Be Persistent  "The greatest challenge in life is sometimes learning to believe in yourself".  R. E. Smith. Don't waste your time trying to accomplish someone's idea. Instead use your time to chase after your dreams and become a Dream Chaser. Oftentimes individuals put aside their dreams and goals because they were introduced to an idea by a friend or colleague. Putting your time and effort into accomplishing another person's idea will result in you "killing your dreams". Let me make this perfectly clear, there is nothing wrong with helping others to accomplish their goals and aspiration because our aim should always be to assist others to grow and develop but try not to sacrifice your dreams chasing a vision that does not align with your plans. For the purpose of this lesson we will examine who is a Dream Chaser and six ways to accomplish our dreams.

 Each life is Sacred Our lives are made up of countless experiences and like all living things, we pass through various stages of growth and development. Many scholars and medical practitioners argue over the exact moment when life begins. Though this is important it may not be the easiest thing to argue because it is subjected to countless opinions and views. Nonetheless, let us examine a few perspectives put forward by individuals and religions about life and when it truly begins. What is Life?  Life is often referred to as the essence of our being that innermost part that makes up our state of consciousness. It takes into account our spiritual, physical, and emotional development. These are the qualities that separate us from other species and this is what it means to be human.

The age of technology is thrust upon us and we have no alternative but to rise to the occasion and face the issues of this challenging and revolutionary period in human history. The Digital Renaissance is unfolding and the laws of adaptability will once more play a vital role in shaping our existence.

  Your dreams matter Our degree of success hinges on our ability to work and push ourselves beyond the threshold of life by rising above the superficial barriers that are set for us to accomplish. This is done by using our various skills and talents to unlock our full potential. I recently wrote that "Success is a habit it captivates the mind and manifest into actions" and indeed they do because it is our actions that will be measured to indicate our success. The actions we demonstrate while on route to success is so driven and goal-oriented that we often need to sacrifice and give up our own desires in an effort to pursue our passion. Our accomplishments are based on careful calculations and navigation in order to climb the success ladder. To achieve our goals we must become tour guides of our destiny and once the desires are achieved the need is often satiated. Follow me into the realm of success and let us navigate the currents of achievement to understand how suc
