5 Keys to Developing the Courage to Go for Your Dreams

How do you develop the courage to go for your dreams? That’s the million dollar question, isn’t it?

Because if your don’t learn how it will cost you the millions you could have earned. It will also cost you the realization of your passion and your purpose.

It’s a lot of fun to plan the vision for your life and the action steps you’re going to take to live your passion. It’s another thing to keep moving forward as it all starts to become real. That’s where the fear sets in and you start to wonder what ever made you think you could do this.

Key #1: Move Past Your Fear

I’m sorry to tell you I haven’t found a magic pill for this. It has to come from inside you. Nobody can do it for you. And it all starts with your vision.

Fear not! There’s a system for creating a vision for your life, just as there is a system for anything else you want to be successful at.  It’s easy. I’ve been teaching it to people from all walks of life for the last 30 years. The question is whether you will take the time to learn it.

Discovering your purpose was only your first step. To walk through your fear, you have to be clear on where you area going.

Key #2: Create a Strong Vision

You need a vision that is so strong you can’t possibly walk away from it.

Once you have a strong compelling vision that’s based on your passion and purpose in life, how could you let anything stop you?

When you see yourself in the life you will have upon the realization of your vision, how could you stop?

You can’t stop; it’s impossible! You can drag out the process, but as hard as you try, you can’t stop!

Key #3: Stop Projecting Future Catastrophe

Are you aware that 95% of the things you spend your time worrying about never happen? So, isn’t worrying about the outcome of things you haven’t done yet ridiculous?

Don’t let your fears delay the inevitable.

And it is inevitable. With the vision you’ve created, you’ve tapped into the Universal Laws and everything you need is being drawn to you as we speak.

You can run and you can hide, but eventually everything you visualize will come to you if you take all the necessary steps. So why fight it? This is what you want more than anything, isn’t it?

Key #4: Get Out of the Way

When did you want something so bad you could taste it and then decide you were too scared to go for it? How did that work out?

The only courage you need to go for your dreams is the courage to get out of your own way. Just take a deep breath and move aside.

So, the next time you feel like your courage to go for your dreams has abandoned you, just tell yourself there is no reason to fight it. Falling into your fears can postpone your success for a while, but you can’t stop it, so why even try?

Get back on that horse and ride it to the finish line.

Key #5: You’ve Always Had It, Dorothy

The good news is you don’t have to worry about how you’ll develop the courage to go for your dreams. You already have it.

When you feel like it’s too big for you to go on, look at how far you’ve come already.

The bottom line regarding courage come from the Wizard of Oz.

Towards the end of the movie, Dorothy thinks she’ll never go home. Just then Glinda the good witch shows up. She tells her she’s always had the power to go back to Kansas but she didn’t tell her before because Dorothy wouldn’t have believed her. She had to learn it for herself.

But to find out how to unleash the power she had inside, she needed to ask for help. Don’t be afraid to ask for what you need.

So my little Dorothy, you’ve always had the power inside you. All you have to do is have someone show you where it is. You’re so much stronger than you give yourself credit for.

Get some mentoring if you aren’t achieving what you want as fast as you want it. You need an outside perspective and a little re-focusing. Just make sure you’re ready to hear the truth.

Because when your actions and your purpose are in alignment everything falls into place. Things just flow. If that’s not happening for you, you’re getting in your way and blocking it.

Ask for help and watch yourself break through those barriers.
