Expect the Worst Case Scenario

LisaMurray — Thu, 06 May 2010 07:00:48 +0000

My dinner guests just left and after changing and throwing my hair on top of my head, I had a quick thought I wanted to record. Don’t think when you go for your dreams, there won’t be problems because there will be. But if you think about it, there will be problems in your life whether you go for what you really want or not, right? So might as well go for what you want and expect the worse case scenario and just tell yourself you’ll find a way through it, no matter what it is. Face your monsters!

Never Too Late!

It’s never too late to start a dream, switch a dream, add to a dream, continue a dream, etc. As long as you are breathing, it isn’t too late!! GO FOR IT! You have so much to bring this world with your experiences, don’t silence your voice.

Let Go Dammit!

Sometimes the blocks we face are the Universe’s way of trying to get us to let go so the new can come in! The “death” we face is really an opportunity for the new to be born. Are you resisting change?

“Dream Hoarders” – A Twitter Stream of Consciousness

Dream Hoarders

My tweet stream just now:

The show HOARDERS (on A&E) has gotten me thinking… I wonder if we
Hoard our dreams…like, collect so many that we end up getting
overwhelmed.

Imagine yourself sitting in a house filled with boxes of dreams,
covering the furniture, up to the ceiling. How do you feel?

Can you see yourself weaving in and out of the boxes getting ready for
work? Occasionally knocking one down. Dreams spill out.

People come over and tell you to “just get rid of” all the boxes…
but you cling to them, believing “one day” it’ll all mean something.

But as the days go by, you are starting to question if it ever will
make sense as the # of boxes increase every day.

Yet you are overwhelmed and tired and sick of living in the cracks of
the boxes of unfulfilled dreams.

You will either die in your dream warehouse or you will go crazy and
start breaking open all of the boxes and LIVE!
