| The same ole memories are just as strong, Same Ole dreams don't come true. Lyrics Excerpt from All I'm Missing Is You by Don Williams |
Dreams may fade away once reality sets in
And all plans may be susceptible to failure
But both dreams and plans are defeated
When we reinforce bad memories by:
Continuously recalling them to mind
Or focusing on our reality until the future ceases to exist in our mind
So, the first dragon you must slay are your negative memories
The second is your exhausting preoccupation with the present
If you are planning for the execution of your dreams
You have a responsibility to:
Positively utilize the pain of the past to build a future
And see the present as an opportunity to build a future
So do not get stuck in the past
And so not assume your plans will fail
Rather let the future take a hold of you
Let it dictate your present action and experiences
Let your dreams defeat your fears
And let your plans outsmart your fears.
