Dear friend,

I want you to get a little wild and crazy and remove the leash you place on your imagination, especially when it comes to your dreams. You haven’t stopped dreaming, but I have noticed that you’re looking around at life and timelines and shrinking your dreams and goals.

There’s a fine line between being practical/realistic and settling, and I am afraid you’re settling. Maybe you’re afraid people will think you’re crazy or maybe you have convinced yourself that you’re crazy. Maybe you’re afraid to fail.

I know the unknown is terrifying. Oh, and yes, I know you may not see anyone around you achieving it.

Yet, I still say, dream on. It’s your dream that feeds your soul. It’s the vision that fuels life.

So, tune back into your wild side of dreaming and generating again.

Be crazy about your dream

See yourself in places you have yet to step foot in. Visualize your highest self. Create positive images in your mind where you are thriving and glowing with joy. See yourself happy and at peace.

I know you’re worried about what people will think if you dream a little bigger. But here is the thing: if you stay normal and blend it, people are going to have an opinion, and if you change, they are still going to have an opinion. However, at the end of your life, what will your opinion be of yourself?

What is normal to you is crazy to someone else. What is crazy to you is normal to someone else. So, I say worry less about what people will think and more about how you will feel if you don’t keep dreaming and pursuing what YOU want for your life.

Today, I give you permission to tap back into how your inner child used to dream.

Turn on your faith and go create many more cool and beautiful stories with you as the main character.
