4 ways to destroy your dream instead of pursuing it. Learn about dream killers and dream makers on your dream marathon.
[Show Notes]
Your dream is made up of your purpose, calling and destiny. Purpose is a pulling force. Your calling is a pushing force and your destiny is a guiding force. To live your dream you will need to run several small marathons but how you respond to adversities during the marathons will determine if you are successful. A famous character Joseph had a dream that was bigger than his current reality. Lacking leadership he experienced several adversities; left to die by his brothers, betrayed by his employers wife, thrown into prison, abandon and rejected but his dream was so powerful that the dream killers could not prevent him from becoming one of the greatest leaders in history. Whatever circumstances are or the situations you find yourself in, live a life of honor, operate in wisdom, be humble, develop your personal leadership skills, find out what your strengths and gifts are and allow your gifts to contribute to others. Your gift will make room for you and cause you to be attractive to others. Joseph's did and he become one of the greatest and strategic leader and lived to see his teenage dream become a reality.
4 ways in which you can destroy you dream:
Become a "Cop-Out" making excuses as to why you have not, did not, could not
Get into a state called "Mellowed" which is really allowing yourself to be in a state of mediocrity, without focus, direction and allowing your dream to die.
Dancing with "Distractors and Negators". Wasting your time, focusing on the wrong priorities, being told you cannot, cannot, should, not, will fail.
"Drop-Out" decided this is too hard, procrastinate and quit in the end.
How will your story end? Will you pursue your dream or give up? Will you hate the learning process or will you find the opportunity during adversities? Will you go from the Pit to the Palace like Joseph because he choose not to Cop-Out, Mellowed, Dance with Distractors and Negators and Drop-Out?
The decision is yours. Listen and learn how Joseph grew into personal leadership and be inspired to dust off your dreams and pursue them.
