I have spent the last week upgrading my blogs to self-hosted ones. Having never done anything like that before I was a little intimidated by the whole task. There were parts that I knew would be simple but I also recognized there were things I knew nothing about.
So I jumped into it and actually had a good time doing it. I’m sitting here today feeling an enormous sense of accomplishment. Interesting. I think about some of the major things I’ve done and many times there was little “sense of accomplishment”. I think when we delve into something new and maybe even something that carries some risk, we experience much more satisfaction when we complete it. Seems like the greater the apprehension the greater the satisfaction.
As I continue to review all the nuances of the new format, I have no doubt there is still much to “fix” on the new blogs but the major job is finished. If you notice any links broken or other problems, please let me know.
I’ve been reading Put Your Dream to the Test by John Maxwell. He addresses the following questions in each chapter but in the forward he has what he calls “The Dream Test”.
The Ownership Question: Is my dream really my dream?
The Clarity Question: Do I clearly see my dream?
The Reality Question: Am I depending on factors within my control to achieve my dream?
The Passion Question: Does my dream compel me to follow it?
The Pathway Question: Do I have a strategy to reach my dream?
The People Question: Have I included the people I need to realize my dream?
The Cost Question: Am I willing to pay the price for my dream?
The Tenacity Question: Am I moving closer to my dream?
The Fulfillment Question: Does working toward my dream bring satisfaction?
The Significance Question: Does my dream benefit others?
He asks pertinent questions for each item to help you determine where you are in the dream process. So any people have quit dreaming maybe because they’ve settled for being content or they’ve been disappointed in past experiences or people have told them their dreams are ridiculous. Some people just lack the confidence to step out and pursue their dreams.
If you’ve lost your dream or just never had one – start dreaming now! Dreams are the things that give your life passion. They’re the reason to get up in the morning; they propel us through life and help us to live life to the fullest and experience all that we can be.
