Quick question… What would you like to be when you grow up?
I bet you often heard this question asked many times from your parents and relatives when you were still young. But… have you really given that question some deep thoughts?
Different people have different dreams. So, what’s your aspiration? Do you want to become a doctor, lawyer, pilot, or entertainer?
Or…
Would you like to be another, say, Tom Cruise… or, Bill Gates?
Let me tell you right now, you can become what you want to become. And, please… it’s NEVER TOO LATE.
You can become anything you want to be as long as you put your MIND and HEART into it. I recommend you read some biographies of the people who inspire you the most. It’s a great way to give you some guidance through their experiences they share within their biographies as to how they got to where they are today.
Here are 4 more quick tips, and words of encouragement to keep you all fired up towards becoming WHO you really want to be in life.
Tip #1.
Learn as much as possible about the person you aspire to be. Let’s say your dream is to become a basketball player. Gather all facts and information about the sport. Research on the internet, read books, check out the library, watch the games and analyze team strategies; in other words, strive to be an EXPERT.
Tip #2.
You must have the DESIRE and PASSION to know everything you can about the subject of YOUR choosing. If you can, look around for a real person to imitate or look up to. For example, you may see yourself as Michael Jordan (for basketball), Mariah Carey (for singing), or Heide Klum (for modeling).
Feel, talk, and act as if you’re that person you’re emulating. You’ll quickly acquire the behaviour and qualities of that person. This formula works like a charm; so what have you got to loss? Give it a try!
Tip #3.
Take Motivated Action and start pursuing your dreams! Don’t wait for everything to be perfect. That will never happen. There will always be bumps and obstacles ahead of you in life. The important thing is to start Right NOW and adjust along the way. You’ll be glad did.
Tip #4.
Persist until the VERY end. Never let failures distract you. Just keep pushing yourself to the limit. If you EVER think that a task seems impossible to accomplish… banish the thought… IMMEDIATELY! Your mind has the capacity to bring into reality anything you desire.
As long as you stay FOCUSED and PATIENT on your objective… despite any setbacks or discouragements, you’ll become successful much sooner than you may be thinking right now.
