Sunday's Vitamin: Please... don't stop dreaming

Simple motivational ideas... for a good start of your week
 
Do you have big dreams that seem difficult to be achieved?
Do you see that your conditions & surroundings will prevent you from growing & excelling?
Before you answer, please read this story:

A few years ago a world famous American rock band called “Journey” was looking for a new lead singer.
The guitar player of the band spent weeks surfing the net searching for someone to fill the vacancy at least for their next few concerts.
He searched for a long time until he saw a video by a young man named Arnel Pineda who was singing the band’s songs in an amazing way.
The guitar player sent Pineda an email & then called inviting him to be tested in California!
But who was Pineda?
He was a poor Philippine young man living in Manila. His family was very poor, his mother died when he was 13 years old, he quit school, used to live mostly in the streets working low-grade jobs, and ended by working as a singer with some Philippine bands.
Pineda was astonished by the American band’s invitation…
On the first day of the tests he was very scared & thus sang very badly!!
The next day was a bit better, but on the third day magic filled the studio & the musicians were blown away by the singing talent of Pineda.
The band offered him the chance to join them in the next group of concerts, & Pineda's first performance was at a concert in Chile that was televised to 25,000,000 people! 
He was frightened by the crowd in front of him, but within minutes he started having fun, stopped being scared & began to amaze his audience. 
Through the concerts, Pineda’s humility, ethics, willingness to learn and passion to win pleased the members of the band, thus they offered him a permanent role as the band’s lead singer, where he would receive 1/5 of all profit; exactly like the others! 
Pineda is now a famous rock star, who lives a life he never could have imagined.

I am not telling you this story to sit down and wait for luck to knock your door.
I am telling you the story to decide on big goals, plan for them & work hard to achieve them, so that when the chance knocks your door, you are ready to capture it!
So, please don’t ever stop dreaming & believing that you can one day, by God’s support, realize the greatest of your dreams.

    1. As you said we have not to wait until luck knocking our doors but we have to be unique to get the proper gains.

    2. Sure Dr, but please give me more insights on how every one of us can be unique. It is not easy in today's competitive environment. So what is your advice?

    3. Remember to remember means remember to be aware. Remember to be aware in this moment right now. Being aware is seeing everything around you, hearing everything around you, feeling everything around you, and being completely focused on what you are doing right now.

      Most people bring what they do not want because they are not aware that they are listening to the thoughts in their heads about the past and the future. They are not even aware that they are being hypnotized by those thoughts, and are therefore living their life unconsciously.

      When you remember to be aware, you are aware immediately. You just have to remember to remember!

    5. I think to be unique, you have to think freely using your own thoughts depending on your good knowledge and experience and not to be a follower to the other thoughts ( that not mean neglecting the the thoughts of the others which have to be used or put as a background) , and you have to know deeply every thing about what you are going to do, this not an easy gob it needs to remember to remember .
