Turning Dreams Into Realities Is As Easy As Brushing Our Teeth
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.
Let’s begin with the first question that we can ask ourselves
Why don’t we do everything we always wanted to do?
Often, our thinking stops our actions. Often the more we think about it, the less we usually are committed to achieve what we originally wanted to do. Often the more we think about something, we come up with a greater number of reasons for not doing it.
Then is it possible to be certain that we will definitely accomplish what we want to do in our 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 certainty about these types of ’normal’ actions we take every day. They’re habits.
However, we are doubtful about our dreams
The interesting part is that there are several things that we are not very sure about. These are the things that we really want to do in our lives – our Dreams!
So, what is the secret for the assurance that we will realize our dreams?
First: Decide to make it a daily habit!
We can start being more certain about our actions to meet our desires-the type of desires that really nourishes 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 it as important (and as easy) as brushing our teeth
Making a dream come true can be just like cleaning the teeth. It gives a very uncomfortable feeling if teeth are not brushed for a long time, isn’t it? Nobody spends hours thinking which brand of toothpaste to use or postpone brushing till there is some specific need to show clean teeth. We feel ill at ease with teeth that are not clean. So we just clean them. It is as simple as that.
Coming back to our example, if giving is so important to us, we have to ask ourselves certain questions: What if giving is in fact of as much importance as brushing our teeth? What if it is making us feel good? What if it is helping to maintain our health?
Irrespective of how much or how little we own right now, we surely can start offering it and sharing it today. As such, no matter how improbable the realisation of dreams might appear, we can start walking towards them today. We can definitely do, if we see it as a crucial issue, a top priority that we should stick to every day! Then we will be uncomfortable if we do not do it. Just like cleaning our teeth.
and Third: Give first, then we will get
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 are not habits very small, when compared to our BIG dreams?
Just do it, don’t worry about the ’scale’
Because anything is possible in life. We might start things in a small way. And these small things will always take us to another action, and another. Having certainty in our small actions and executing them one by one always takes us forward. But if we thought it was ’impossible’ to do something now because it just seemed ’too big’, it will never happen.
The secret to achieve your dreams has always been here, and will always be here. The people who create miracles, inspirations, and the real sense of joy, already know this. They are always using it.
Dreams and miracles are not accidents. We create them through our choices.
So, are you likely to start moving towards your dreams today?
