Dreamers dream. And here’s something that’s cool. You don’t have to be an author, painter, philosopher, or songwriter to be a dreamer. Plumbers, carpenters, and electricians can all be dreamers. So can doctors, lawyers, and even (gulp) politicians (although most of their “dreams” are nightmares for everyone else).
To be a dreamer, just focus or meditate on the desires of your heart.
I mentioned, years ago, how the most successful people are the best dreamers. And I said, “After all, no carpenter ever built a successful career without first nailing down his ideas in his head (pun intended). No plumber ever got his first wrench, drain snake, and flashlight without first unclogging his own thoughts about where to start. And no electrician ever plugged into a community of customers without a light first going off in his own head.”
And think about it. Every successful person’s journey started with a dream. Or you could say call it an idea.
A thought.
You’re thinking about it right now, aren’t you?
When I shared those descriptions of the different types of dreamers, you could “see” each of those workers. And I think it’s more than just cool how my words were transformed, through your eyes (or ears) into your thoughts. Then, your thoughts created pictures. And those pictures are where dreams start.
So. It doesn’t depend on what you plan to do with your life.
It doesn’t depend on where you plan to go.
And it doesn’t depend on how you plan to start and finish.
Just go ahead and be a dreamer. Or, if that’s just not your thing, then throw your support to someone who IS a dreamer. And remember to thank God for the dreams and desires in your heart. Then, remember…
Dreamers Dream
Dream a little dream a lot
And dream away your frown.
Dream up stardust Christmas lights
To sparkle every town.
Dream at night and in the day
And never let dreams end…
Because they come from Jesus,
A dreamer’s truest friend.
