The Irony Of Your Dreams Is That You Have To Face Your Nightmares To Bring Them To Life
•
Your dreams don’t usually ask you to become someone else.
•
They ask you to become the person who is capable of creating them.
•
And that’s where the irony begins.
•
Because somewhere between where you are today and the future you say you want, you will have to confront the things you’ve been avoiding:
•
The fear of failing.
The fear of being judged.
The fear of outgrowing people.
The fear of being seen.
The fear of making the wrong decision.
The stories you’ve been telling yourself about what you can—and cannot—do.
•
Your nightmares aren’t necessarily signs that you’re on the wrong path.
•
Sometimes, they are the very barriers standing between your current identity and your future self.
•
You don’t overcome them by waiting until you feel fearless.
•
You overcome them by deciding that your future is more important than your fear.
•
Every time you face something you once avoided, you expand what you believe is possible.
•
And eventually, you look back and realise:
•
The thing you were most afraid to face was never the end of your story.
•
It was the doorway to the person you needed to become.
•
What are you avoiding right now that your future is asking you to face?
