Marcia's Dream Note

Dear Fellow Dreamers,

How would your life change if you really believed in your dreams? One of the most essential tools to master in the dream process is your ability to have faith and believe in yourself and your dreams. Without it, we often second guess or even sabotage our dreams. Sometimes we even kill off what we want before we explore the possibilities. Develop self-trust and you'll find strength and courage to support you on any dream. This is one of the core silks I will teach at my upcoming Create Your Future Now Dream Weekends in San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Baltimore or Boston. I invite you to join me.

Dream Big,

Building Self Trust

Trust allows your dream to happen, while lack of trust can stop your dreams cold. When you don't trust, dreams become difficult, blocked, stuck or even fall apart. You start to doubt--first your decisions, and eventually everything. You may start to compromise on your dream. In your best attempt to control the outcome, you may be the very one who unknowingly sabotages your own vision.

When you are aware of the doubts, fears and limiting beliefs, you can stop for a moment and regain some clarity. Start by asking yourself what stories you might be making up that could disempower your dream. What are you not trusting, and why? How can you move this obstacle, this mistrust out of your way? Get clear about what you don't trust and get to the core of it. Failing to do so can cost you your dream.

Practice trust by choosing to be more committed to your dream and creating empowering beliefs. Do you trust yourself and others? Do you trust the process, your environment, the universe, the timing? Do you trust that your dream will come true? Trust is a giant obstacle for many people. If you don't have it, you'll have to find it, and you'll have to practice trusting yourself above all. Trust the decisions you make, and believe that you're entitled to want your dream and to realize it.

When it comes to making dreams come true, I don't know any other way to build self-confidence and self-trust, other then to give your dream all you've got and actually take action. I am a woman of great faith, but on a day-to-day level I, too, forget to trust. My daily practice is to act on what I believe in in order to build greater self-trust. How do you build trust? I'd love to hear.
