Your dreams
are earned not given
As long as you stay focused
and continue to elevate and grow,
you can make
all your dreams come true
Things Earned
Achieving Dreams
Don’t Take For Granted…
Don’t be too preoccupied
chasing your dreams
to stop and cherish
those around you
that allow you to do so.
A Dream Begins…
A dream can’t begin without belief and a plan.
The Starting Point
It all starts with a dream
If you can find one
that you’re truly passionate about
then your journey can begin
A Writer’s Work Of Art
When you pour your
every blood, sweat and tears
into your craft of writing,
you have given it
what no other artist
could give it,
a piece of your soul
Once you do that
you can truly call it
a work of art
Mark’s Musings #46
When it comes to pursuing your dreams,
do not be concerned with your slow progress
be afraid of thinking about all the possibilities
and not doing anything
Adopt “Your” Work Ethic
When pursuing your goals or dreams,
adopt a work ethic that suits you
and only you
Because you know
what you’re striving for
But make sure that you put in
consistency, hard work, focus and discipline
Doing so will make all the difference
and change your outlook
You’ll have that perseverance
to overcome anything that comes in your path
In the end
you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing
you truly did it “your” way
Open That Door
Never be afraid
to open the door
to your dream
By doing so, you unleash
endless possibilities,
unbridled optimism,
strength beyond measures
that will all enable you
to aid you in your quest
to achieve what you only dared to think of
So find that key
of courage
and open that door
to your dream
It’s Just A Dream Until…
A dream is just a dream
until you act upon it
So make reckless attempts,
learn from all your
successes and failures
And every once in awhile,
pause to take a moment
to remind yourself
there’s no looking back
The only way to making
your passion
become a reality
is by simply
always taking a step forward
An Opportunity To Shine
Everyone hopes to get an opportunity
once in their life
to go for their dreams
Very few succeed
They’re the lucky ones
that got a once in a lifetime opportunity
to give it their all
Then there are those
that never get that opportunity,
for that chance to shine,
to display their talents and abilities
They’re the ones
that persevere and fight everyday
to strive to make sure
they are not denied that chance
to have that one special moment
where they can showcase
all that they are
in hopes of making
their dreams a reality
