Lie 7: You Need To Know The Right People To Achieve Your Dream

March 10, 2013 2 Comments


Let me be the first to say it… “privilege can be a real bitch,” but not in the way you might expect.

Often a dreamer may feel discounted because of his or her lack of privilege; if you don’t have a trust fund or you don’t come from a connected family, the mountain before you can almost seem insurmountable.

But privilege without responsibility is a dangerous thing; it creates a lazy mind and a fat uncensored body. Privilege can be a curse and not a blessing.

Whatever your circumstances, you must use what you have been given to shape your forward journey. Your past is your own, you can use it in whatever way you want.

Connection is an extremely overrated commodity when you compare it to the power of your creativity AND your ability to tell your own story in whichever way you wish.

Lie 6: It’s Impossible for Someone Of My Race, Age or Gender

March 9, 2013 2 Comments


In every culture there is prevailing demographic, that appears to have a huge advantage because they set the rules. I don’t discount the fact that the odds can be seriously stacked against the minorities.

But never use your race, your sex, your class or your age as an excuse for not dreaming; don’t believe the “impossible” lie.

After-all, if the game isn’t fair then the people in your world, all the more so desperately need your dream; your purpose has never been so clearly defined or more important.

Stamp your foot indignantly at the injustice of it all AND dream anyway. Isn’t what you are dreaming worth fighting for?

Be the first of your kind, the leader of your generation, a pioneer in your world.

Lie 5: If You Just Keep Going Eventually It Will Happen

March 8, 2013 2 Comments


The ability to persist in every circumstance is not always a good thing.

What am I saying?

If we are failing repeatedly then we need to change things up, we need to do something different if we want to achieve a different result.

If you are hardwired to persist then doing the same thing again and again can be a comfortable thing. Persistence can be tied to both stubbornness and fear.

In actual fact… if you just keep on doing the same thing eventually it will never happen.

Instead turn your persistence towards a flexible mindset, committing yourself to always asking questions and to investigating problems from different angles.

Lie 4: It Is Impossible To Make Money From Your Dream

March 7, 2013 4 Comments


Money kills dreams, both the lack of it and the desire for it.

Many dreamers remain tied to a 9 to 5 job that they “hate” because they are convinced that they will never make money from their dreams. Their love of comfort prevents them from both finding and living out their purpose.

Other dreamers lie crippled in poverty, lamenting their lack of riches blaming their failure to succeed on their bank balance… if only they came from money?

Surely, there is a better way; certainly there must be a way for us to make money as we dream.

A dream that does not produce an income must be re-imagined for it already has no inherent value in the world “for which” it exists.

Your dream is a serious business, it’s not an ethereal thing, you must find a way to monetize it, it must work for you as you pursue it.

Lie 3: There Is Only “1″ Dream For You In Life

March 6, 2013 0 Comments


Do you ever feel like there is only one dream, only one purpose for your life?

Insanity.

Especially so, if have the wrong dream to begin with; or if life intervenes and that dream or purpose becomes physically impossible.

Remember, in its essence your dream is not tied to a career, a particular idea or an achievement; your dream is tied to your being, to the essence of who you are, to contributing and adding value in your own significantly unique way.

Hanging on to the one dream can be a dream killer; life shifts and so must we if we long to stay swimming in the stream of our purpose.

Don’t become overly committed to the first screenplay you wrote, or innovative idea you had 3 years ago. Your undying commitment should be to your talent and your creativity NOT to the works that it produces.

Lie 2: You Must Be Single Mindedly Focused.

March 5, 2013 2 Comments


Distraction is another form of deception designed to prevent you from living out your dreams. This is a friend (enemy) I personally know only too well.

Surprisingly, the greatest form of distraction is obsession.

What?

That’s right, there is a wicked lie that insists that we must be single mindedly focussed and determined if we are to ever succeed with our dreams.

This is a wicked lie that often drives a dreamer to isolation, loneliness and divorce. Self-absorption closes our minds to the influences of others, it inhibits the sacred power of collaboration and it destroys everything that it touches.

Lie 1: There Is No Purpose Or Dream For You

March 4, 2013 6 Comments


The biggest deceptions nearly always involve a slight of hand that insists that there really is no deception at all.

The power of a lie only exists when it is accepted as truth.

And, so a voice whispers almost imperceptibly… ‘you have no purpose, you have no special dream.”

Or perhaps it takes another form, perhaps instead it simply says, ‘you are ordinary and that special dreams are for other more talented people.”

These are lies, filthy lies designed to keep you in a place of stasis. How do you escape the lie and begin to journey towards your dream?

You must do something different, you must verbally and openly refute the lie, opening your mind to the truth and acknowledging that although you do not yet know it… there is indeed a special role and purpose for your life.
