只有当我们真正开始做些什么的时候,梦想才会实现。先迈一小步,然后再迈一小步,随着时光的流逝,你就会为自己前进的距离惊奇不已。你向着自己梦想的方向迈的步子越多,你就越勇敢。不久,你就会看到隧道另一端的亮光了。你走得越近,梦想就越可能实现。慢慢地,你的恐惧感开始消失。迈出第一步是让人恐慌的事情。你可以选择第一步的大小和方向。有些人勇敢地面对困难,辞去重要的工作,去追求梦想。有些人则继续留在现有的岗位上,直到他们可以满意地炒老板的鱿鱼。而相对于其他人来说,这意味着转变职业道路。
无论你选择哪条道路去实现梦想,起点都是醒来,并做些什么,然后继续坚持下去。剩下的仅仅是时间问题,你终将到达目的地。
我们都有美丽的梦想,而让梦想成真的办法就是:行动起来!

16清晨最美好的愿望
A Morning Wish
佚名 / Anonymous
The sun is just rising in the morning of another day. What can I wish that this day may bring me? Nothing that shall make the world or others poorer, nothing at the expense of other men; but just those few things which in their coming do not stop me but touch me rather, as they pass and gather strength.
I wish that this day could bring me a few friends, who understand me, and yet remain my friends; I also wish that this day could bring me a work to do which has real value.
I wish that this day could bring me a mind unafraid to travel, even though the trail be not blazed, and I wish that this day could bring me an understanding heart.
I wish that this day could bring me a sight of the eternal hills, and the blue sea stretching to the horizon, and of something beautiful which the hands of me have made.
I wish that this day could bring me a sense of humor, and the power to laugh, a little leisure with nothing to do.
And I crave for a few moments of quiet, silent meditation in the morning of this day.
朝阳在新的一天冉冉升起。我期望这—天带给我什么呢?希望不是任何让世界或他人更贫穷的东西,不是任何损害别人的东西,而是那些到来、经过或者聚集力量时,不会阻止我而能触动我的心灵的东西。
我盼望这一天会带来一些知心的朋友,希望我们的友谊天长地久;我也希望这一天能够给我带来一份真正有价值的工作。
我盼望这一天会带给我无畏远行的胸怀,纵然旅途中没有光明在闪耀;我还盼望这一天会带给我善解人意之心。
我盼望这一天会让我看到永久屹立的山冈,看到一望无际的蓝色海洋,看到人类的双手创造出的美丽事物。
我盼望这—天会带给我幽默感、笑的力量和无事可做的短暂悠闲。
这天早上,我渴望短暂宁静的冥想。
每一天都是新的,每一天都充满着希望。让希望化做动力,实现我们心中最美好的梦想。
