Climbing the Mountain To Reach Your Dreams (Chapter 8 - Act Like a Success, Think Like a Success)

"The steps of a good man [or woman] are ordered by the Lord.”

I interpreted this Scripture in my life to mean that walking into my destiny is a step-by-step process. I truly believe that God provides all of us with the right steps to get to the right place at the right time.

We all have dreams; some are willing to take a leap of faith to go after those dreams while others sit and wait on the sidelines.

Goals are the biggest difference between those who go after and reach their dreams and those who never do.  
Without goals, your dreams will remain a someday phenomenon instead of today’s reality.  Goals give you something specific to work towards and help you stay focused on your journey.

Setup and use your goals as your personal climb to the top of the mountain.   The long term,  overall vision of what you want to become may be overwhelming, but breaking down your goals into smaller, achievable stepping stones, can help you better manage the journey.  Your goals can give you realistic, measurable, and specific targets. They are necessary benchmarks that give you the energy, confidence, and assurance to keep moving in the right direction.

Goals are dreams with your feet on the ground.
Know what your dream is.  Have a vision for how you want to live your life.   Then, create goals for each dream and vision that you have that will help you navigate your way to the life you dreamed of.
