Does your big dream require perfection? Excellence not easy to do, but if you want to obtain some support for your big dream, you’ll need to share it with others and being remarkable needs to be your standard.
re·mark·a·ble – adjective 1. worthy of attention; striking.
You can’t teach someone to strive for perfection when launching their dream. To dream big and find success, you must strive for more than where you are right now. Excuses for less than your best simply won’t cut it–you must want your dream to be remarkable. Otherwise, you’ll lose interest right away.
To make your dream come true, you must practice at it every day by exploring what you need to do next, following some basic rules of your trade (not all of them, mind you), and consistently perfecting your craft.
I am saddened when someone’s big dream stalls due to a lack of caring. So I think some quotes are in order to help you ponder whether you are giving this dream of yours your very best.
