Dream Big – Think Big – Start Small

So I’m a little Twitter Rookie, but I have to say that Twitter is entertaining me a lot better than Facebook these days.  Seriously, Facebook is great for stalking your old classmates and watching feuds play out between your cousin and his ex-girlfriend, but Twitter is at a whole new level for networking and staying up on the latest news in world events or fun pop culture. Follow me on twitter @swandivebellyfl and I’ll follow you back! It’s fun! :)

My best find on Twitter today was Eric Thomas’s new video.  I already dedicated one post to this hip hop preacher, but I find him so impressive, I’m going for post #2 already.  His video series is called T.G.I.M.  Yeah, Thank God It’s Monday.  Now that is a novel thought, especially for this girl who hates a Monday morning alarm clock!  On the other hand, if I’m all about chasing down dreams, I should be escatic for Monday to come.  It’s another opportunity to achieve some new milestones on my journey.

He asks: Do you believe?  Do you believe that one day you are not going to live in the world given to you, but in the world you dream of.  He preaches:  Everybody’s got sight-very few have vision.  He warns:  Dream big.  Think big.  Start Small. 

I love this message, and I am especially glad it came on a Monday to energize me to focus on my dreams throughout this week.  I definitely have faith in where I want to go, and I have to remember that the little plans and small accomplishments of today will lead to the big plans and huge accomplishments of tomorrow!

 

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!  I can’t ring in 2012 without a blog post to keep me focused on my dreams and goals. This video is narrated by Eric Thomas “The Hip Hop Preacher” who shared his secret to success with students at Michigan State University.  My husband Cody found this video and started posting it on his friends’ facebook pages whenever he thought they need a little extra encouragement…Recently, the video showed up on my page, and I rewatch it whenever my motivation starts to wane.  Thanks for the support, Cody!
