Dreams are the voyagers to achievement of GOALS !

On my way to Mumbai from Pune, I was passing by the picturesque landscape of Lonavla. I am certainly not quite glad to say that I never had a chance to have a look into mother nature's bounteous view of this exotic spot in India though I have appreciated places like Great Ocean Drive in Australia or the Highlands of Scotland many a times ! While my eyes were appreciating the beauty of the extensive ranges running through miles and miles , a dreamy patch was outrunning my conscience as the bus was passing by - yeh ... its like a dream !! A breather, as this trip to Mumbai was giving me, I realised that God's been extremely kind to grant me all my dreams ... all my dreams have come true.

This leads me to a memory lane wherein in I get to take a recapitulation of last couple of years in my life starting from the innocent days of my childhood. Dreams as they sound quite fascinating are natural cultivators of seeds to reap success in different realms of life. In our childhood we are absolutely pure and our thought process is uninterrupted and uncontaminated , and thus, we keep on dreaming in multiple dimensions. Dreams keep us live and kicking even when we are sleeping, absolutely oblivious of what is happening in our surroundings - they are the manifestations of our continual thought process as we run through the day. Our innocence leads us to a wide range of dreams starting from a barbie doll, hot wheel sport cars , fancy dresses, Ferraris, BMWs or a shuttle to the space. We often take a flight to the moon or to the Mars, make friends with aliens or to go treking to the distant Himalays - dreams are the enablers. As we grow up, consciously or in subconscious , dreams become the motivators and the enablers towards every goal in our lives. We score star marks in exams because we dream to be a topper, we get high appreciations on a paper read in a seminar because we dream to be a prominent speaker , we earn a Gold medal in university only because we follow our dreams to be a Gold medalist. I realize, dreams are the only enablers for all our achievements.

It really sounds amazing while we realize the power of dreams - but throughout life, the old theory of roses with thorns does peep out every now and then. I guess, when God created the magical wand of dreams, he devised another accompaniment called challenges for "proper chanelization of resources". Haha !! You must be thinking how come this resource stuff comes. Well, dreams are unlimited - we dream of many things as we grow up - fame, wealth, health , mansions, cars and what not. But do you think, it would be quite fair for anybody non deserving achieving anything ! In our hindu mythology Lord Rama had to win over multiple challenges including 14 yrs of exile to rule ove the kingdom of Ayodhya. Yes, thats exactly what I mean to say when I look back, that our dreams are often faced with multiple challenges like made fun of, apparent non achievability, surrounding failures and most significant ones - non encouraging family, friends and acquaintances. We are quite humane and so are our innocent dreams - we get quite impacted at those negative inputs and we become judgemental ........ CORROSION STARTS!! We start compromising our dreams :))) People get quite successful in making us lose faith in ourselves and get diverted from our dreams and goals !!

Here on, lemme share my own case study. Trust me, all what I have achieved till date, are resultant of my dreams .... yes, I have faced all the challenges at different points of time. But look there - I am successful and accomplished !! A research on my course of life for last couple of years will show that I certainly have become judgemental at different points of life - BUT , u almost got me , wait .... I have managed never to lose faith in my dreams and myself ... I am successful in achieving all my goals today because I have had the tenacity to keep continuously acting on my dreams. Dreams are certainly blank without discrete actions ... I have literally lived all my dreams till date ... A workflow diagram if I draw of dreams might take a flow of Dreams - Decision - Action - Updation with a Plan - Do - Check - Act cycle ...

Lonavla is awesome indeed - greeneries everywhere , greying blue mountains , small wooden houses , colorful flours .... a rich view of the dream i m going through as the bus travels in via the roundabouts of the hilly roads ... Again I take a dive into my memory ocean and come to see that I had been quite strong in visualization ... Remember, during the hot summer days when there used to be prolonged power cuts, everybody fretting and sweating and going through sleepless nights , the little me , I used to close my eyes, imagine raindrops falling on the roofs and a cool breeze used to soothe me and put me off to sleep !! .. U mus be thinking "oh yeh, r u joking me " ... But, trust you me mate, I am true !! Visualisation has got its own undercurrent. .. I just realized that I could achieve all my goals with my dreams coming true mostly because I used to visualize all my dreams .. I always used to visualise an apartment I will own by the age of 23 / 24 and the internal decor - I achieved it ... I dreamt of a loving and supporting family and exciting marriage and visualized every moment like my mother in law feeding me, father in law buying me westerns , accessories , husband pampering me like a kid .... wooohooooooo .... its true ... its all true ... I dreamt of driving a car myself and I used to drive in my dreams :)) ... and many more .... Mates, things really seems to be Deja Vu to me !! ...

Well, dreams seem to be like energy - can neither be created nor destroyed - only be transformed from one form to another .... continuous and uninterruptable ..... I have reached Mumbai ...... had been harbouring my dreams and thanks to this bus journey .... I am nurturing my new set of dreams .... visualizing and accomplishing as the HAPPY ME goes forward !!
