Who put an age limit on dreams? When are you suppose to stop pursuing your dreams and start "acting like an adult?" Its sad that society's definition of acting like an adult often means jumping into mainstream, doing what everyone else does and not rocking boat. You get a "good job," you bring in a steady pay check and you never ever EVER do anything risky like start your own business or quit "good job" you hate, or go back to school to start a new career.

I am particularly fond of a quote by Mark Twain. He says, "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by things you didn't do than by ones you did do. Sail away from safe harbor. Catch trade winds in our sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

Ask you inner child what he or she wants to be when they grow up. I dare you.

4. Believe in your vision. You cannot draw it to you if you don't believe it can be done. Having faith in yourself as a creator is an important step. It may be necessary to sort through your beliefs to discover your creative patterns. A thorough examination of your thoughts and beliefs may be necessary to bring you to complete faith in yourself as a creator. As you examine your thought patterns who will begin to see how they have shaped every event in your life.

5. Adopt an attitude of gratitude.

There is no creative force more powerful than gratitude. A grateful mind can hold no doubt and a grateful heart is wide open to receive bounty of universe. Grateful people see miracles everywhere and opportunity in every apparent challenge.

6. Become intimate with your inner guidance system.

It is important to familiarize yourself with and pay attention to your inner guidance. Your inner guide uses feelings to communicate to you. Your feelings tell you whether you are aligned with your desires or not. If you are feeling good, you are in harmony with your desires. Negative feelings are telling you your thinking is aligned with fear and doubt. It is most important to pay close attention to what you are thinking when you are experiencing negative emotion. Negative feelings indicate you are creating in opposition to your desires.

7. Open your channel to receive.

The final step is to open yourself to infinite bounty of universe. We are only ever cut off from this wondrous flow by pinching off supply ourselves. The flow is ever present. The question is how wide is your tap open? Is it shut off completely or just letting in a trickle? Or perhaps it is wide open and you are reaping rewards of a conscious, happy life.
