Never Surrender
Your Dream
Copyright

Do you have
a dream today?
Can you see yourself in one
year, three years, ten years?
Can you describe the house
you will live in? The clothes
you will wear? The routine
you will follow every day?
Far from some pie-in-the-sky
hype, dreams are the real
currency of the Internet.
Many reading these words
dream of quitting their job
and working at home. Some
dream of having a home of
their own. Some don't dream
any more.
No matter where you stand
today please consider the
following.
My friend, your dream is your
map. Without it how will you
know where you are going?
Recent events have driven
home the fact that life is
short indeed. Too short to
spend it working at a job we
don't love.
Listen to these words by
Brian Tracy ...
All successful men and women
are big dreamers. They
imagine what their future
could be, ideal in every
respect, and then they work
every day toward their
distant vision, that goal or
purpose. - Brian Tracy
If you were my brother or
sister, this is what I would
say to you.
You must have a dream to make
a dream come true. And you
must never surrender your
dream.
If you are like most people
you will spend more time
working than doing any other
activity. Yet, many today
don't like their work.
So the question becomes this.
Can you do what you love for
a living? Can you find the
joy that comes when you WANT
to go to work?
To that question I answer YES
... you can. I can say that
because it's happening to me.
I don't usually write
something this personal, but
please allow me to share with
you the five steps I used to
make my dream come true on
the Internet. And let me
encourage you to take these
steps in your life today.
Time is fleeting. Begin now.
1. Realize that the Internet
really has changed things.
Jobs exist today that didn't
five years ago. The thing
that got me started on the
Internet, that helped me
create my dream, was a book
called 'Finding Your Perfect
Work'.
That book helped me realize
that I could create *any*
situation I wanted on the
Internet. The Net is still
new territory. To a great
degree, if you can dream it
you can do it.
2. Know yourself. What do you
REALLY want? Spend some time
with yourself and 'wave the
magic wand'. If you could do
anything, if money wasn't a
factor, what would you do?
Keep asking until you find an
answer.
3. Research your answers. You
will be shocked to discover
the career possibilities
online. Pick your favorite
search engine, start a
bookmark folder just for
this, and find everything you
can about your passion.
4. Ask for help. Once you
have zeroed in on what you
want, find someone who excels
at it and learn at their
feet. Be prepared to get
turned down a few times from
people who are too busy or
uncaring. But never quit. You
*will* find the mentor you
need if you try.
5. Be willing to start small.
You may only be able to
commit a few hours at night
to your new field because you
have to feed the family.
That's OK. Time is your ally.
And time will prove if your
idea will work.
Careers like being a virtual
assistant, a net researcher,
or doing graphic art for
e-Books exist today because
of innovative thinkers who
found their passion. Find
your passion and you will
create your opportunity.
Don't stop until you find (or
create) that type of work
that both makes you happy and
pays the bills. Who knows,
YOU might be the innovator
who creates the next online
industry.
Winston Churchill said 'The
nose of the bulldog has been
slanted backward so it can
breathe without letting go.'
When it comes to our dreams
we need to be like the
bulldog. We must never
surrender our dreams.
