We've all heard the phrase, "Just Do It." It really says it all in making your dreams come true. I can't talk about this enough because we all do it...uh before we get to doing it.
You know the scenario;
We have a dream. Ah, this is what I'll do.
Then the mental bargaining begins. Let's do something basic. I'm going to get a new car.
Okay, having said that, then, well, "I really can't afford a new car. Maybe an inexpensive new car. Actually my old one is still pretty good. What if something happens and i can't pay for it? Maybe a used car. Well that's a great car but this one will be good enough."
Don't do that. DON'T DO THAT!
Be responsible. Figure out your budget. Will you have to save to get a new car? Yes, probably but it can be done. Maybe a new Kia but not a Ferrari. Now if you want the Ferrari, you are going to have to figure out how to have a couple hundred thousand dollars of disposable income. Maybe another dream to support that dream. Or maybe a lease. Maybe there is a dealer willing to trade services to allow you to drive the Ferrari on a limited basis. I'm going off on a tangent here but you see, you have to be a little creative but permissive. YOU have to be the one to allow yourself to follow your dream. Really, there are no roadblocks in the way. The blocks are all created by you and can just as easily be overcome by...YOU.
