Day No. 21 of The Dream Big Challenge

Day Twenty: Be patient! It is finally here, the last day of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge! Over the course of the last three weeks we’ve been working on affirming, imagining, believing, praying, forgiving, serving, detailing, getting outside of our comfort zone, speaking about our dreams, visualizing our dreams, and mastering our “I Am” statements. On the twentieth and final day of the challenge we will practice being patient.

Wikipedia defines patience as “the state of endurance under difficult circumstances, which can mean persevering in the face of delay or provocation without becoming annoyed or upset; or exhibiting forbearance when under strain, especially when faced with longer-term difficulties”. Although we should have developed a habit of focusing on our dreams by now, we can’t rush the process. Many of us have been thinking of negative thoughts for a long time. To redirect the energy to a more positive direction will take time and require patience. You’ve focused for 21 days and have created a habit of positive dreaming. Are you willing to continue the habit for another 21 days, for six months, for a year? How about continuing the habit of positive dreaming until your dream comes true? Then, when that dream is realized are you ready to develop a new one? Can you experience positive dreaming as a way of life? Can you hold your vision in faith? Your life is waiting for you and the only thing that is stopping you from being all you can be is you. Leave me a comment when you’ve completed the challenge and let me know what you were able to manifest over The 21 Day Dream Big challenge and remember to dream BIG!

DAY 21 OF THE DREAM BIG CHALLENGE: BE PATIENT

Day 20 of the 21 Day Dream Big Challenge

Day Twenty: Dream your dream out loud: With only two days left of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge you should be experiencing a new habit of focusing on your dream. A few days ago we began telling everyone about our dream and speaking it into existence. Now, I want you to get into the habit of repeating your dream to yourself out loud AS IF IT HAS ALREADY COME TRUE. Remember, the subconscious does not know the difference between the truth and a lie. So, we are going to hold the highest view of ourselves in consciousness and speak it often.

This is where you will begin to speak your “I AM” statements. “I AM” are two of the most powerful words in the English language. They represent the Creator who said “I AM that I AM.” What you put behind your “I AM” statements move the Universe in a way that will support your words. So, no longer will we use statements like “I am weak, fearful, unhealthy, confused, broke or unemployed”. Instead we would say, “I am strong, fearless, healthy, focused, prosperous and employable”. You can also look at it this way, if you want a new job and you have been manifesting a certain role, such as a Sales Manager, then you will speak, with authority “I AM a Sales Manager and my new job is awaiting me”. If you are hope to lose weight you would say out loud, “I AM at a healthy weight and I takes steps every day to maintain my health.” Should your dream be to gain a new relationship you my say “I AM a good mate and in turn I Will meet my new partner.” Days ago we set a calendar date when our dreams will come true. If you like, you can add that date to your “I AM” statements. Either way, start speaking the dream you have for yourself out loud with your “I AM” statements as if it has already come into existence.

DAY TWENTY: DREAM YOUR DREAM OUT LOUD!

Day No. 19 of The 21 day Big Dream Challenge

Day nineteen: Know your worth. There are only two days left of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge! We’ve spent the last three weeks working through several principles designed to create a habit of positive dreaming. Today we will commit ourselves to knowing there is abundance in the universe and we are worthy.

The Universe is a big, vast, expansive place of infinite possibilities. In the reality we have created there is an abundance of houses, cars, money, great jobs, health and loving partners. Why, then, would you be singled out as someone who does not deserve this abundance? Recognize right now that you are one of the most magnificent creations on earth. You have the ability to do, be, and have anything you want simply by thinking it into existence. But even more powerful than this bit of information is the fact that you are worthy of the all the blessings this life has to offer. Tell yourself over and over again that you are worthy until it becomes something you begin to believe. Know that you are worthy until you feel it. Live like you are worthy because it is your birthright.

DAY NINETEEN: KNOW THAT YOU ARE WORTHY

Day No. 18 of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge

Day Eighteen: Take 3 steps to achieve your dreams: We are in the final days of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge! Over the course of the past three weeks we’ve been working on affirming, imagining, believing, praying, forgiving, serving, detailing, getting outside of our comfort zone, speaking our dreams, visualizing our dreams and now we are taking three bold steps that will move our dreams forward.

Ask yourself what three things you can do right at this moment towards making your dreams come true? If you are working on your health can you try a new medical procedure, start a workout program or change your diet? If you are looking to attract a new mate can you try a dating service, ask a friend to arrange a blind date or ask someone out you’ve always had a crush on? If you want a new job opportunity what about getting a recruiter, asking current contacts for recommendations or taking an on-line course that will sharpen your skills? Think long and hard and come up with your own list of three things you can do right now that will get you closer to your dream.

DAY EIGHTEEN: TAKE THREE STEPS TOWARD ACHIEVING YOUR DREAMS!

Day No. 17 of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge

Day Seventeen: Create A Vision Board of Your Dream! The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge is coming to a close but if you’re new to the challenge you can start at day one and I'll be with you all the way! To date we’ve been working on affirming, imagining, believing, praying, forgiving, serving, detailing, getting outside of our comfort zone, speaking our dreams into existence and now we need to create a vision board or “road map” if you will, of our dream.

Go through magazines, catalogs and the like and start cutting out photos, sayings, and words that support your dream. You can even write your own sayings or take your own photos. Once you have a collection of the items that support your dream post them. I like to use a large poster board and I’ve covered it with sayings and photos that support my dream. Originally I placed my vision board in the hallway and passed it every day, several times a day. However, it was not until I moved my vision board into my bedroom, where I could see it upon falling asleep and upon waking that things started to really change for me. Actually, the day after I moved the board I got the idea for The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge and so the movement began. Now, make your own vision board of your dreams, post them where you can see them, and watch your life begin to unfold!

DAY SEVENTEEN: CREATE A VISION BOARD OF YOUR DREAM

Day No. 16 of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge

Day Sixteen: Tell your dream to all who will listen. It is he sixteenth day of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge day! We’ve accomplished a lot by affirming, imagining, believing, praying, forgiving, serving, detailing, getting outside of our comfort zone, and now we are going to speak our dreams into existence.

Words have power and we will be using the power of words to speak into existence those things that we want to see manifested in our lives. Speak your Truth. Tell everyone you know what it is you want to do, be or have. Don’t worry about whether they don’t support your dream… that’s what yesterday’s work was for. By now you should have your inner circle that will support you in your journey? Today you will use your words to speak your dreams into reality. You never know who may be listening or who will be in a position to help.

DAY SIXTEEN: TELL YOUR DREAM TO ALL WHO WILL LISTEN

Day No. 15 of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge

Day Fifteen: Surround yourself with people who will support your dream. The end of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge is less than a week away from being completed! If you are just joining us don’t worry, start at the beginning and leave me notes along the way! Over the past two weeks we’ve affirmed, imagined, believed, prayed, forgiven, served, detailed, gotten outside of our comfort zone, set intentions, asked others to pray for us and now we are going to take a long hard look at the people we surround ourselves with.

As you take your spiritual walk and it becomes an every day habit you may find there are people who no longer fall in line with the new vision you have created for yourself. It doesn’t mean they are wrong or you are better than they are. It just means that you may have evolved and you may not be able to take everyone with you on your journey. As we roll into the last week of our challenge take a long hard look at the people you associate with the most with. Make sure you have a core group of people who you can lean on when you need strength, who will support your highest good, and who will support your dreams. This is very important on day number 15 as we move into day number 16 because we’ll need to call on our inner circle for tomorrow's challenge. It’s true, birds of a feather DO flock together so, ask yourself… are the people in your life supporting you as you fly high? Are these people helping you to shine the light in dark places or are they making light places dark? You can love someone and let them go. Letting them go may actually be the best then for both of your souls development.

DAY FIFTEEN: SURROUND YOURSELF WITH PEOPLE WHO WILL SUPPORT YOUR DREAM.

Day No. 14 of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge

Day Fourteen: Find a prayer partner. We are just one week away from concluding The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge and by now you should be seeing some real changes! Over the past two weeks we’ve affirmed, imagined, believed, prayed, forgiven, served, detailed, gotten out of our comfort zone and now we need to find another person who will hold our vision in prayer with us.

Sometimes, we are so close to what we want we can’t see the forest for the trees. It’s right there in front of us but we may have a hard time manifesting the dream. Or, we may be getting close to what want and we’re too afraid to claim our greatness. This is when we need a prayer partner who can pray for us or with us. If you are really committed to making your dream come true, you will set up a daily time to pray with your prayer partner until your dream is realized. If that is too much at this time, then make an appointment for a weekly prayer session with someone who will hold your vision in consciousness. There is power were two or more are gathered in His name. There is power when two or more are gather or your good!

DAY FOURTEEN: FIND A PRAYER PARTNER

Day No. 13 of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge

Day Thirteen: Push yourself to try something new. This is lucky day 13 of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge! We’ve affirmed, imagined, believed, prayed, forgiven, served, detailed and now we are going to push ourselves outside of our comfort zone. Today I’m asking you to do something new or TO do something you never thought you could. When you succeed… AND YOU WILL…. you will have reaffirmed your faith that you can do anything you set your mind to.

I got this idea while biking this morning. When I started out I had just hit the bike trail got a flat. I had to turn around and WALK my bike back to a near by bike shop to get it serviced. Luckily I had not gotten far on the trail and the newly open bike shop was there to pick the piece of glass out of my tire, fix the flat, and send me on my way. As I was riding I decided that I wasn’t going to do the 17 miles I originally set out to do. I was going the whole way, 23 miles round trip! I thought, if I take my time, ride easy, and tell myself I can then I make it to the end. When I got back home I realized I could do anything I set my mind to and so can you. So, why can’t we manifest our greatest desires? There is no reason we can’t. We can do anything we set our minds to do. Try something new task: a new recipe, sport, dance, arts and craft, anything you’ve wanted to do but thought you couldn’t. When you accomplish your goal you will be building up your faith energy and as we learned earlier, faith supports your dreams and helps them come true.

DAY THIRTEEN: PUSH YOURSELF TO TRY SOMETHING NEW

Day No. 12 of The Dream Big Challenge

Day Twelve: Examine your wants in detail and fine tune as needed. We are closing in on the last week of The 21 Day Dream Big Challenge. Having affirmed, imagined, believed, prayed, forgiven, and served it is time to reflect and look at our wants in detail. By now things you dreamed of should have begun to manifest. You should be experiencing a shift in consciousness and things should be getting drawn to you. Now need to take a long hard look at our dreams and make any adjustments to our affirmations, beliefs and prayers.

This is where I will repeat the saying, “be careful what you ask for because you just might get it”. I am focusing on attracting prosperity and many opportunities have opened up for me since I begun this challenge. In fact, I may not be able to manage all these wonderful new opportunities that are being presented to me. So, I have to get very specific about how many projects I want, who I will be working for, where I will be working and how these experiences will tie into my ultimate dream that I will manifest over the next five years. I will readjust my affirmations and prayers to support a fine tuned idea of what I want to attract and I believe with complete faith that my dreams will come true.

DAY NUMBER TWELVE: EXAMINE YOUR WANTS IN DETAIL AND FINE TUNE AS NEEDED
