“If a person holds no ambitions in this world, he suffers unknowingly. If a person holds ambitions, he suffers knowingly, but very slowly.”
― Alan Lightman, Einstein’s Dreams
The two words dreams and ambitions are the two sides of a same coin. All have ambitions and all dream of attaining their ambitions. For that, we should be imaginative also. Think of a person, who does not have any vision and dreams, he will simply be going as he is directed, nothing is new to him and he may be unwilling to accept any challenges and adapt with changes. The result,he will fed up with the life and he will fall in depression.
On the contrary, what will be the life of a person, who has dreams and visions. He will surely design his future. He will think of the pros and cons of each action. Attention! proper planning is necessary for the fulfillment of the dreams, visions and ambition. For that, he has to face different challenges and for him, those challenges are like thorn in roses.
While dreaming, I usually keep a word “don’t fret about the by gone yesterdays”, that I read somewhere else. It is true that, the past is gone, but we can learn lessons from the past, and it will be guiding you throughout the future.
Recently, I have read an old saying from a newspaper, it says, Our past is an old paper, present is newspaper, future is question paper and our life is an answer paper. We should be cautious, courageous, wise and confident while taking our decisions. If not, it will end as a tissue paper.
We should be judicious while dreaming. Day dreaming may ruin the future. While dreaming about something, we should have a chart on what will be the next step. Try hard for attaining each goal, learn the lessons from each attempt. Correct the mistakes and go forward with confidence. Success will follow you and a bright future will be the final result.
While dreaming keep the words of former Indian president, Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, the great scientist, ” Dream, Dream, Dream; Dreams transform into thoughts, And thoughts result in action.”
