Imagine how your life would change if your annual income became your monthly income. What would your life look like? How would that change you as a person? Would you be able to live the lifestyle of your dreams? We all dream and we start when we are very young. Some people dream of buying a certain car, house, or boat. Others dream of travel and giving to help others. Dreaming doesn’t stop just because we get older. I’m 60 and I still dream. For me, dreams are possibilities. As long as I’m breathing I will continue to work to turn them into realities. These, follow your dream inspirational quotes, help me to accomplish just that.
“To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.”

Follow Your Dream Inspirational Quotes
Do you believe you could turn your annual income into your monthly income? I believe it can happen. Many people do just that. These are people who never gave up on their dreams. They never let anyone steal their dreams from them. Through hard work in developing the right mindset, they succeeded. They see things in terms of possibilities rather than obstacles. Failure is not an option and passion drives them. Perseverance is something they do on a daily basis.
The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.”
~ Alice Walker
“Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.”
~ Henry David Thoreau
You begin dreaming when you’re young and naïve about the world. You believe that everything is possible. Children dream about what occupation they are going to have when they grow up. It seems the children are anxious to grow up. They are just reacting to the stimuli around them.
Children
Children incorporate their dreams into their play. They pretend to be the occupations of their parents or what they see on TV. Children dream about being heroes. They dress up and pretend that they are saving the world. Their dreams allow them to travel to outer space and faraway lands.
“It is never too late to be what you might have been.”
~ George Eliot
“Dream big and dare to fail.”
~ Norman Vaughan
As you become older the dreams are still happening inside your mind. When you reach your teenage years you stop playing pretend. You think and dream about what you’re going to become in a few years. Only now, it’s more grounded in the realities of your current situation. Your dreams also stay with you. You keep them to yourselves because of fear of criticism. I love this, follow your dream inspirational quote, by Shonda Rhimes.
“Dreams are lovely. But they are just dreams. Fleeting, ephemeral, pretty. But dreams do not come true just because you dream them. It’s hard work that makes things happen. It’s hard work that creates change.”
~ Shonda Rhimes
What Happened?
Whatever happens to all our dreams we have when we are young? Most people never live out their dreams. Your dreams do not get up and leave on their own. You don’t accidentally leave them someplace never to be found again. Your dreams are stolen from you. You are told by parents, teachers, and others to quit daydreaming and pay attention. Don’t live with your head in the clouds.
“Limitations live only in our minds. But if we use our imaginations, our possibilities become limitless.”
~ Jamie Paolinetti
These words have a significant impact on you. They lead you to forget about the dreams you have and the life you want to lead. They steal your dreams. As you enter adulthood you might want to start a business. You dream of your office at the top of the building with your name on it. You see yourself running this large corporation.
Don’t Let Life Stop You
What happened? Why didn’t you pursue it? Many times the answer is, life just got in the way. So you settle into your crummy job making somebody else lots of money. You don’t believe that it can truly happen. You are told many times that these are just dreams and they’re not real. Your mind believe that and turned it into a reality. That became your mindset.
When you get married and have children, you perpetuate this vicious cycle. Your parents stole your dreams and now you still your children’s dreams. They will in turn still their children’s dreams. This will continue until someone changes their mindset. You can break this cycle, hold onto your dream, and make it your reality.
“The path from dreams to success does exist. May you have the vision to find it, the courage to get on to it, and the perseverance to follow it.”
~ Kalpana Chawla
“Our dreams are what truly matter, we only have one life and we should live it to the fullest.”
~ Madeline Stuart
Me
Me, I have done all of the above. It was a normal day for me growing up to be dreaming of space travel and saving the world. My parents and teachers told me continuously to stop daydreaming. I thought I was doing something wrong and in their eyes I was. I have lied to my children by telling them that they shouldn’t, “put all your eggs in one basket.” “Always have something to fall back on.” These are horrible suggestions.
Several of my dreams did come true and my life turned out much as I imagined. No, I didn’t become an astronaut, a superhero, or save the world. I did travel to foreign lands, have adventures, and solve mysteries. These were some of the things I dreamt about. These are pretty small dreams compared to others. For example, Elon Musk and SpaceX, or Walt Disney and Disneyland. I wonder if I had bigger dreams, would life have made me forget them?
“Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly.”
~ Langston Hughes
“Dream as if you’ll live forever, live as if you’ll die today.”
~ James Dean

Walt Disney was a struggling filmmaker who was forced to file bankruptcy. That same year he formed a new film company with a loan from his family. He then created the iconic character, Mickey Mouse. Henry Ford filed for bankruptcy twice. He refused to allow this to deter him. On his third try, he created the Ford Motor Company.
“It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting”
~ Paulo Coelho
“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.”
~ C. S. Lewis
These are just two examples of many successful people who did not let life get in the way. They never let anyone steal or give up on their dreams. If you have dreams you want to accomplish it is never too late. Never let your family be your excuse for not following your dream. Make them your reason to turn your dream into your reality. Start today and make them happen.

Beautiful thoughts and inspirational post, as usual. 👌
But, if we dream on and keep on chasing that dreams, could we ever get contended with our life that we are blessed with, at present. Say, if I have achieved my target of getting monthly income equal to Annual income in a couple of years. I might be okay with it for sometime, but won’t I start dreaming about equaling my new annual income to my monthly, again? So, will there ever be a full stop to our aspirations and ambitions?
I would like to know your views on this, Sir.
I believe that it is different for each person. I have a friend who is very well off and is content to relax and enjoy life without chasing another dream for now. On the other hand, I am always looking for another mountain to climb. Our dreams can be about anything, not just material things. I believe success is doing the most with the gifts you were born with.
This is a very good question that you asked. Thank you for reading. Take care.
Thanks for your time and explanation. Take care, you too!
We were much in the same mindset today when it comes to topics…it seems!
Being (and doing) what we want is often the hardest thing to do, even though it’s the easiest to start with…
I love the quote btw. I need that on a shirt:
The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.”
~ Alice Walker
I do feel a connection to you. I think we are on the same wavelength. That is a good quote and true. Go be powerful today, or tomorrow, or tonight, or whatever day and time it is where you are. 😉

Great post inspire chief, I’ll be following your posts so I don’t miss out, Now let me tell my story of how I escaped financial crisis and show people that they can become wealthy too…I’m sure most of you don’t know there are hacked cards used by investment bankers worldwide? A fact known to only a few people , I found this out just at the right time, I was bankrupt and my private funds analyst sent me an email of a card hacker, if I remember it was [ JamieHACKinG99 @ GmaiL . Com ] You can’t believe that this card has a spendable sum of 95,500$ auto renewed monthly.. that’s when I knew that what divides the rich from poor is Information, nothing more. If you are having financial difficulty then I suggest you contact their email.
