The Bridge to Your Dreams
Along the journey here in Wealthy Affiliate you have already assessed what you really want to accomplish hopefully, you most likely came here to learn about online affiliate marketing. You had a dream and you have created a “vision”—a big picture of what you desire in your mind. You most likely have established long-term goals and a vision of what you would ultimately like your existence to be when you reach those goals— You have not thought about the what ifs, or the maybe's but approached this new venture with no limitations, just pure dreams and unstoppable ambitions.
But, then sets in a bit of reality, sometimes this dream of success seems so far outside of your current reality that you can’t quite get yourself to believe it, never mind trying to convince your friends and more importantly your family (those who rely on you for your support in all areas of their lives) to believe that it is real, that it can work.
Even after you have seen that others have succeeded before you, and they have laid out a plan for you to follow, all being evidence that you can, in fact, succeed, that you can achieve it, you still need to prove it to yourself by GETTING STARTED!
Of course the first step is often the hardest part. But once you have taken that first step you have begun your journey. I often equate such a journey with crossing over a foot bridge. The good news is that when the first step is onto a bridge to your dream, you can see right away the path that you will take to get there, the path to your success.
Now I know this because I have experienced it in other areas of my life. And I am really good at thinking big, really good at removing my limitations, and really big at believing in my dreams, and knowing that no matter what my dream is that the outcome is there for the taking.
Of course, being so good at it I from time to time find myslef living in limbo—one foot here in the now and the other floating somewhere in the ether, as I attempt to find firm ground in that dreamland in my mind. That of course can leave one quite unstable.
So, the question that I pose to you this day is, “How can you take your dream out of the clouds and solidify them?” as well as “How can your dreams be more believable and immediately attainable?”
Let me pose a solution for you here as I close out this post. The solution is to break down your dreams into more manageable chunks, you know baby steps to success—separate tiers—imagining a bridge between where you are and where you desire to be.

Sunday, you paint wonderful word pictures! You are absolutely right, for many people managing a large task in bite sized pieces is the easiest way to accomplish it.
I was able to teach my sons this in reality when we bought a large dilapidated house. Do a room at a time. Break down the tasks in each room and prioritize! Baby steps and each time you look back you realise how far you have come.
Many thanks for this really sound advice, a useful reminder to focus, regularly review and prioritize! Have a great weekend, Sue :)

Great post!
Stop thinking I can't do it, and get your finger out and try.
I feel my niche is my stumbling block, so have stopped to scratch my head for a couple of weeks. Need to get back to the training and go back if needed to reach my goal!
Thank you
