True Vision

There are moments we may capture that have so much significance they will alter the course of our lives. These are the times our instincts tell us that we have to act no matter the consequences, they are the moments that create a vision. Unlike a dream which may show us where we want to be, a vision shows us where we will be, its power is in the fact that we can see it constantly.

Those who have a true vision know they can never relinquish it, once seen it is never forgotten, and the goal has to be accomplished however difficult the journey. We may take a lifetime to see our vision materialise, but that lifetime will have been filled with purpose, focus, and determination, and it will doubtless leave a lasting legacy of inspiration to others.

If the building of a dream is based upon the foundation of reality, then its success will depend on nothing more than determination

Our Goal

Clear these idle thoughts and look beyond
For there lies the object of our desire
Shifting like a mirage in the sand
It waits shimmering without form this restless goal

Sliding back and forth
Teasing, tempting, offering, taking away
It knows our strength
And keeps to the boundary

Focus is its only enemy
For if defined and captured as a lasting image
It will offer itself up as the ultimate prize
Rewarding not only the challenge but also the spirit.

If we have the vision and imagination to dream, we need only the inspiration and determination to succeed.

Defining Moment

There comes a time in everyone’s life which they may call their defining moment, it is the moment that separates the past from the future in a momentous way. Often this moment does not become apparent until sometime after it has passed, but its effect is such that it can be charted exactly on reflection. Drawing conclusions from a lifetime of experience that enables us to change direction, and perhaps our destiny, can make this moment the most important in our lives, it is therefore the moment that will define who we are, and how we wish to be for the remainder of our lives.

If we can recognise and fully appreciate this transition as it is happening, we will add to its momentum and outcome, it is far better to direct our own destiny than have others do it for us. As the subconscious moves to the conscious, so our dream moves closer to reality and our defining moment becomes imprinted on our mind.

A NEW YEAR

We can sail into a new year with a new horizon or drift into it without a defined course, either way the wind of change will affect our lives one way or the other. We can either adapt to change or make the change, be reactive or proactive, follow the trend, or set a new one, live in the world we were given, or create the one we want.

Let our hopes and desires be the catalyst for the determination required to achieve them.

Believe in yourself, and you can believe in your world !

It is the dawning of a new day
The brilliance of a new vision
The determination of a new goal
The presence of a new inspiration

It is the spark of a new flame
The beating of a new heart
The opening of new eyes
The generation of a new spirit
 It is the realisation of a new me
