Did you ever have to give up some dream?

March 24, 2017 5:33pm CST
I never had to give up a dream properly, but before turning some of them into reality, I had to leave them in "standby mode" for a few years. At the time it was kind of frustrating, because things did not go the way I had planned, but everything ended well. How about you?

I have some plans that need to be in pending mode. Now, I am still chasing some my dreams.

I think it is OK for me to give up some of my dreams because I have to be responsible for my family. And I can't do whatever I like and ignore them.

@youless That's a good thought.

Some dreams just take a lot longer to come true than others. As long as all is well in the end, that is what counts.

I think there are always going to be a few dreams on hold due to the cost of doing them. I want to visit Hawaii and Alaska, which could be expensive to do both of them.

yea i wanted to be a dr. but had to change my dream, but im happy to change it, due to i like to go out, give time to family and do work in writing, so if i was a dr. i will not have time as i like for all these things. so sometimes it happens for your benefit, im glad that im not a dr. though i can go back and study it

Yes, in this time I haven't still achieved what I want, it demands time and more perseverance. Dreams to achieve should be in a serious scheme, even if we have failed don't blame someone. Looking for the causes and correct the mistakes is very helpful for us who wants to reach the dream. I am still attached to my dream and I will do it soon.
