- The Dream Giver gave me a Big Dream before I was even born I just finally woke up to it!
- My Dream is what I do best and what I most love to do. How could I have missed it for so long?
- I had to sacrifice and make big changes to pursue my Dream, but it will be worth it.
- It makes me sad to think that so many Nobodies are missing something so Big.
These are the thoughts of Ordinary after he decides to embrace his big dream. I can remember being in this place just a year ago. I knew there was something on the inside that was tugging and calling for more, but I couldn't see myself being or doing more. I would ignore the pull, disregard the whisper, cast off any thought of being more. I had never seen anyone in my family do what my heart and mind had conceived that I could do. Then I could no longer watch time go by and think that one day my dream would come to me and everything would be what I had always imagined it to be. I got up from my recliner, the place of comfortability, and set off for the place of unfamiliar. Scared? Yes! But, I knew the Dream Giver had given me this dream for more.
I recall sitting at the feet of my mother as she prepared her speeches for church. I would listen to every inflection in her voice. I would watch her motions and how she would stop and jot down something else. Then she would record it, again. When she would leave the house I would go in her room and play her recording. Then I found myself recording my own voice. My dream of being a motivational speaker was conceived.
But, then life happened... I encountered the neigh-sayers. My dream seemed impossible, but the dream never died. Every time I would hear a speaker, in my gut I would think...I can do that! What is it that causes you to say those same words...I CAN DO THAT!!! Don't let your dream die. Go after it with all your heart and soul.
