Make real things not dreams

Dream

We spend too much time dreaming instead of trying to make those dreams real. I see way too many people stand still just dreaming with great things or achievements but not making nothing to change their situation.
Let's do something about it.
I know that it always good and smooth when we dream. Another thing is when we actually try to develop something. A lot of obstacles and bad things seem to show up constantly. These things were not there when we dream it. Why? Well, because it was a dream. That's it's job. To make things pretty and nicer and stimulate us to try and get it. Well, after we start it, our job is to try to achieve the main goal. Make it successful.

The road is full of small bumps and holes, but there's still a lot of nice pavement and wonderful highways to ride. So, dreams are nice but we need to make some of them real or else it loses their purpose.

Wonderful talk about DOING IT instead of just thinking of it - Seth Godin Conference Video

This is really, really important. Every single day I see somebody talk about a wonderful idea they had about a business of something, a book, a document, etc. But it's just a few days on a year that I see somebody really do something about it and start... and complete something. They take the two initial breaths need it to succeed and complete the task.

I'm doing my part. I'm starting a new thing/business/project/whatever at least, one a month. And I'm keeping doing that as long as I'm capable of... I'm on the "shipping" team.
