“What’s in your life today that was once a dream? What was a desire you had in the past that at the time seemed difficult or impossible to achieve – but now it’s in your life today?”
As someone that is very achievement orientated, I often feel like I have not done enough. I ask myself what have I done? I need to do more!
Particularly, I state this in terms of my career, but it goes for every aspect of my life, including my marriage, my parenting, my relationships with family and friends, my health, giving back etc
As a result, answering this question was great for me.
Even though I feel like I have not done anywhere near enough, it was surprising to realise the things that I have in my life that were once a dream. Things quickly become normalised once a new height is reached.
As a result, answering this, one, creates a sense of gratitude and two, provides evidence that what may seem difficult/impossible to achieve in the future can be done.
I would still like to have achieved more by now, but great things take time 🙂
How about you? What things in your life were once a dream?
