Living Your Dreams/Following Your Heart

The ultimate defense against growing old is your dream.  Nothing is as real as your dream.  You dream is the path between who your are and who you hope to become.

Success is not money.  Success is not power.  The criteria for your success are to be found in your dreams, within yourself.

Your dream is something to hold on to.  It will always be your link to the person you are today, young and full of hope.  Hold on to it and you may grow old, but you will never be old.  That is the ultimate success.

Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it.  Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.

-  Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Great things are done by people who think great thoughts and then go out into the world to make their dreams come true.

-  Ernest Holmes

I’ve always believed that if you stick to a thought and carefully avoid distractions along the way, you can fulfill a dream.  Anyone who wants to achieve a dream must stay strong, focused and steady.

All big men are dreamers.  They see things in the soft haze of spring day or in the red fire of a long winter’s evening.  Some of us let great dreams die, but others nourish and protect them, nurse them through bad days tills they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.

-  Woodrow Wilson

Each man should frame life so that at some future hour facts and his dreamings meet.

Dreams are extremely important.  You can’t do it unless you imagine it.

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions.  Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you too can become great.

Dreams come true; without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them.
