This is a very intriguing and inspiring idea….can’t wait to hear more!
Thank you, Marcia!
Its wonderful to hear from a person I really do not kn.ow but I’m very glad to be here. Thank you Marcia.
If my dreams were to come true, I would be thriving rather than just surviving. I am enjoying the book, your insights and inspiration. Thank you very much!!
Thank you. I am in the process of working to make my dreams come true. At my state in life I have a partner and making my dreams come true requires involving her in the process and how my process will assist her in the process of making her dreams come true! The result will be a new, healthy home environment, located near the sea. Financial security allowing us in our old age to continue to do the things we love albeit at a reduced pace. Working with individuals to help them overcome the “internal obstacles”that stand in the way if manifesting their dreams! Best wishes.
Thank You Marcia. If I were living my dreams, I would be living near the ocean and I would be thriving rather than just surviving on many levels.
If I were living my dream, I would be living with peace of heart and peace of mind. No longer imprisoned by shame, I would live in joy, creative and productive, facilitating the Good of All.
thank you. Your speech may have revived my desire to live, and be well
Thank you for your video and uplifting encouragement. Your energy is comforting and inspiring! I’m in the process of realizing my dreams at the moment and am both excited and focused, invigorated and happy, and a little nervous, too, about all the newness and escalation of a new set of responsibilities. Along my path of the last fifteen years or so, my life took me to experiences I had not anticipated – some beautiful, and some not so beautiful. Some of the challenges shook me to my core and sent me reeling backwards in time to places of abuse in my youth. While I didn’t drown, I barely survived, and had to revisit old issues I thought had been healed. I realized I have to take the healing to a new level. So, that’s where I’ve been the last couple of years, and all has led me to the creation of a new product for the home caregiving market and WRITING (finally). I have had a block about it for years, but have gotten through that part. Now, it’s about developing the platform, getting the books published and creating the entire business and programs to help people experience a mindset shift about home caregiving paramount to our success – all of us. I’m looking forward to watching all your videos and learning more. Again, thank you!
Great start, Already Excited!!
Great questions!
I would be living a healthy life and be an example of possibility to others. At 68 years young I have often felt that I’m too old to start something new, however, as I look back over my life it has been a journey of starting something new and re-inventing myself along the way. I am encouraged by your messages to write and tell my unique story. We all want something of value left behind when we die that says, “My life meant something.” I would be leaving a legacy of what is possible when you trust your intuition, for anyone who reads my story.
My dream has been to own a retreat center where others can learn, share and grow on many different levels. My home is a ranch retreat where we have rescued dogs, cats and horses. It has become my personal retreat and healing place.
Inspiring
I was wowed by your interview with Christine best one so far I was writing so fast I ended up with 4 pages of notes…lol Thank you so much for sharing xo
I don’t think i’d be going to another five or four long day a week social work jobs at hospitals! I would not be playing small. I would likely get certified to teach some type of creative dance or develop of brand of expressive arts dance of my own and work with children and their parents. I would be so happy to have the support of my kind partner. I would be leading groups based on my books and receive input from all over the world about how helpful they were. I would consider how to be of service to the Faith that empowers my soul, and devote a good amount of time to this. I would give speeches. I would have all my books edited and published in some form or another. I would not long or be concerned about if I could finish all I could in my lifetime, but would prioritize and do each one! I would share more insites in articles for social workers. I would help my daughter be comfortable and have more of her living needs for transportation and living space and et cetera met. I would refine my calling and focus on the most important of these matters while giving the gifts which might also be of service to others. I would be open for my novel to be fully edited, published, printed in multiple countries, and turned into an opera or movie or pilot for a tv show. I would see it in metaphysical book stores and other venues. I may want to share a message system for reducing shame in a bi-daily format. I would have Feng Shui or organizer and housekeeping as much as needs be, and wear interesting work of art type of clothes. And, of course, my car would be lovely, and I would be living in a place of breathe deep nature. I would be more loving, compassionate and confident day by day, moment by moment and so fulfilled from living from my true gifts and talents. i would be assisted by competent, sweet people who shared my vision. I would dance daily or three times a week in my or other classes. I would share the gorgeousness of how movement can heal with others. I would do stand-up, or fold humor into my presentations. I would have calligraphy color markers
in all colors, and beautiful papers and take a creative calligraphy/art class. This or something more joyful and integral to me. Thank you for helping me, Marcia, have a place to feel what dreams are bubbling in my stream.
I will be building our dream home with a house for my Mom decorated like her home now. With twenty hour care as she needs it.
I will be a published author, a successful artist, coach and a worldwide speaker with seminars.
I do know that I have the power.. I know there is a way to access the power of creation. I know I will find the way over the upcoming weekend.
It would mean breaking free from the chackels of my past and continue a mission to lead others to achieve their deams as well!
Realizing my Dream totally Invigorates me!!
It is great too get back into having my passion in life.
oooh!!! this would mean peace to me due to the fact that i keep having a vision of up lifting falling humanity through multiple projects building self sufficient communities rooted in love truth peace freedom and justice .the way i see it as long as i am doing the creators work not only will i live a life in abundance but my childrens childrens will live it also… claiming and receiving that…
my intention today 9-18-15 is to watch these Dream series with Marcia, then share them with my friends and followers … #letsSeewhathappens 😉
I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE MY UNDERSTANDING AND CURE FOR ALZHEIMER’S
To fully realize I had the capacity to make my dreams a reality, I would feel my life’s purpose COULD and WOULD be fulfilled and attained. I would feel an enormous sense of relief, and lightness and joy would permeate my being. RELIEF would be the strongest emotion because the sense of urgency to fulfill my life’s purpose coupled with paralysis has been eating away at my soul, and I would see not only the possibility but the certainty that the paralysis could and would be lifted and I could and would make a true difference in the world in the way I know I was put here to do.
I would attain my ultimate potential and I would also be in complete happiness and abundance in life with those around me to aspire and help them! My life would change by extremely and complete understanding that my lifes purpose was to understand my dreams and live them and forever be in a position to have whatever I want whenever I want and that everything I want I should be able to have!!
Currently working as the Minister of Mental Health at City of Refuge United Church of Christ in Oakland been in that position 5 years after having been a mental health consumer myself with PTSD (retired military served in both the Army and Air Force) and also Bi-Polar issues. Am about to start on January 11, 2016 as a Chaplain at Fremont Kaiser in Fremont CA. Am looking forward to ordination with the United Church of Christ in Nov/Dec 2016. I am presently involved as a coach with Natalie Ledwell and the Ultimate Success Masterclass Coaching Program. Looking forward to becoming certified with Marcia in just a few weeks. Recently attended “Never Work Again” in Palm Desert CA where I met Marcia and signed up for the program. Will be posting my 10 dreams as my WOW this week. What it would mean to accomplish my biggest dreams? I would be UNSTOPPABLE. I am already a FAITH (Factual Accurate Information That’s Holy) leader but I believe after completing this course and through continuing to work with Marcia there are limitless possibilities and that I have limitless potential. Whoo-Hoo here we go dreamers.
I would feel that I am not leaving just to eat , sleep and work !
I would be the happiest person on earth and the most loving mother,grandmother,sister,friend
and partner. I would write and speak to audiences sharing with them my experiences in order to
inspire ,motivate and give hope.I would be a Better person having realised my purpose and
living an abundant life.
If I knew my dreams would come true, which I’m pretty sure they will, I would dream of:
1. Being a woman of God in all I do
2. A loving, encouraging and compassionate mom that empowers her children to love well, to dream, and to make those dreams a reality.
3. Having a thriving non-profit ministry that serves women who are affected by human trafficking
4. Develop a health coaching business that helps moms & makes $100,000 year.
I would feel more like I was living my purpose. I would feel more financially stable and I would be proud of myself.
To make my dreams come true I need to spend more time taking productive action rather than non productive worrying.
If I knew I had the capacity it would probably feel less overwhelming and I would feel successful and happy. I would also have more freedom with fewer financial problems.
If my dreams came true… I think the biggest value would come from the confidence and satisfaction of knowing that I DID IT! I would also experience the financial freedom that would allow my family to travel, experience the world, and learn new things. Most importantly, I would show my kids that you truly CAN create a sustainable life by pursuing your passions. I have a hard time believing this myself most days, but somewhere deep, deep down, I know it just HAS to be. I’m excited to take this first step in getting there.
Making my dreams come true would mean living on purpose all the time. Making decisions from my heart and intuition instead of not moving forward due to lack of confidence, money or fear. Living on purpose would mean I would be joyful and contagiously energetic as well as excited, all the time. Excited about life, what I’m doing, (whatever I am doing), and about the awesome people I interact with. I can’t wait to have the passion and excitement of living back as I learn to realize my dreams can come true.
It would be scary. That I can have things that are nice. That I can go places I wish. That I can give whenever I can. I feel that I could have all the things I imagine. I can imagine being useful and important and effective.
To be happy with my life
have a happy family be successfull in business have a lot of friends
I do believe that my dream is already becomong true. That fact is what led me to your website. I know my purpose, I have a clear dream of what I want my life to be and I have done a ice-breaker project , now on a major project to my dream. Achieving my dream in totality will give me the liberty to advance through the rest of my life in a more effective way on all levels; family, financially, socially and professioanlly.
Making my dreams come true this round would mean that I would achieve all my dreams without compromising on my other values. I know how to be successful but that was based on being a workaholic. If I knew I could make it all come true, I would only work 2 hours a day in giving service (consulting), and spend the rest of my day developing myself and maintaining other areas of my life, living in better balance, and have abundant streams of income and be fit and agile, and have yummy time with a tribe of likeminded professionals! I would also be productive in writing, publishing, teaching, community outreach and building, and designing custom bags for a very select customer base, as well as create patronage programs for fine artists who deserve sponsorship and public celebration. It would also mean that I know how to be committed yet flexible. Both structured and spontaneous. Responsible but not consumed by duty.
To make my dreams come true would mean living daily with a strong convictions that I’m using all my skills, knowledge, talents to enjoy life to the max and contributing to the world at the same time. To dedicate my time to very specific projects that I get to choose instead of what other people are imposing on me. Choosing the people that I want to be with, and on activities that reflect my top values in life. Having a balance life spiritually, mentally, physically, socially, with familly, financially, and career. Also create a speaking business where I talk to audiences about how to make their dreams come true. I love self-development and I’ve seen how powerful changes can be made if you put in the effort on growing personally daily, and the things that are possible if you go for it.
My intention is to connect to my dreams again and commit myself to the dream
I love this, it really makes you think that anything is possible. ..a great mind set for everyone. .
