Growing up in poverty in the 1950's & 60's, I faced more dream squashers in my life than people who believed in possibilities. I was bullied and ridiculed for my big dreams by my own family. It was hard, but I persisted in believing. Some of my dreams were pretty outrageous, too, like I dreamed of going to OZ or being an astronaut. Then, when President Kennedy and later Dr. Martin Luther King were assassinated, I was led to believe it was because they were dreamers. I was too young and gullible to know any better, but it scared me. Later, after many years of hard work, I became a competitive gymnast, but I didn't have the courage to believe I could compete in the Olympics. No one in my family dared dream that big either. It wasn't until I left home and joined the military that I resumed dreaming big. I got to meet Stevie Nicks when she was still unknown, who ignited my creativity with a few encouraging words. After that, I started reading inspirational books (long list) and following positive thought leaders. I still didn't have the kind of guidance I needed to break out of the mold my parents made for me. That took another ten years of mindset readjustments, but luckily, I made extremely good progress developing and chasing my dreams after 1980. My quantum leap came about as we approached the year 2000 - when I dared to push the outer limits of my dreams and began really believing in myself and my potential. Long story short, I'm in my late 60's now and I've had a very exciting and adventurous last 25+ years. I feel a little resentful when I think how much further I could have gotten if I had had a good mentor or positive guidance in some form or other earlier in life. I tell you my story (my WHY) so you would understand my VISION ( my WHAT) which is to live in a world where people are encouraged and empowered to follow their dreams. HOW I do that is by following through on individual dreams and goals. If you don't know what to your vision or mission is, but feel called to work on it, reach out and let's chat. I'm looking to mentor a new handful of people to dream bigger. This isn't mere goal setting. This is moonshot development!! Need help?

If energy is precious to you, then why waste it on negative thoughts? 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞'𝐬 𝐚 -𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞- 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐭/𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝.

It's a strange phenomenon that when you accomplish something you expected to accomplish, you may only feel a mild sense of satisfaction. But, when you accomplish you only dreamed you could, it was always a moonshot, then you feel an exuberance or euphoria that you couldn't have imagined. Wild dreams have that power!

Thinking a thought takes a bit of energy. Feeling it takes a little more. Did you know that feeling fear or feeling excitement uses the same kind of thought, and the same kind of energy? It's all a matter of focus. 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞'𝐬 𝐚 -𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞- 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐭/𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝.
