It’s „Quote of the month-time“ again. I really like to choose a quote at the beginning of the month and just have a thought about it or sometimes even live with this quote in mind. If you want to check out my previous blog post about why it is worth it to go your own way, click here. For this month’s quote I chose: “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do, so throw off the bowlines, sail away from safe harbour and catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, Dream, Discover“. By Mark Twain.
I love that one a lot because it’s so true and we DO know it but we often push it to the back of our mind. So we should remind ourselves more often to be brave and chase our dreams.
It is a saying that if you aren’t scared of your dreams, they aren’t big enough. And every dream is meant to be chased no matter how small or big this dream might be. Therefore ALWAYS dream BIG! There are little or maybe even big things you regret but if you wouldn’t have done those “mistakes” you wouldn’t be the person you are today. So NEVER regret things who made you smile or happy at the time. Never be afraid to realise your dreams or the things you really want. You won’t want to have in mind that you never even tried. That’s the worst! So let me give you that little advice, and believe me - never miss an opportunity to aim your goals. You can still make them real one day but some things are “later” too late. Some things need to be done straight away and can’t be postponed. Don’t be scared and stay in your comfort zone. Leave safe harbour – you can’t lose anything by trying. And as you really want something you go and get it and you can do it. But first you need to believe in yourself and in your strength. Another thing is: don’t care what other people think about YOUR dreams. They have no right to destroy them or make you quit. Always surround yourself with people with same dreams or who encourage and support you realising them. Dreams are easier chased in company. The thing is: I know...we do care about others opinion anyway because we think they are our friends and who doesn’t listen to the opinion of their friends but as I said if they don’t support you they can’t be called friends. That are your dreams and you need to follow them. Those dreams mean something to you and if you can’t stop think about them – realise them. Just do it! Others won’t do it for you. Good things only come by actions. Other people won’t regret if YOU turned your goals into reality or not. They won’t even have a thought about it. And you know why? Because they weren’t their goals! As you don’t want to have ruined your dreams, never ruin someone else’s dream! Always be supportive in any way possible!
I know I’m rambling around but I think every single one of us have done things we highly regret not doing. One day we realise that mistake and we want to correct it but that’s not always possible. So just be brave enough to do it at the first place.
So lovelies always remember: Be brave, chase your dreams and you won’t have anything to regret.
Love,
