Continue to sleep with dreams or wake up and chase the dreams

I am sure "Dreaming" starts pretty early in your growing up age. But I am not sure when you learn about there is something called "You have to Chase the dreams and that's the only way to achieving them". You see some dream, somewhat impossible... but still follow it throurgh work for it then get some encouragement from your support system and you see it happening in front of you... and there is some "Aha!" moment in your life that this is doable. If you really really work towards something impossible and you can achieve it and slowly you start believing in "Chasing the dreams".

Of course if you are lucky and observant, you also see some examples of people successfully achieving what seemed impossible in your family/friend circle or your belief starts growing up. You see some failures too and see what can be the learning. And as a normal regular person, there are always multiple dreams one is following. And these can be non related too. As I have a dream of having a healthy body for as long as I am on this beautiful earth... and I need to work on that dream everyday and that does not comes in between any other dream. Maybe it is supporting every other dream.

My other dream is to read about as many subjects as possible for the sake of knowledge as I always believe that knowing more makes you see things differently therefore I do not restrict myself to one subject and read about anything what sounds interesting at that moment. Also the way to chase this dream for me is to read whenever I find time. So I actually never have a free time as such as in the free time I am mostly reading something. My other dream is to visit as many places and Visit as a traveler (and not as a Tourist.) So I read about any place before visiting and learn more about the same.

I know that there are short term and long term dreams which you are seeing for you and your family and near and dear ones. There are dreams you have for your organization. And there are some dreams you see for your country like "Poverty Free India" and "Clean and Garbage free India" etc. Each and every day for you is then the chase for those dreams. As Life throws at you some challenges and your priority for a particular day or days changes and you loose sight of your dreams. And due to changing circumstances, you also alter your dreams but some times you just forgo chasing some dreams and start seeing/believing/following chasing new dreams. And I think that is how it is supposed to be.

Basically sometimes you do some thinking while trying to figure out the meaning of things/dreams we are chasing and of course sometimes we feel that God has given us life and told "Life is for Living" and we need to add the one more word to that "Happily" and then we need to match our dreams with our happiness and keep on altering our dreams to ultimate aim of Life.. i.e. Living Happily always.

I still remember a rhyme I read in school:

Dream what you dare to dream.

Do what you want to do.

Be what you want to be.

To be a champion

struggle with life.

If you know the door

it must open.

You just have to ask

bravely.

Have you seen some people have emphasised the need for working hard more than dreaming. Of course that is important. But what really inspires us to do that hard work, the often tenacious boring stuff. Its the beauty of our dreams. Dreams inspire us to go that extra mile before we rest. Dreams & hard work go hand in hand. If one dies, both die.

If you read the biographies of famous people you will come to know that what really defines them is there willingness to hustle; it is their willingness to do stuff that most people won't even think of doing; it is their willingness to work for hours that most people will always give a second thought about before investing. Successful people hustle while you sleep. They hustle while you have a cocktail party. They hustle while you gossip your way out throughout the day. They hustle while you sit there daydreaming about the stuff you want. Cheers!
