“Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Proverbs 29:18

Do you wake up excited about the day or dreading it? Often we trudge through life without purpose—just existing. If you are passionate about achieving a goal, then life can become an exhilarating adventure.

Following are some ways that pursuing your dreams can enhance your life:

NEW PURPOSE

Excitement about a new direction in life is good for you physically, mentally, and spiritually.

NEW FRIENDS

Think of all the interesting and knowledgeable people you’ll meet on your journey. Many of them may become friends who will enrich your life.

NEW PLACES

Your quest might lead you to visit beautiful areas you never thought you’d see.

NEW KNOWLEDGE

Learning new techniques and skills will keep your brain healthy.

SERVICE

The accomplishment of your dream will inspire others to pursue theirs. Helping others achieve their goals will provide much satisfaction.

SELF-ESTEEM

The pursuit and accomplishment of your goals will boost your self-esteem. Even during times of discouragement continuing to move forward will strengthen you.

HUMILITY

Depending on God and others will keep your ego from becoming inflated. Most successful people give credit to others for helping them achieve their objectives.
