Never Give Up On Your Dreams
Never give up on your dreams, no matter what you’re facing right now. We all have a strongly desired dream or goal, but how often do we make them come true?
When I was just a boy, early in my teens, I had grand plans with the feeling of ecstasy without any limitations.
However, when I grow a little older, and after hitting obstacles and failures, I stop believing in my dreams and the flavour to achieve them. I have survived rejection and discouragement from friends. What are your ideal goals, plans, and visions?
You may have decided to achieve something and start working on it with full focus and dedication. You are making progress at it, but you didn’t get the outcome as expected. I know what it feels like when your planned ideas hit the fence of failure.
Why You Should Never give Up On Your Dreams
A negative thought will arise to devour your dreams. “I’m putting a lot of money and time into it but, I’m still not getting results. Let me quit and try something else.” Never give up on your dreams no matter how hard it gets. But you have to:
Take Failures As An Opportunity
Successful people fail far more often than unsuccessful people. They try more things, fall, pick themselves up, and try again- over and over again before they finally win.
Unsuccessful people try a few things, face an obstacle, and quickly quit and go back to what they were doing before. Most people don’t pursue their dreams for fear of failure. Little do they know, this is one of the most significant ways we learn and grow!
It would be best if you look upon failure and temporary defeat as part of the price you pay on the road to the success you desire.
Besides, nobody goes into business to fail. However, to find profound, long-lasting success, you must learn to anticipate failure and own it when it happens. Every failure includes nuggets of success if you look for them, and how you tackle failures or mistakes determines whether or not to give up on your dreams. Successful people think about solutions most of the time.
Learn from the eagle when it faces a storm. Fearlessly, the eagle would fly into the fierce winds, using the storm current to rise higher quickly. The storm’s pressure is used to help them drift without their energy.
LESSON: No plan is perfect the first time it is created. Expect difficulties as a part of the process to succeed and resolve to respond to them effectively.
Think About The Sacrifices You’ve Made.
Measure the sacrifices you’ve made so far; with all the late-night sleep, are you willing to walk away from this hustling because you’re not feeling confident in your abilities?
Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements. -Napolean Hill
How eager are you to achieve your goals? Think of how you started and where you intended to go from there. The starting point of all dreams is desire.
Giving Up Is Not An Option-Never!
There are many reasons why people want to give up on their dreams. First of all, the fear of failure, poverty, loss, or rejection holds most people from trying to achieve anything new in life.
The primary obstacles between you and your goals are usually mental. Ask yourself, what is it in me that is holding me back? Look deep within yourself and identify the critical factors in your personality, skills, habits, education, or experience that might be frightening you to give up.
When we give up on ourselves, we are not only giving up on what we’re working towards, but we’re also giving up on everything we stand for.
Reasons You Should Never Give Up On Your Dreams
- When we give up, we’re telling ourselves that we are not good enough to achieve the things we want.
- We tell ourselves that we’re not willing to fight and work for what we want to achieve.
- Our dreams will only remain dreams instead of becoming the realities they were meant to be.
- It encourages the habit of “giving up”- the cycle repeats.
- You never know what your dream could be-it may change someone’s life.
A day will come where you will either be satisfied that you lived your life to the fullest, or you will look back with regret, wishing you would have done more with the precious time you had.
Never give up; today is hard, tomorrow will be worse, but the day after tomorrow, there will be sunshine. – Jack Ma
Again, I Tell You: Never Give Up On Your Dreams
If you know your passion and have the opportunity to do it in your life, relationship, or work, climbing the ladder of success will be a lot easier. How badly do you want to achieve it? What are you doing to accomplish these dreams?
The clearer you become about these goals and dreams, the more often you think about them, the more likely you will attain them.
“Without passion, you don’t have energy. Without energy, you have nothing.” -Warren Buffett.
Passion is essential for long-term success and overall happiness. If you give up on your dreams, you’re living a life unfulfilled. Live a life with purpose, and you will never be weary.
Most people give up on their dreams before making the first try because they didn’t blend them with passion. That shouldn’t be you!

“Don’t be afraid to assert yourself, have confidence in your abilities, and don’t let the bastards get you down.” –Michael Bloomberg.
Get Past Your Naysayers
Dreams are quintessential for entrepreneurs, and you will achieve them with determination. Whenever you look to progress beyond the norm, either personally or professionally, there will be those who attempt to discourage you.
People are intimidated by others who set out to do things they don’t feel are possible or know are possible but didn’t try or fail at themselves. These people could be your relatives, best friends, spouse, colleague, or even your boss.
Negative people will terminate your dreams with negative words like:
- “You will fail! There is already too much competition in your field or niche.”
- “That’s impossible!” “You could never do that.”
- “That doesn’t seem like a good idea.”
Sometimes it is vital to forbid other people’s negative thoughts because those words and attitudes can be poisonous. Hopelessness can spread quickly- if all you keep hearing is negative words, sooner or later, you will convince yourself that your dreams won’t work.
“Surround yourself only with people who are going to take you higher.” – Oprah Winfrey.
Don’t Give Up! Prove Your Naysayers Wrong
Be your best self: Every time you blame someone else or make excuses, you give your power away. You feel weakened and diminished. “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent” – Eleanor Roosevelt.
Stop talking about your plans to small-minded people. They won’t believe what you tell them but rarely think about what you show them. Learn from others. Work hard on your dreams.
“The greatest lesson that I learned in all of this is that you have to start. Start now, start here, start small, and keep it simple.” – Jack Dorsey.
You either work on your dreams, or you keep on dreaming. Dreamers are those who do nothing but imagine and float through life without a plan or purpose. However, you have to work hard to make your dreams a reality.
