " You are not a drop in the ocean, you are the ocean in a drop" - Rumi.
