Dare To Dream
DREAM BIG: 2012 SUMMER OLYMPIC GAMES LONDON
By D. Gatekeeper
Hello Dreamers!
It’s that time again, when the world comes together to compete in
biggest arena for sports. The Olympic Games are upon us and London is the host city for this spectacular event. The Olympic Games allows the world’s top athletes to compete to the highest level of their ability. For most, it takes years of dedication and focus to prepare them mentally, physically, and emotionally to take on such an endeavor.
The Olympic Games also speak to the human spirit. People love to see the back story of athletes and their journey to this very moment. It allows us to connect with those we see part of ourselves in, and we relate to them. We become emotionally invested in the experience, and the competitor within us comes alive. We all want the opportunity to compete and prove that we belong. So when watching the games this year, take your passion and believe that you belong and prove that you have the right to compete on a grand stage.

Afterthought: When dreaming, never limit your possibilities. Sometimes we never think about what we are truly are capable of achieving. A great exercise it to continue to learn and grown in the area that your passion lies. Find people who are already doing something similar to what you are doing and use them as an outline to create your own blueprint.
We are always looking to profile people making a difference and making dreams come true for themselves and others. Please submit stories (for possible use) to [email protected].
