S1 E7: Dreaming Big and Real Enough

Walking On Into Life and Leadership

"Wideman with the rebound who kicks it out to Lewis. Dawgs down by 2....Lewis brings it up with Bennett and Martin in the corners. 5 seconds left....Lewis with the drive in and kick out to Bennett for 3! It's up and GOOOOOOD!!! Dawgs win! Dawgs win!"

I wish I could tell you that was a real story. It wasn't. I spent more time on the sideline watching Kamar Baldwin hit game winners. But I used to dream that listening to Justin Bieber's song "Believe" on his Believe Deluxe album. Never heard it? Go listen to it before this episode. You'll be even more inspired. Sorry Shelbie (my wife), I had to tell them.

I have always been a dreamer. I have always had a clear vision and goal in mind of where I want to be, what I want to do, and how I want to do it. But putting those dreams into action has been more difficult. Having the courage to step outside of my comfort zone? No thank you. But I knew if I wanted to truly reach my potential and be all that I could be, I had to.

In this episode we are going to talk about dreaming. Not the dreaming that goes on while we sleep, but the dreams that are on our heart day in and day out. We'll discuss why that's a good thing and why you shouldn't be afraid to have those dreams. It's ok if they don't come true. My game winner at Butler never did, but let me tell you why because I learned to dream then, more of my dreams are coming true now. I want that same feeling for you.
