Inspirational Words: Dare to Dream

‘Inspirational words’ is the space where you can come for those times on your personal development journey when you feel lost, lacking focus, or triggered, or your ‘self-talk’ leaves you feeling unworthy, when you need to hear something wise, uplifting, and inspirational as a reminder that you are a miracle and deserve to be the best for yourself and those you love.

This is also a space for those times when you aspire to something greater, a dream or goal and vision of your future that is different from your reality today. Use these words to empower yourself to overcome the challenges and make the changes to realise your dreams.

I encourage you to read the words, reflect on them and journal the emotions that bubble to the surface for you. Too often, we let the negativity fester, bringing us down. It’s okay to have what I call a ‘pity party’; just give it a time frame, one hour, one day, or one week, and use that time to explore and process what you need to. Seek out support and professional help if you need it.

Dare to Dream

By Julie Anne Ford

Let nothing hold you back from

exploring your wildest fantasies,

wishes, and aspirations.

Don't be afraid to dream big

And to follow your dreams

wherever they may lead you.

Open your eyes to their beauty;

open your mind to their magic;

open your heart to their possibilities.

Dare to dream.

Whether they are in colour

or in black and white,

whether they are big or small,

easily attainable

or almost impossible

look to your dreams,

and make them become reality.

Wishes and hopes are nothing

until you take the first step

towards making them something!

Dare to dream,

because only by dreaming

will you ever discover

who you are, what you want

and what you can do.

Don't be afraid to take risks,

to become involved,

to make a commitment.

Do whatever it takes to make

your dreams come true.

Always believe in miracles,

and always believe in you!

I am a dreamer, and have always been told to ‘get my head out of the clouds’. I like being there! I dream big, take action and follow up to achieve the dreams. I like living like that. Share your reflections in the comments. I would love to hear how the words resonate with you.
