Not everyone is going to understand your dream or your choice to make that dream a reality. Everything is possible and sure it helps if your friends and family support you but you need to understand their support may not always appear the way you want or even need it to.
I'm a cheerleader. I don't just tell people what they want to hear but I see limitless potential in everyone's dreams and the practical applications available to manifest those dreams. I'm there for those I love and those of you I don't even know yet because I truly believe everything is possible. Not everyone will support you in the way that I do but that doesn't mean they don't support you.
Celebrating accomplishments both big and small are all steps in the direction towards manifesting your dreams. After all, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step... you have to remember that good things come to those that wait, have faith rather than hope and continue to work towards your dreams.
Some people will worry about your stepping into the unknown. They will want you to be secure both physically and financially (another physicality.) Take that for what it is - show and express your gratitude for them to care enough about you to worry and keep moving towards your dream.
Dare to live the life you imagined because nothing in this life is guaranteed no matter how "safe" you play it so you might as well be able to look back and say "I was happy, I lived my dream." Each of us is born with a gift to share, we are all valuable to the great design of life and the people we share that gift with. Abundance is yours with each day you share that gift and peace when you look back on that day.
Living your dream is the single most important thing you can do for yourself and others. Lead by example. So many people are afraid to take a risk to find the pure joy that comes from accomplishing your dreams.
I hear all the time, "Well I don't know that I really like my job but I am lucky to have one." UGH! Really? It's so sad to me when people adopt that attitude because they are letting fear take over. How will they look back on their life when their time is done? I can't imagine looking at 30+ years in a job you don't like without thinking about how much time I wasted not being happy or doing the things I dreamed and loved.
Fear should never decide anything in your life. Living your dream brings joy and we all deserve a little of that but only we can gift that to ourselves.
So how do you make peace with the people in our life that aren't as encouraging as you hoped? Find the cheerleaders in your life and sound your dreams off them and then share what you have accomplished with the others in your life that care enough to worry about you. Every accomplishment will help relieve some of those worries they hold and maybe you will even inspire them to put their fears aside and dream a little more and take the risk to move towards their own dreams.
