Don't Wait to Pursue Your Dreams, Do THIS Instead
/“I’ve been wanting to paint more.”
My childhood friend shared that he took a painting class recently and felt inspired to do it more.
“You want to paint? I have some paints … let's do it!”
I was already off my cushion before he could respond.
Within minutes, I had set everything out.
When I looks at my own blank canvas I decided to write my latest mantra:
“Don’t dream it … be it.”
A few weeks ago, I saw Rocky Horror Picture Show in a theater for the first time.
In the climax of the show, Frank-N-Furter sings this line in “Rose Paints My World.”

The mistake most people make when it comes to pursuing their dreams.
The 5 words that can inspire you to take action now.
What to do when your dream is far off and seems too big.
It’s a call to not allow your dreams to stay wistful wishes, but instead go for them, now.
What’s something that you’ve been wanting to do? What’s one way that you can do it, now?
You can take this several different ways.
Overt Action:
Want to paint more, get some paints and do it.
Want to play an instrument, pick it up and hold it.
Want to exercise more, put on your shoes and go for a walk.
Symbolic Action:
Want to be a pilot, change your phone home screen to be a picture of looking out of a cockpit window.
Want to get a dog, go visit a dog park.
Want to fall in love, write poetry to your future-lover.
These are just a few examples to get you thinking about what you can do to live your dreams now.
Remember, you attract what you are, not what you want.
Don’t let your wanting get in the way of your being.
Don’t dream it, be it.
