What are you dreaming of right now?
Is there a hope or wish you have that you could turn into a goal?
I once read a saying that a goal is just a dream with a deadline. I love that! It made me realise that goals and goal setting can be just as inspirational as having a ‘dream’, and in fact, even more so, as turning a dream into a goal makes it real and achievable.
If you have a big dream that you really want to see come to life, there are obviously many steps you likely need to take to make that happen. While I’m no goal setting expert, I do have one tip to make that dream start coming to life – and it’s quite a simple one.
Get a pen and sheet of paper and write that dream with a deadline down. Putting pen to paper will make it seem all that more real. Stick it on your vision board. Fridge. Mirror. Journal. It’s then yours in writing to breathe life into every day you can.
Dream On Beautiful You.

I love that saying about goals being dreams with deadlines; wow, what a great way of looking at it!
As always, I love your tip. It is simple and quick to write something down, but it has long-lasting benefits if you work hard.
I think right now my dreams are to continue focusing on being healthy and being a good, accomplished, hardworking writer. Easier said than done, but I'll definitely start writing some concrete goals around this and work at it.
Thanks!
Julie, I believe everything once start out as a dream! writing dreams (goals, wishes, visions) is truly the first step to take them from your heart out into the world.
Thanks fellow dreamers – Margarita and Elizabeth. Dream on!
I like that definition of a goal
that made me smile.
Right now… I know that things are tough because I won't really let myself dream at all… a sign that things are off base… my hope comes from dreaming (because the rest of my life in "reality" sucks)…. sometimes I think we need to find and learn how to dream all over again! But that's okay, I think we can do that… and then turn them into cool goals! YAY!
