A Man Without a Dream...

I think most people if not all have dreams. But I also think that what matters more is what we do to reach those dreams. I believe that a person without a dream is a person who is down on the streets walking going nowhere. A dream should be a goal for us that we would want to reach. There are a lot of people here in our place who does not seem to have a dream. My dad hired some workers as it's working season here in our place now. He's got a worker, who, after earning around $15 just get his salary and did not work. He chose to drink beer and gin the whole night and day. I don't get it. THey just work a little and when have some money would just drink and ruin their body. I think we should have dreams but reasonable ones. Then let's reach those dreams or goals. Only that way our life would have direction. The life of a man without dreams or goals is nothing. That's just the truth.

I must agree with you. I know some people too who don't have dreams or goals in their lives. But I chose not to see them that way. I think we don't have the right to judge. I mean maybe that is just the way they want to live. Maybe they are happy with their lives. If they are happy, we don't have anything to do to change them. It's their decision. I think it's best to go on with our lives and just focus on our own dreams and goals rather than talk about why other people don't have their own ambitions.

hi, i think every people have their own dreams to their life,even it is small or big dreams in life,i still remembered when i was a child i had many dreams until now that i grew up,for me those people who dont have a dream or dont want to dream is a person who never know where he/she go,.a person never know what path of his/her life to take.

So I am nothing? I have no goals or dreams. Ah, I suppose you are right. Perhaps I am nothing.

I agree. Dreams and reaching for our dreams keep us going. Even when times are bad still you keep in your minds dreams and saying to your self that you will do it because you deserve it! I work so hard to achieve my dreams and I have them in mind every morning when I question my self why I do what I do. The answer is only one. To achieve my dreams. Also I think that person without dreams in burn out and not happy.

I think it is important to have goals that lead you to your dream. People who don't have dreams are chaotic and don't have directioning. You have to have a goal in mind to make life interesting. Life can be very boring if you don't have a direction in mind and you can feel very lost.

Thats the fact! Anyones life without ambition is life without meaning. One should have a goal and real meaning of life is working hard and smart for it and I like to work for my dreams. Its so sad to people waste the life without targets!

Well, there are many successful people who would suggest that you dream as high as possible... and try to reach it by making a step daily. As for me, I have too many dreams that I don't know which one to follow...

I think every human being should have dreams, desires, wants and needs to be fulfilled. It gives determination, motivation and courage to achieve something good for ourself and others. Set up reasonable goals to work towards. Enjoy the success when they are accomplished.

I read somewhere in past that "a man without dreams is like a boat without oar". If a man has no dreams then he will have no guidance, no fight in the life. Everything will seem dull to him. Life minus ambition is no life at all. You are correct that the thing which matters the most that what you do to achieve your dreams. Well it also depends on how you do those things to achieve your dreams. Its a never ending process. once you achieve your dream then also you won't be able to sleep properly because you will have a next dream in queue.

a man without a dream is an unlucky one. that`s mean he do not have clear targets in his life. that is useless for himself and others. and he does not enjoy the life. but he suffers the life. how can a man can live without a dream. that is impossible. that life is a dark room he had to live in.

A man without a vision will perish, meaning they don't have any goals to keep in their life so they would just go on with their life and do anything without any purpose at all. As what you said, it will be wasted because they don't have certain goals to achieve.

I agree.People just seem to walk around in a daze and forget their dreams along the way.Its important for us to keep our dreams alive and work toward them.

Hello Banny, Yes i do agree with the fact one should see dreams and he should work in the direction to fulfill it.There are people who see the dreams and don't work towards it. Its bad for that worker one should not think that today he has money then he should enjoy and think tomorrow for tomorrow but its wrong we should think of tomorrow also today as there is no certainty that we will get work tomorrow.

Yes, even i too believe that its good that we have dreams but reasonable ones. I have come across few people who dream a lot are more ambitious about their career or future or what ever may be of their kind. By dreaming about about their future career they get motivated and increase their zeal in fulfilling or achieving their goal at the earliest.
