John C. Maxwell: 5 Reasons Why Dreams Don’t Take Flight

Recognize the things that trap our dreams—and overcome them.

John C. Maxwell

A lot of us never see our dreams come true. Instead of soaring through the clouds, our dreams languish like a broken-down airplane confined to its hangar.

Through life, I have come to identify five common reasons why dreams don’t take flight:

1. We have been discouraged from dreaming by others.
We have to pilot our own dreams; we cannot entrust them to anyone else. People who aren’t following their own dreams resent us pursuing ours. Such people feel inadequate when we succeed, so they try to drag us down.                                                                   

If we listen to external voices, then we allow our dreams to be hijacked. At some point, other people will place limitations on us by doubting our abilities. When surrounded by the turbulence of criticism, we have to grasp the controls tightly to keep from being knocked off course.

2. We fall into the habit of settling for average.
Average is the norm for a reason. Being exceptional demands extra effort, sustained inspiration and uncommon discipline. When we attempt to give flight to our dreams, we have to overcome the weight of opposition. Like gravity, life’s circumstances constantly pull on our dreams, tugging us down to mediocrity.

Most of us don’t pay the price to overcome the opposition to our dreams. We may start out inspired, but through time we fatigue. Although never intending to abandon our dreams, we begin to make concessions here and there. Through time, our lives become mundane, and our dreams slip away.

3. We are hindered by past disappointments and hurts.
In the movie Top Gun, Tom Cruise plays Maverick, a young, talented and cocky aviator who dreams of being the premier pilot in the U.S. Navy. In the film’s opening scenes, Maverick showcases his flying ability but also displays a knack for pushing the envelope with regards to safety. Midway through the movie, Maverick’s characteristic aggression spells disaster. His plane crashes, killing his best friend and co-pilot.

Although cleared of wrongdoing, the painful memory of the accident haunts Maverick. He quits taking risks and loses his edge. Struggling to regain his poise, he considers giving up on his dream. The incident nearly wrecks Maverick’s career, but he eventually reaches within to find the strength to return to the sky.

Like Maverick, many of us live with the memory of failure embedded in our psyche. Perhaps a business we started went broke, or we were fired from a position of leadership. Disappointment is the gap that exists between expectation and reality, and all of us have encountered that gap. Failure is a necessary and natural part of life, but if we’re going to attain our dreams, then, like Maverick, we have to summon the courage to deal with past hurts.

4. We lack the confidence needed to pursue our dreams.
Dreams are fragile. They will be buffeted by assaults from all sides. As such, they must be supplied with the extra strength of self-confidence.

In Amelia Earhart’s day, women were not supposed to fly airplanes. If she had lacked self-assurance, she never would have even attempted to be a pilot. Instead, Earhart confidently chased after her dream, and she was rewarded with both fulfillment and fame.

5. We are missing the imagination to dream.
For thousands of years, mankind traveled along the ground: by foot, by horse-and-buggy, by locomotive and eventually by automobile. Thanks to the dreams of Orville and Wilbur Wright, we now hop across oceans in a matter of hours. The imaginative brothers overcame ridicule and doubt to pioneer human flight, and the world has never been the same.                                                                                                                                              

Many of us play small because we do not allow ourselves to dream. We trap ourselves in reality and never dare to go beyond what we can see with our eyes. Imagination lifts us beyond average by giving us a vision of life that surpasses what we are experiencing currently. Dreams infuse our spirit with energy and spur us on to greatness.

Never stop dreaming!

Handling Financial Problems For A Happy Life

These days, having a sound financial status has become an
indispensable aspect of life. In other words, with societal status, luxury,
comfort and even happiness sometimes directly proportional to the financial
status, people are extremely focused at building their financial status.
However, this being the fact the common concern these days faced by many is
despite planning the savings are low, the hike in salary is less and the money
earned and the expenses are nowhere in a balanced. In addition, we always have
the tendency to find fault with external factors like lack of salary hike,
sudden arrival of guests and expense, etc. But all this is just trying to cover
and avoiding the actual reasons of financial problem.

 

However, this disturbance or inconsistency
between earning and expense can lead to financial problems which in turn have
the ability to affect your mind. When an individual faces financial problems,
the first impact of the problem is on his mind, leading to stress and anxiety.
Therefore, here are some the factor that actually lead to financial problems
and tips on how to overcome financial problems:

• Lack of self confidence:
  These days, there is a growing tendency of looking at things from the short
  term perspective and complete avoidance of long term means. That is the reason
  that if there is even a small hike in the income, we tend to immediately spend
  it off than saving it. Therefore, while managing your finances look at it from
  the long term perspective
• Unnecessary expenses:
  These days, the motto of purchase is not completely need based. Many a times
  people buy stuff just because it is new in the market or just because their
  close friend or relative has purchased. In this madness one is not paying
  attention whether the product fits into our budget, whether is it useful etc is
  missing. Therefore, before doing any big purchase ask yourself, "Do I need
  this??? Why do I need this??? Is it a must to buy it now??? If the answers are
  satisfactory, then go ahead and spend money
• Proper planning:
  What you earn will not change overnight so plan your monies to ensure you don't
  fall short of money. Stick to the planned budget unless and until it's an
  emergency to deviate from the budget.

Thus, with the above mentioned simple tips on how
to overcome financial problems, you are definitely clear that planning
money is the key. However, despite all the planning, if you come across
financial problems and are stressed out, it is very necessary to stay mentally
and physically healthy to face them. Therefore, giving due attention to one's
health is very important. Based on this concept of overall health, Trivedi
