A. P. J. Abdul Kalam — 'Dream is not that which you see while sleeping it is something that does not let you sleep.'

However if we do not nurture them, they will die or fade into a figment in our imagination.

Our dreams are meant to be a driving force in our inside, driving us to arriving there in real life; but when this driving force parks up, stagnation becomes reality.

Success requires Consistency as a key ingredient. Consistency would be in place only when our dreams are fresh, cherished and strong in our minds.

1. Identify and avoid dream killers.

Know and refrain as much as possible from those around you that seems to one way or the other always suffocate your aspirations, as seen either by their comments or disposition.

They are no good to your dreams. Intelligently keep them away from your dreams, aspirations and plan if you cannot necessarily avoid them.

2. Accommodate opportunities that will take you closer into attaining your dreams.

Be objectively open to opportunities that present potential of drawing you closer to your dreams.

Do not shy away from them; weigh them, and if they are appropriate, in line and crucial, accepts them.

This opportunities will keep you motivated and serve as a source of great encouragement.

3. See setbacks, as unfortunate as they may seem, as a detour that will ultimately culminate into a vital path of the journey.

Setbacks may delay you, but they will always make you stronger and razor sharper.

You will always never see any good in setbacks at first, but I can assure you that there is a good in it; you will eventually recognize it in the long run.

4. Know the difference between Passion and Interest, and make your dreams your passion.


Your passion is that thing you love doing and will readily put in tremendous efforts if required.

Whereas, your interests are those this you may also love, but never willing to put in as much work as required to getting the best out of it.

For instance, a man passionate about football will go through work to save and get season tickets so as to see his team's home games. But a man with interest in football will be content and grateful to just see the games in flat screen in the comfort of his home.

Make you dreams your passion not just an interest.

5. Never entertain discouragement.

Road blocks, offences, setbacks and hardness may come, but choose not to be discouraged. Discouragement will make nothing better, but worse.
