Making dreams a reality

I remembered a quotation from an early Greek literature that reads: "Hold on to your dreams, for if dreams should die, life is broken-winged bird that cannot fly." Indeed, the mind is capable of dreaming very profound things. If someone had a dream and holds fast to it, his mind will find a way to bring it to reality. The ability to dream is a beautiful human faculty which often leads to amazing results. Once it becomes focused on something, it can break limits and surpass expectations leaving no stone unturned to make dreams into reality.



We achieve because we dream. There are many successful people in this world who dreamt big and whose dreams changed their lives and also inspired others. Take for example, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, founders of Apple Computers and Microsoft respectively. Besides bringing fortune to themselves, they have also revolutionised technology, brought great convenience and progress to mankind.



But to dream and make those dreams into reality are not just by a wink of an eye. These people are of great character - strong and determined - which enabled them to face challenges of any sort. Like any human being, they failed many times. But, they didn't give up and instead they continued to dream and work hard to make their dreams come to reality. We should take them as inspirations in our every endeavour.



Though it is human nature to cry out in anguish at all life's failures, we will always see ourselves in a much better light if we take a look around us and see that the most successful people in the world are those who have learnt to dream and struggled to fulfil their dreams, often against odds.
