Live Your Dreams

Kick your shoes off, run through the sand, feel the breeze blow on your face while the sun warms you skin ever so gently. Sometimes, it just feels good to think about all the things we would rather be doing than what we really are doing. Have you ever just sat and daydreamed? You may say, If I get caught daydreaming at work, I'll get fired. I hear you loud and clear!! Our world has no place for dreamers. We are discouraged to take the time or lavish ourselves in that wonderful fantasy place we call dreamland.

Here is how I have resolved to spend some extra time this year and I want to see if the idea seems good to you as well. Three times a day...pick 15 minutes...break time, lunch time, whenever. Then go somewhere that will allow you to completely relax and get caught up in your good thoughts, your good dreams for the future, away from the problems of the day, week or month. Erase them for the moment and just be "in the moment"...enjoying where you have traveled off to. Don't spend the 15 minutes deciding what to think about. Do that at the beginning of the day or before you take your break. If you think you may go to sleep or run over 15 minutes, learn to set a timer, have a friend call you on the cell and lay it on your chest.

Here are some really great ideas for dreaming if you don't have any, use mine until you do:)

• Test driving a new car, motorcycle, speed boat...
• riding a wave on a surf board or riding a skateboard
• sitting under a tree and watching the sun go down
• splashing your feet off the dock
• basking in the sun on the sand
• sitting in the sauna then diving into the pool
• climbing the highest peak and looking over the land
• hang gliding with the eagles
• rollerskating down the street in the early morning watching the sun come up
• perched on the porch reading the paper with coffee in hand
• listening to your favorite music with your eyes closed and a headset on
