Is Your Dream Too Big?

The year was 2010. The place, was Jack Canfield's "Breakthrough to Success" Workshop. The assignments: create a bucket list AND define your life purpose.

Are you kidding?

I had never crafted a life purpose statement OR a bucket list.

After the shock of it all, I put my thinking cap on and tackled the assignment.

It took the entire week to complete these assignments.

But once finished, I packed my "stuff" and got outa "dodge".

Back in Chicago I wondered HOW I would be able to sing The National Anthem in Wrigley Field.

More importantly, was I dreaming too big?

After networking some, I found someone to record my CD for me.

I packaged the CD and sent it to the CUBS organization.....

Two weeks later, I received a "no thank you" letter AND a returned CD.

Not to be deterred, I went through the same antics for the next three years.

Then, in 2013, something changed.

I was asked to sing the anthem in the "Captain Morgan Bar" NOT on the field.

Utter disappointment, but I complied.

Guess what?

The vice president of entertainment happened to come into the bar.

I was introduced to him and it was THEN that he extended an invitation for me to sing The National Anthem ON THE FIELD, on Aug.13, 2013!!!

My entire family - 7 sisters and 1 brother (and their spouses) were in attendance.

It was an evening I will NEVER forget.

So, the question still remains...."Is your dream too big?"

NEVER!!! "You're not given a wish without the power to make it come true."
