When Others Laugh at Your Dreams…..JUST DO!

August 9, 2014 Off By Donna Wuerch

It’s “par for the course” that pessimists laugh and ridicule those who step out and believe in something that’s never been done before. Often, those negative thinkers become the driving force for DREAMERS to DO and say, “Just watch me!” Think of where we’d be today were it not for dreamers? Dreaming big is what brought us to this day of technology, living in comfort and ease, enjoying conveniences that make life streamlined, traveling to destinations at record speeds, and finding cures for deadly diseases.

Hmmm! Those thoughts sure do make me optimistic about the future because of all you dreamers out there who will keep dreaming and doing and giving us more and more innovations. We can thank those dreamers for just in the last 50 years, we no longer have to get up from the couch to turn the channel on the TV — thanks to dreamers for the remote! And, for the microwave, the jet airliner, cordless tools and electronics, satellite communications, mobile phones, the computer, video games, smoke detector, the ATM machine, GPS, etc.

Let’s start dreaming big! And, if there are those who laugh at us today — they’ll probably be thanking us one day soon!
