Turning Dreams Into Realities Is As Easy As Brushing Our Teeth
Written by Masami Sato on February 16th, 2010
What if making dreams come true is just so easy? Can we let go of our doubts? Is it possible? How can we do it so magically so that it is as easy as brushing our teeth? This excerpt from ONE Book by Masami Sato shows us exactly how to do it step-by-step, preparing you to start walking towards your dreams today.
All of us have dreams. But all of us do not have faith in ourselves so that we can have those dreams and live them in our lifetime. In fact, the secret to have such assuredness is simple. And the reason why we hesitate so much is also straightforward.
We can now start by asking ourselves the first question..
Why don\’t we do the things we want to do?
Our thoughts usually stop us from acting. Sometimes the more we think about something, the less we become committed to achieve what we set out to do in the first place. Because the more we think about it, we tend to come up with more and more reasons for not doing it.
Then is it possible that one can be certain that one will definitely accomplish what one wants to do in his life?
Yes, definitely! For a start, let us look at the power of habits..
If we have to be present at a meeting tomorrow night, we would not be spending too much of time thinking whether we would be able to get there or not. We would not be worried about the possibility of having a car accident and failing to attend the meeting. In fact, when we go to use the toilet, we are unlikely to worry if it might be out of order.
We have so much more sureness about these types of \’normal\’ activities we indulge in every day. They are the habits.
However, we are doubtful about our dreams
Most interestingly, there are plenty of things we are not equally sure about. Particularly the things that we really want to in life – our Dreams!
So what\’s the secret for the certainty that we will achieve our dreams?
First: Simply make it a daily habit!
We can get started by being more confident about our acts meant to meet our desires – the type of dreams that actually fosters our life.
For example, if a person\’s dream is to make his fair share of contributions to the society, and giving is a big yearning in his life, there is no need to doubt the possibility of being able to make that contribution. Al that is necessary is to make it a daily habit.
Second: Make is as important (and equally easy) as brushing one\’s teeth.
Realising dreams can be just like brushing one\’s teeth. It simply doesn\’t feel nice if we do not brush our teeth for pretty long, isn\’t it? We can\’t bother to spend hours considering which toothpaste we should use or wait to clean teeth till there is some need to do so. We feel a little out of sorts if our teeth are not clean. So we clean them. That is all!
Looking at our example, if giving is what we desire most, then we should ask ourselves a few questions: What if giving is truly as important as brushing one\’s teeth? What if it is giving us a comfortable feeling? What if it aids in remaining healthy?
No matter whether we have a lot or very little just now, we can definitely start giving it and sharing it with others today. No matter how seemingly unbelievable it is to fulfil our dreams, we can start proceeding towards them today. We should view it as something crucial, a priority issue that we should practice every day! Then we would feel unhappy if we don\’t do it. Just like brushing our teeth.
and Third: Give first, then we will get back
When we give first before we actually fully have what we really want – what we dream of – we send a very powerful message to ourselves that says, \”there is enough, and more will come\”. It allows us to experience the joy today – the joy of giving.
If you want to be wealthy, be munificent. Then you are sure to be blessed with abundance. If you are intelligent enough to do so, do not hesitate to teach others. Then you will learn more. If you feel like giving, just give the whole of you. And do it without expecting anything in return. Just let go. The act of giving is its own reward. The simple satisfaction of giving.
So do not be hesitant to dole out and share what you have, for it will not prevent you from achieving your purpose, whatever it is. It will only help you to realise your dreams more easily. And your journey through that path would be full of joy.
But surely habits are much smaller in scale, compared to our BIG dreams?
Just manage do it, no need to worry about the \’scale\’.
Because anything can take place in life. We might get started in a pretty simple way. And these simple things might lead us to another act, and form there to another. Our confidence in our simple actions and executing them one by one constantly takes us forward. But if we feel that it is unfeasible to do something now because it is simply unachievable, it is unlikely to ever happen.
The secret of achieving one\’s dreams has always been there, and it will always be there. Those who are winners, who have inspired others, and have known perfect joy, have realized this. They are continuously using it.
Dreams and marvels are not accidents. We make them through our options.
So, are you likely to start moving towards your dreams today?
