How to Realize Your Dreams Even If You Don’t Know How to Get There

                                              

You can't go after your dreams if you don't know what steps to take.

Or can you?

Yes, you can.

You'd be amazed at just how easily you can begin to make your dreams a reality, if you are determined enough to start.

It won't happen overnight. And you do have to put in the work, but it's well worth it.

Along the way, you'll have to face your inner and outer demons, just like Frodo on his way to destroying the one ring.

But that's okay. It's part of the journey.

Many people don't want to go through the struggle, so they settle for what they have. But what they don't realize is that settling will turn into struggle as time goes by.

On the other hand, if you go after your dreams and blast through the obstacles, life will only get better and better.

With that said, let’s look at how you can realize your dreams, shall we?

1. Clarity

The first thing you have to do is become clear about exactly what you want from life.

Most people go around complaining that life isn't giving them what they want, and when you ask them what it is they want, they give you a vague answer, or stare blankly into space.

In order for you to get what you want, you first have to know what you want. It may sound simple, but many people still don’t do it.

If you truly don't know what you want, start trying different things. Start experimenting and playing with life.

2. Dream

Don't be afraid to dream big. You've probably been told that you can't go after your dreams and you can't live the life that you desire.

This advice usually comes from people that have given up. And it couldn't be further from the truth.

Those are not the people you should listen to. Dream big and go after your dreams. You can do it, but you have to make the decision to start.

3. Trust Your Intuition

Once you have become clear about what you want, it's time to start trusting your intuition. This may mean following your gut, trusting your heart, or whatever terminology you feel comfortable using.

Once you become clear on what you want, you'll start to notice interesting coincidences happening in your life.

You may bump into an old friend, or a piece of information that takes you down a path that naturally leads to exactly what you want.

The universe works in mysterious ways.

4. Relax

You may not always see exactly where you're going, and that's okay.

Most people want to know exactly what steps to take in order to make their dreams come true, but my experience shows that the universe doesn't work that way.

So just relax, take a deep breath, and enjoy the ride that we call life. It's a mystery and it's a lot of fun if you allow it to be.

5. Observe

As I mentioned above, when you have a clear vision of what kind of life you want to live and what you want to do in life, new possibilities will open up.

We really have no clue about how the universe works, but we do know that most successful and happy people in the world today have a clear vision of what they want, and they go after it with relentless determination.

Step into the uncertainty and enjoy.

6. Let Go of Obstacles

Most of the obstacles on your path are created by you. They may be worries, fears, or different habitual thought patterns you've picked up along the way.

You can always come up with excuses, but you have to ask yourself how badly you want a life full of purpose, passion, and fulfillment.

Everyone wants that life, some more than others, and it is just a question of taking action and letting the excuses pass you by as you speed forward.

7. Have Fun

Last, but not least is to have fun. When you go after your dreams, make the process enjoyable.

Some people make it a struggle and think they have to work insanely hard to get where they want to be.

There are easier ways to get there.

Besides, life isn't about reaching a goal, even if it is your dream life, life is about enjoying the present moment and having fun, at least that’s what I choose to believe.

How to realize your dreams

How can you realize your dreams?
Sounds like an ambitious question and the best way to answer it is to read about true stories of people who realized their dreams.

Few years back i had the dream of driving a car that is worth 125,000 Dollars. The car wasn't that expensive because of its real price but because customs here in Egypt force you to pay triple the price of a car especially if it was a convertible car.

For years i kept the car's picture on my desktop so that i remind myself of that dream. Few days ago and before the age of thirty i bought the car here in Egypt and i realized the dream!

In this article i will tell you how to realize your dreams as well.

"To realize your dreams you must have solid faith in yourself"

Before i bought that car, Audi TT convertible, i believed that one day i will buy it. I didn't have any idea how i will get such an amount of money but i was sure i am going to do it one day.

Now the question you might be asking yourself is, how can a person have such a solid faith in himself?
And the answer is:
It's all about believing that you are responsible for the outcome of everything that happens in your life.

There are two types of people in this world, those who blame themselves for their misfortunes and those who blame everything else in order to escape from the responsibility. (learn more about those two types here

A reader once sent me a message telling that talking is easy and that i am a millionaire already and that's why its easy for me to talk with such a positive tone. I replied with these simple words:

"When i was 23 years old i had no savings and i wrote on a paper that i will become a millionaire then by the time i was 28 i was a millionaire already"

If i didn't take the responsibility and assumed that something else is responsible for my misfortunes such as luck, genes, economy, Donald duck or even aliens then i wouldn't have been where i am now.

If you want to realize your dreams then you must be brave enough to stop escaping from your fears and to start taking responsibility of your life.

To realize your dreams you must be crazy

"Farouk, Making money online, are you serious? You are crazy"
"Farouk, quitting your job was such a stupid move"
"Make money online? hahahaha"

Those were just a tiny sample of the hundreds of comments that i got from most people when i told them that i intend to make money online. Whenever you find everyone telling you that you are crazy then know that you are moving in the right direction simply because people call others crazy when they find them moving in a direction that they didn't dare to move towards.

People will call you crazy when you start doing the things they always feared to do. Don't get me wrong and think that i am asking you to quit your job. That might not be the correct choice in your case but what you must do is to move out of your comfort zone and to become crazy in the eyes of your friends.

If you are serious about realizing your dreams then you must be crazy enough to move against everybody.

Finally to realize your dreams you must be a boxer

No no, not the boxer that came to your mind!
i meant the guy who practices boxing.

Muhammad Ali, the most famous boxer in the world, once said: its not about falling but its about about getting hit very hard and standing up again.

The same goes for success in any other life area, it not about falling but its all about standing up again.

I started more than 9 businesses that failed for different reasons. With each failure i learned a new lesson until one day i managed to grasp all the knowledge needed to start a successful business.

To realize your dreams you must learn how to stand up again whenever you fall.
