I am about to reveal an incredible secret about your dreams that is so unexpected, so astounding that I am confident you have never heard about it before. Read it, absorb it, use it, and soon you’ll be on the road to a new kind of fortune few will ever know.
Make your deepest wish come true
Meet each morning with bright anticipation
Step into the refreshing flow of real life
Even though this revelation may seem strange and unsettling at first, just keep reading because you will soon discover its amazing power. It can shake up your life — for the better! — forever. Here it is:
Your present dreams about where to find happiness and fulfillment are the very things that stand between you and the real happiness and fulfillment you seek.
They act as a barrier to a special creative power that can pour itself into you right now and make the deepest wishes of your heart come true.
Now keep going, because this next point is more shocking still:
The dreams you presently have are not even yours!
They are leftover mind patterns created by encounters you’ve had in the past with parents, teachers, movies, books, and magazines. They are not alive. They are recycled. And that’s why, even if you manage to fulfill them, they don’t fully satisfy.
We all instinctively know that this is true. Have you ever realized one of your dreams only to find yourself with an unexpected feeling of emptiness? Or, maybe you ran across the “finish line” of some newly achieved goal, only to hear the “starting gun” go off again? Of course you have — we all have. But, haven’t you ever wondered…
“Why do most dreams end in the same way? What vital message am I missing?” Here’s the secret answer:
There is a completely different kind of “dream” that lives in the deepest part of all of us, one whose quiet longing, once answered, has the power to completely change your life. And once we finally “get it”… once we realize that the freedom and fulfillment our heart longs for is something we want now — not later — we have completed the first leg of the “hero’s journey.” We are ready to make our real dream a reality!
We have left behind us the ever-retreating world of “a contentment to come” and stand prepared to enter into conscious relationship with success itself: Life’s endless stream of new creative energy.
It’s a fact that Life’s creativity is endlessly refreshed. Each and every creature is a unique expression of an intelligence that never ceases to renew itself. Look closely at a stand of white Aspen trees, or the small group of Gold Finches flitting about in their branches; it’s clear that no two creations are exactly alike. And it’s for a similar reason that we love hearing the rain fall, or watching the waters of a rushing river: second to second their ceaseless newness stirs within us the same feeling.
However, when we look at the lives of most human beings, we don’t find this same sense of newness refreshing itself. Instead, we see weary people being dragged down by mind-numbing routine, old patterns, and recurring problems.
Why? What blocks us from knowing, directly, this vital newness that’s all around us, but that sleeps within us? How can we share in these vibrant forces that are the foundation of creativity itself? What must we do to stop dreaming our life away, and begin really living it?
