Done with uni for this year, Christmas passed and my studyroom -where I spend most of my time- is clean and in order.
Now's time to decide how to spend wisely this free time I have in my hands. It's time to pamper myself, to do what I want to do and to set my goals list for this 2013.
If there is something I'm good at is at being stubborn and not letting anything break my will. When I set up my mind for something I go for it. So since 2013 is just around the corner I would like to talk about wishes, dreams and goals.
Let's start off explaning what is a 'wish', what is a 'dream' and what is a 'goal'.
A wish is a single thought that results from inspiration obtained from your surroundings. It can be either looking at someone doing something cool -and so you would like to try it too- or looking at a pair of shoes, shoes so pretty you want them, you want them so bad that you desire them.
A wish can be translated as a desire.
Now, when you dream you usually let yourself go in mind and body to wander through anything that comes to mind. It may be a concrete thought or vision you have of yourself doing something or being someone that's different from your usual self.
Even though inside your mind you can obtain a concrete vision of yourself or your dream (for example, visualizing yourself on a stage being the vocalist of an epic rock band), usually the process of materializing that vision in your mind is abstract -it comes out of inspiration, it's based on wishes-.
But wishes -and so desire- makes room in your body as a hot sensation in your heart and as visions that show you an outcome. It doesn't show you when, where and how you can develop yourself or which steps you have to take in order to achieve that outcome.
When we get to goals, we have that they are set up points in your life. It's like sticking a post-it on a page of your book during exams week, indicating the page in which you pasted it on is important. When you study that page and pass the exam you can remove the post-it and paste more on several other pages. You prepare for other exams, other tests and tasks and you move forward to other stages of life.
Remember that setting up goals involve planning your personal war strategy. How are you going to attack and move forward on the unknown territory. How are you going to conquer it.
You may ask:
So why is it that most of the people speaks of them as the same?
Well, it's because they're related. Everything starts with wishing. Wishes make up dreams and when you dream a lot, your desire grows bigger and things such as ambition, accomplishment and many other can come up and sum too. Desire grows so strong you may start thinking that you want that dream to actually materialize in your life. When you want something for yourself you start seeking for the tools and the paths to take. You set the dream to a goal.
Backwards, when you reach to the process of setting up goals in your life and accomplishing them, it's possible that halfway through you learn about much more things and then you start to dream and wish them.
Goals attract more goals.
Never underestimate the power of wishing, and don't pay attention to those who tell you that spending time on dreaming is worthless. Wishes can transform into dreams, dreams into goals and goals into reality.
Growing up, expanding your vision, enhancing your abilities and talents can also make you feel powered up to take up on one, two, three or more goals at the same time. So it's important to read more, learn more, practice more. We were born as dynamic beings capable of carrying a thought and developing it further through will. Wishes, dreams and goals are important because they put us on the run of revolution and evolution.
With one feet on the clouds to dream and one on Earth to make it come true,
はる~
