Talk is cheap, they say. To make your dreams come true you must act. Unfortunately, this is a hurdle too big for many people to mount. They simply cannot muster the energy needed to take the steps that lead to making their dreams come true. Often, they don't even know what steps need to be taken. And this is so I believe b/c they have the feeling that their dreams are out there ahead of them somewhere. They are under the mistaken impression that it takes an overwhelming will and effort on their part to achieve them.
Personally, I think the process is much more natural than that. The fact is, a dream that is 'out there' has not been embodied as part of one's identity, in which case it will never be realized because it can never be reached 'out there'.
But once we make a dream a part of our identity (in the face of all factual details to the contrary), once we become that better version of ourselves in our own mind's eye, wholly committed to that description of ourselves, then the small steps we need to take flow naturally out of our being. Not to mention Providence (which favors the bold, as has been said) jumps in behind the scenes, and all manner of mysterious support comes our way.
The point is, we don't have to muster up big willfull amounts of energy and push upstream against the world to pursue our dreams. We just have to bring those dreams into our center and follow their unfolding from there, naturally and willingly.
So go ahead, dream your dreams. And then take the one and only step you ever have to willfully take, and that is: start believing that you are the person that that dream wants to manifest through.
