Turning Dreams into Reality- There is day dreaming, imagining throughout the day, then visiting what the future might look like. Use it, all, your HOPES + DREAMS as a TARGET.
Dreams can be an escape from reality or a foundation for a New Reality- Can't change your life unless you can imagine a new reality.
"Discipline of Dreams"
Clarify them, evaluate them, and move them from the stage of imagination to action.
"Dream Scale"
FANTASY concepts which are impossible to achieve + highly unrealistic
DREAM concepts which are potentially achievable but where only the positive aspects are seen
VISION concepts which are achievable at a stage where the downsides + difficulties come into focus. At this stage, you are willing to challenge your assumptions. You are not afraid to understand the costs, limitations, and work required, as well as your chances of success. And for those who are going to be successful, this feels like just the beginning. (Sigh, Heck yea. Just a little overwhelming)
GOALS A specific realistic objective. At this stage you give yourself Clear, Practical Targets for achieving your vision. You understand how much you can -and cannot- achieve, you begin to put numbers + dates to your ambitions.
PLANS A step-by-step outline of how you are going to achieve your goals. This is where you determine how to make your vision a reality. LIST ACTIONS ITEMS, MILESTONES, and ACTIVITIES. And then go to work!
Priorities need time to play itself out.
