"If you want the big ship you better build a bigger doc."

I read this quot this week and I can't remember who said it, but this is all about setting goals, and not letting fear dictate your path. All of us have dreams. As children some might say we had outlandish dreams. I think truly we didn't give ourselves limits to our dreams. we didn't have fear. I wanted to be Chuck Norris, in fact I would still like to be Chuck Norris, but It's seeing this dream as it is. I wanted to do Martial Arts, I still can the only thing stopping me is me.

It is important to dream small and big. dreams can be considered goals. If you don't have goals in life what are you really accomplishing? Life is not meant for us to accomplish mediocrity. We are meant for much more than that, it is fear that keeps us from becoming more. The fear of failure is a funny thing. If you don't try then you won't fail, but I see it as if your not trying then you are failing. What is the worst that can happen if you try for your dreams and you come up short. That just means you get new dreams and you keep trying. Giving your beast at something no matter the outcome is always a success on some level, but it's up to the individual to really give there best.

I look at Randy Pausch, and he was able to do some very fulfilling things in his life. This is a man that didn't find success everywhere he turned. He had to deal with rejection and climb walls to achieve his dreams, but he did achieve them. Maybe his path was not what he had envisioned, but the destination was still the same.
