Steps to Reach Your Dreams

Dreams and goals come in all shapes and sizes. Here are some steps to help you reach them.


Write out a list of dreams - Write down everything you would like to do in your life, whether it be something you want to do next week, next month, next year or in the next several years.

List your dreams in order of priority - Go over the list again and put the items in the order you want to accomplish them.

Consider each item on your list carefully - Go over each item and consider the time, effort and cost involved. This is a good time to be more selective.

Go over the list with your parents - Ask for their advise and comments. Be open to their suggestions.

Start working on your dreams - Some dreams require you to start saving money and gathering information. This is the time to read about, or talk to others who have already accomplished the dream. Learn from the success and failures of others.

Be patient. Some dreams will take longer to accomplish than others - There will always be setbacks, that's part of life. Realize that things to take time and don't give up.

Keep dreaming. Dreams can and should be the fuel to help you plan for your future.
