When people would ask me, ‘What’s the dream?’ I used to think it needed to appear to be grand and that it should be impressive.
The criteria for big dreams to me has always appeared as making big money and/or having big experiences.
I experienced people throughout my life say things like:
I want to build a multi-million-pound company.
I want to have a big house and a high-paying job.
I want to travel the world and experience all different cultures.
And I’d think that I too needed a similar dream of the same magnitude for mine to be valid.
So I would try to create something that would sound impressive, and then judge myself for not having a big enough dream compared to ‘them’.
As a result, I kept trying to find my dream out there somewhere, in something.
I spent the day with my amazing coach Sachin Sharma before for an in-person coaching day.
For the first time ever, I shared my big dream with him without any expectation or judgement on it.
My big dream is to live with absolute simplicity.
What does that mean for me?
My big dream is to have fun every day.
My big dream is to love my work so much that it never feels like work.
My big dream is to light myself up every day from within and help others do the same.
My big dream is to be a loving wife and mother.
My big dream is to love my family and friends, which includes my clients.
My big dream is to cook and clean with love and joy.
My big dream is to feel free and love myself deeply.
I realised that I am living my biggest dream right now. And I get to continue deepening this dream as part of the daily practice that is life.
The beauty of this to me is that my dream is not somewhere I need to get to. It is a created space within me that I can create anything from.
I am beginning to see that the effect of creating from this place within, means that anything I create is done so with love and joy. The effect, for me, is a thriving coaching business, a loving marriage, a fun and full life, and so much more.
I am seeing how who I am being is allowing me to live my biggest dream now, instead of pinning it on something out in the future.
I now see that my dream is perfectly sized for me, without comparison or judgment š
Big dreams are about who you are becoming in the creation of them, not about the result itself.
Have you ever thought about what your big dream really is?
