WORKIN ON A DREAM

I'm working on a dream
Though sometimes it feels so far away
I'm working on a dream
And i know it will be mine someday

Rain pourin' down, i swing my hammer
My hands are rough from working on a dream
I'm working on a dream

Let's go!

I'm working on a dream
Though trouble can feel like it's here to stay
I'm working on a dream
Well our love will chase trouble away

These are the lyrics to Bruce Springsteen's new song "Working on a dream," and I find the lyrics to be very powerful about how we should be living our lives.

The average person works eight plus hours a day, sleeps around six to eight hours, and how we spend the rest of our time determines whether we will fully achieve our dreams, and experience all that the world has to offer. Best selling author Dr Denis Waitley states that the difference between success and mediocrity is what we do in "Primetime (7-11 pm est)," whether you read, write, network, and anything that will let you and others realize the options you have in a world full of abundance, and live it rather than watch it. Dr Waitley has written fifteen books, all of which were written in prime time.

Tension relieving or goal achieving? How do you spend your evenings, weekends, and free time? What are your commitments to your goals?

Instead of watching others live there dreams on television, unhooking from the monotony of our lives, and live through the celebrities and others on television, we should work on setting goals for ourselves, and work on achieving them. It can be so much more enlightening, and inspirational to learn new things, meet new people, and create the life we have always dreamed of for our self, and not get stuck in the same old process of going to work, watching whatever is on TV, and continuing that cycle.

In conclusion, turn off your television, put your remote down and begin to write down where you see yourself in 5 years, 10 years, and so on. Once you have done that, begin to think about what you will need to do in order to get there. Most importantly, take action, and find others who would like to join you on your journey. It is much more fun when you have someone to help you along the way.


In conclusion, GO OUT AND WORK ON YOUR DREAM!!!!

  2. I couldn't agree more...take action and work on their dream. It's when you take action that your dreams becomes a reality.
