Are You Taking Action on Your Daydreams?

By Anthony Cullen

How pleasant to indulge yourself in a daydream! Whether you are a positive or a negative person, you surely daydream. The clerk daydreams of inheriting a fortune, buying the company he is working for, and then firing his hated boss.

Indeed, Roy Howard was once upon a time a poor newsboy selling the Indiana Times in the streets. Then one day he had made enough money to buy the paper for cash.

By her wishful thinking Dolly Dizzysteps is picked up at the curb by the handsomest hunk of man imaginable, who screeches to a stop in a shining new Cadillac convertible.

He presents her with diamond jewelry and flies with her off to Dreamland in his private jet airplane. Actually, though, there was once a miner's daughter who got married to a millionaire.

Every man can be a superman in his daydreams. Every woman can be whatever women want most to be in her daydreams. Amazingly enough, like Roy Howard and the miner's daughter, there are many men and women who do make their dreams come true in full or in great part.

There are many others who could do the same - transform their dreams into reality. But besides the desire to do it there needs to be a positive mindset also. It is those who develop a can-do attitude who succeed in making their dreams come true.

On the other hand, those who stay in a negative mindset condemn themselves to failure. Wishful thinking with no action is just as mind-numbing as hard liquor.

Indeed, there are two very different varieties of daydreamers. The positive type takes action, believing the dreams can be made to come true. The negative type remains sitting on the couch, and gets no results.
