have you ever encountered a DREAM STEALER ? you know who he is : the one who is out there in the disguise of someone who cares for you (and sometimes they really do !) but when you tell them you'r Dream/wish/goal/etc they would tell you : thats not realistic/you will never manage to do that/that would never work/etc. and when they say that they discourage you. sometimes so hard that you give up !! and you'r dream takes one more step away from you...

Well, that is a topic I learned about a lot in the last two years. I noticed people who let the present situation prevent them from getting a little higher. The sadder situation, is the one you are talking about - people who want to take you down when you are soaring high. All you have to do in order to get over it, is to be around other people who wish to make their dreams come true, who are not afraid to tell you about their dreams. Usualy, they are also succesful people, and success is contigious... like dreaming. "There are those who dream and those who think" - with a thought you might accomplish a lot, but without the dream, there is no freedom to the thought - it is trapped. Once I looked at the Real Estate section of the newspaper, and saw a Villa that costs about 1.4 Million$. I told those around me : "I will have such a nice Villa in five years". They loughed so hard, it almost put me down. Altohugh they are people who love me so much, their thought is trapped by current reality that the loughter was like an instinct to them. I am not mad at them - I can just try and show them my way. My dreams are coming ever closer nowdays, as more and more opportunities are coming my way. As they say in "The Secret" : "When the opportunity shows itself... do not hasitate, do not have second thoughts... act...". The point is not to get angry and stay open to more opportunities that come in your way. I wish you to keep being the attractor of good things! Cheers!

oh yes.they're also usually the first ones to steal a good idea also,or take credit for something you've done. people who do this are usually to scared to take a chance and follow their own dreams.i don't let these people around me anymore.too much negativity.
