Since I was little accustomed to read a variety of books and then spent a cultivar grown in the healthy habit of buying them, maybe more often than necessary, proper inheritance received from my father. Despite the little study and the few possessions, he always came with something new in the world literature, Machado de Assis to the Encyclopedia Britannica. From time to time he brought a copy of the magazine or Status He and She, a kind of Playboy of the time, and I always had a way to read (?) hidden and gave me the time to remove the digital front cover with very careful that he does not understand my daring.

There were good reports in magazines, I swear.
The contradictory of all was the fact that, if possible through the dream book, just the dreams were suffocated by the discourse of our condition of life, little good in some respects and very good in others, especially the unforgettable childhood, which regardless of financial situation, it was worth being lived. It is a pity that we grow.

For various reasons, some explained, some not so, few of us were indoctrinated to dream, fly higher and go beyond where circumstances are favorable, for free will. In fact, things are happening, not always the way and want at any given time, we began to question the very existence, such is the pressure that society exerts on our fragile heads.

Throughout its existence, in some way you are pushed to pursue a dream or an ideal of life, either by self-help books, sometimes by the media with examples of their tears start in less than thirty seconds, or in some cases, by their parents when they notice that the children reach adulthood, will be accommodating and are reluctant to abandon the homemade food, the clothes always clean and well past the room neat and only for them, with the warmth of Mom, of course.

Statements like "I hate", "what am I doing here," "I do not deserve it," "I'll never get," "until I went too far," "I want enough to live" or "the money does not bring happiness" is due to circumstances for which you pass through life as mature. The bad side of these claims is that if you take them seriously, which usually takes you, they end up suffocating their self-esteem and you will believe that is true.

Teenagers know what I'm talking about. In that unforgettable season, how many times you have been awakened at the height of a dream? Wake up, creature of God! All the world of the moon? Stop dreaming, you will find something to do. This is not to your burner. Have you done the lesson home? Study, otherwise you will not be anything in life. Try to get a job. That is what makes staying up late watching television. Get the real, and so on. Therefore, it is very necessary balance to overcome the barriers that arise in our own home and mind the cost to get rid.

One of the biggest mistakes someone can make in life is stifling the self-esteem of people and, consequently, the dream. This can occur in several ways, voluntarily and involuntarily. Within families, who commit the same mistakes of the past, to interfere with the development of children, to guide the course they must do, to choose those with whom they should marry, to decide everything for them, as also were the same children mimadas of twenty years ago.

Unproductive even more is when you open hand of his dreams, and all smiling and proud, says "thank God, today you win enough to give their children everything that you did not." What nonsense! This is the minimum, but remember that the scarcity and adversity make be more humane, balanced and sociable, out of danger zone of comfort.

Under professional occurs when someone would mention the title, in loud and clear for everyone to hear, when humiliating the employee in front of colleagues when remunerates people according to color, sex, religion or sexual option, when assert the position to intimidate someone for their own benefit, whatever the benefit, or when a great employee is fully able to assume a new position, the opportunity finally appears, and a third, which has nothing to do with history, is received by the uncertainty of the head, which forgets that the ability of the leader is directly related to the amount of leaders that he helps create.

Naturally, common sense reminds me that things are much easier on paper, but dreaming is a matter of daily exercise. You imagine a better situation, calculates the distance between the current situation and desired, lists the goals to be achieved, praises their strengths and work your weaknesses, strengthen the mind and thoughts is gaining consistency. A dream is built little by little, dream a dream, action by action.

People always have a number of stupid reasons - you do not, of course - to realize the dream and stop the development when justifying their lack of action or at least try to delay it. This is commonly called the procrastination, the art of finding excuses and postpone action, a plague of modern times should be banned from the vocabulary.

To keep you alive, do not let the dream die. When the dream dies, you die with him and it is difficult to CPR it. Anyone who knows me knows how much I loathe comments like "not wait to retire to do what I really like that." Expected to retire to put into practice an idea related to your vocation will be a tremendous waste of vital energy. Chasing a dream until the end of their days is the only way to make it more active, creative and complete.

Dreaming is part of human nature and it is necessary to know each other internally, you know who really is to find the potential that it will build a better future. According to Deepak Chopra, and knowledge that is the ability to carry out all their dreams, so keep in mind that the reading of books and more books simply not enough. Stop to deceive, to read The Secret and believe that one day, so you think something will fall from the sky and present you with wonderful things you did not make the least effort to achieve.

Dreaming is good, but how would Abilio Diniz, President of Grupo Pão de Açúcar, "while dreaming of success, we woke early to get it", ie the daily practice of small consistent actions that will guide you to what you really want. I learned later to feed the dream that existed inside of me since I was a child. For a while he was off, but managed to rekindle it, and I write back to redo my way with great passion and determination.

Much you want your redemption, why split with my personal formula for that to happen and I hope to be useful. In a time when we meet, I see the smile on their lips printed from ear to ear, on account of the changes that you will be able to do on its own initiative. I took me the awareness of how I was able and very few books have helped me, so I believe in books and those who share knowledge with people.

1. Dreaming does not cost anything. Think every day, upon waking and before sleeping, you need to make a simple idea into practice. It is important that the dream is related to what you really like doing, otherwise, becomes a martyr;

2. Dreaming alone is not sufficient. List on paper what you would like to have and to hold. Is not based on John Lennon who said that "life happens while you make plans" have been shown to put goals on paper are more feasible and capable of realization;

3. Dream is to act. Small actions that determine the degree of success of their achievements and the sooner you start, the sooner they encourage their children, the greater the chance of having a dream realized in life;

4. Dreaming is good for the soul. It is better to dream than whining all the time, but do not forget to work. The discontent is the ongoing lack of confidence in itself, said Emerson, American thinker;

5. Dreaming makes us grow internally. Find the best of itself in all its achievements, is determined, have faith and patience. Take time to discover how rich we are.

Finally, turn your dreams into smaller goals. It is easier to achieve them and, most important of all that was written while the dreams do not take place, keep walking, walking, walking ...
