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
Dreams can happen
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.
Mark’s Musings #53
In order to make your dream a reality, you must be willing to take the first step.
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
Stay The Course
You can have doubters
telling you, you can’t make it
There are detractors
that may sway you from your path
There are critics
who’ll scrutinize your flaws
And there are many other
that may cause you to have self doubt
and second guess yourself
You may struggle with
overcoming your obstacles
You may be humbled by others
who are more talented
and you’ll tempted
to drop everything and quit
But as long as you persist
and never let go of your dream,
that is truly the best choice
you can make for yourself
into attaining your goal
Continue To Dream
We all have goals in life
that we want to achieve
When setbacks arise,
just continue to dream
There’ll be people
who’ll question and doubt your intentions;
don’t worry,
just continue to dream
There will be constant obstacles
that throw chaos into your routine,
stay fluid and
just continue to dream
No matter who or what
comes in the path of your goal,
just remember your passion
is everything,
continue to let your heart, mind and soul
lead the way,
always press onward and
just continue to dream

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
Mark’s Musings #45
When you put effort into something,
it matters
So never be ashamed
of all the hard work you put into your dream
regardless of what it is
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
