Where do your dreams go?

Remember all the dreams you had about what you would love to be when you grow up? I have a feeling not a lot of people get to live their dreams, I understand how some of these dreams may have been bound to fail because they were unrealistic to begin with (those ideas of being Catwoman when you get older was really never going to happen, was it?). With more down to earth desires however, how does it get lost?

The reality of having responsibilities to meet, and bills to pay may have driven one to take the easiest, available option with regards to making a living, but the dreams don't have to die. If you aren't totally overwhelmed with life, make a cup of tea and ponder how in your current situation you can STILL make your dream come true. Take a close look at the skills you may have acquired up to this point, therein may be something beneficial in making those steps towards your dreams easier than you thought.

Create a plan and follow it. Do some research into your career/path of interest, look at the option of further training, if needed, speak to close friends and family about it. Most importantly, feel the fire in your stomach, feel the desire to pursue your dream, if these are not present, you may just be walking in a different direction and still end up at the same destination you thought you were escaping, another dead end job with zero satisfaction.
