Building the Dream
If nothing will fail and money is not a concern – what would you do? How would you live? Where would you live? With who (whom?) would you live?
Goals are the concrete foundations you need to allow the dream. You can write down the steps to goals, you can chart a path to goals – but why are you doing all that work?
The dream.
Your dream.
If there is no emotionally charged dream for you – you will drift and never work hard enough.You need a dream to direct the work muscles.
Freedom is a dream. Free from what you ask? – well what ties you down?
Money is not a dream, its a goal – but what you may use the money for is the dream.
Money all by itself turns ugly and corroded. It turns in on itself, and makes you turn in on yourself. Power is ego run amok. Power leads to the abyss. Its not a pleasant (or short) fall when you get there.
But money buys (in the western world) dreams. Money can buy freedom. Money can buy you the right not to worry about money. The right for your family not to worry about money and get on with the important things in life.
Money also buys disaster of course. Unless you have a dream. Money does not t have to a goal for your dream. What is you dream?
The dream, something that’s working years for, something that motivates you, deep inside, something that charges you up emotionally. If its all glitter and no emotion – it wont last. It wont drive you.
So?
If all was possible – Where would you live? What kind of house? How many. Do you need a house? If you have or want a family they will certainly want shelter. What kind? Where.
A few details to consider for your house.
How much land is around your house? Is there an ocean or mountains? Do you have horses? Goats? Chickens? sculpted grounds – wild land.
Inside your house. Is it in a warm country? Does it need windows? Is it in temperate lands. How many rooms? Wheres you secret hideaway inside the house where you can just.Sit?
How wide are the corridors? Enough for two people to pass by comfortably – 6 feet? Wide enough for two people to pass comfortably and have side tables and flower arrangements? 9 feet? Alcoves in the hallway?
Are the rooms big enough so you can walk behind the furniture? Or is everything against the wall? Your taste. Your dream
Do you have a shack on the Western Hebrides? Lanai? Fiji? A boat?
A mobile home instead?
A floating home?
Where would you live?
Who would you live with? What kind of relationship do you want with your friends. Your spouse? Your children. In an ideal world. (that you can create).
What work would you do? You will have to do something to stay sane. But not 24/7. Not in your dream.
Travel?
Work for charities? Make movies? Make music. Finance a sick person? Finance homeless people. One person. End poverty on your street, in your town, in your country? Or pick a country end poverty there.
HOW MUCH WILL THIS ALL COST?
Write that down.
Now find a way to make that money appear.
And have your dream
