Living Your Dreams. Lesson One: Tenacity
Paloma has the best story on her blog right now. In short, it tells of a woman who wanted a home so badly that she continued to try to buy it even though someone had just purchased the property. Angie, the dream chaser in question, relentlessly "reminded" the owners for the better part of a year that if they decided the home wasn't their dream home - it surely was hers. Today? She's living the sweet life in her dream home.
Sometimes "no" is just the first part of someone saying "not now"...so keep trying. Keep pursuing. Keep at it. Don't ever, ever give up if you truly want to achieve something.
Tell me, what are you letting stand in the way of your dreams?









Isn't it a great story? I felt so inspired when I read it.
