1. Talents Are Over-Rated

People who succeeded are not necessarily the most talented but those who put in the most effort to hone their skills and preserve in the face of challenges to work towards their dreams. We cannot rely on our talents alone. Whatever talents that we possess, we still need to practice, practice and practice in order to become better.

3. Failure is Not Permanent

In the pursuit of our dreams, we are bound to encounter failures, setbacks and challenges. However, while failure is an option, giving up is not. We need to embrace failures, learn from our mistakes and move on. Failure is a learning opportunity while challenges and difficulties will make us stronger.

4. Put In The Motion

We need hard work and perseverance to achieve our dreams. Success will not drop on our laps and we need take actions on a daily basis. We cannot rely on our feelings to get things done because our feelings do up and down. Therefore, regardless of our feelings, we need to put in the motion and take action. We maybe very tired or upset and do not feel like practicing at all but we put in the motion and practice anyway. And when we put in the motion and practice today, we are making it easier for us to practice tomorrow. In the words of Nike, “Just Do It”.

5. Follow Your Bliss

It makes sense that our dreams should involve things that we love or are passionate about. These are things that we truly enjoy doing and we derived much pleasure from doing them. Chasing after our dreams is so much easier if we follow our bliss.
