You are not only responsible for what you say, but also for what you do not say.
Martin Luther
We say lots of things. We think lots of things, but we forget to take stock of all of the things we do not say and ultimately do not do. Every yes is a no to something else, and vice versa. This is important because we can double the possibilities of attaining our dreams. We can double down on what we say we are going to do and watch very closely what we don’t say what we are going to do.
We need to watch our language and the language of others. The words we use reveal a great deal about the truth of what we mean. If you say that you’re busy or that you’ll try, or that you’ll know when you see it, perhaps that is the reason you don’t get anywhere.
Try instead to say and dream of things that don’t exist. I know you don’t believe yourself worthy or capable. This seems to be the human condition, but you are bigger than that. Your dreams are bigger than that. You need to say the things you don’t dare to say so that other people can hear you, and so that God can send you angels to help you.
Say what you mean and mean what you say, but don’t sabotage your efforts by calling yourself stupid, prognosticating inevitable failure, and staying down far longer and deeper than you need to.
Dreams are built on what you do no say. What you don’t do. The little things we think are not important but are far more important than we care to believe.
Never criticize yourself, only criticism the effort or the outcome. Never quit, but always take a deep breath, give yourself time, and get at it again. Don’t look at others, how many followers they have, how likeable they are, focus on you because there is enough for everybody. Their success does not mean your inevitable failure. But thinking you’re going to fail will only bring about that what you think about.
So think of things that seem impossible. Work relentlessly for your dreams. Encourage others to do the same. Pay attention to the things you don’t say. Speak up. Speak up often. Don’t worry about being wrong, or being foolish because many people are simply afraid to face what is deep inside of them.
Face your fears. Face your greatness and listen to the universe for what you should do next. Fail over and over again. Get up over and over again. Listen attentively to what you don’t say. Observe what you don’t do. Hear every yes and hear every no. Hear everything. Be patient, kind and loving to yourself. Dreams live in the unseen. Dream makers go unnoticed.
Until they aren’t.
