one step at a time... to empowerment

Summer is officially here for me .... but I really can't enjoy it... I am battling pain and more pain while trying to focus on making myself a better person. One of the things that I have learned is how to empower individuals. But sometimes all the support in the world won't help a person, once they have decided that they can't achieve something. Once you allowed the thought of failure to enter your heart and mind, there is no stoping it. So remember that one of the important factors needed in success is to Believe in yourself and to dream. I always tell people to "DREAM",but with your eyes wide opened. Since I was a child one of my coping mechanism was day dreaming... I used to imagine going to far of lands and meeting new people, well at that time they were not people they were characters. But it helped me when I was faced with difficult situations I kept my eye on the prize and focused on what I had dreamed about. My pastor said that a Dream is first born in your unconscious and comes to your sub conscious in the form of a thought. It is then transformed into a desire when it enters your heart, and you must write it down on paper to manifest it into reality. Once you have written it down , post it somewhere where you can see it daily as use it as a reminder of what is ahead. That's is exactly what I have been doing since I was a child, but most important I kept believing in myself and I never allowed the thought of defeat enter me mind.
So keep that in mind.., Believe and Dream, but with your eyes wide open and make them into a reality!
