::The World of The Mind::

My Mind is my World,

Your Mind is Your World,

Our Mind is Our World,

Invariably, the larger your mindset the larger your World. We all wish(ed), at some point in our lives, to be rich, famous, a pop-star, a singer, a footballer....the list is endless. We tend to derail from all these aspirations when the reality of life hits us like a brick on the head. Forgetting these dreams and aspirations, to me, is a major cause of the mid-life crises that we all tend to have at some point in our lives. 

The world we live in today is merely a function of the dreams that people (people just like us) had and did not derail from. From the Wright Brothers creation of the Aeroplane, to Karl Benz's design and creation of automobiles as we know them today. Who would have ever thought that you could fly?or even surf??

Ideas conceived in your mind have the potential to blow up into tomorrow's biggest thing. So....just how big is your mind? Are you happy with what you're doing? How far ahead do you think? Who are you? Where are you? Why are you here? What can you do? What makes you tick?Are you the best you?? Where are you going? How built up are you to go where you want to go?

A definite answer to these crucial questions of life usually indicates how far in life you've gone, how big your world is and whether or not you'll live a fulfilled life. I have come to understand my world is only as big as my mind has created it to be. If you can dream it...you can be it!! 

We all have our dreams, what differentiates each person is the ability and courage to follow through. If you're sure about your dream, devise a plan to reach that dream of yours and follow it through with every last muscle in your body!! Who would've ever thought that talk shows would make Oprah Winfrey worth a Billion Dollars today?

You don't always have to follow the statusquo, but in following your dreams you must deal with the reality of risks and possible failures and use this knowledge to be the best You that you can be. Find what makes you happy and DO IT!

I end with the Eternal and always effectual words from the Bible in Proverbs 29:18 - "...Without a Vision, the people perish"
