THE NEED FOR A BIGGER PICTURE


When we were kids, we played a lot in the world of fantasy which we had in our head, we would say things like, “Daddy, buy me an airplane”, with the mindset that our parents can do all that we wish and ask for, but as we grew older and got wiser, the harsh reality of life began to dawn on us and we started seeing things from the perspective the world created for us, due to various reasons, ranging from our background to economic situations. All these factors have limited our desire to want things, wish and aim for a better life.

Today, I am writing to open our eyes to the other aspect of life which we have been blind towards. This is basically the need to dream big, need to break out of our comfort zone and have a positive mentality. When you limit your reasoning or scope, you never know more than the fence you build for yourself, on a daily basis, you need to strive to get bigger and open your mind to what and who you could become. 

The thought of all these alone serves as fuel that powers you very hard to achieve your aim. The best part of it is that you do not pay anybody or need to involve anybody in your thought. To building positive gigantic mental pictures, you need to tap into the creative part of you.

 A mentor of mine once said “First within and then without’’, this means that you have to build a picture of what you desire first in your mind before it is seen in real world. Travel, read, make new friends, meet and discuss with people that would challenge you to ask for more from life. Everything you see is as a result of someone’s dream at one point or the other which was followed through to a conclusive end.

Think, Create and analyze till your brain sweats, follow it up with meaningful smartwork guiding you towards its realization, and I tell you, the world will marvel at you.
