Day 070

Dear dreamer,

Cover up

A brief one. Your mind is the biggest weapon you have. How much do you protect it? Do you handle it carelessly. Keep your heart with all diligence because out of it are the issues of life. Truer words than this has never existed. You should guard it diligently and watch what little or large thing goes in or comes out. One thing that I have realised is that when striving endlessly, positivity is a supply you should not run out of. Positivity will help you to keep trying again for as long as needed. The journey can be tiring but if you will keep coming back with more strategy, it's all in your mind. 

There was a time that I could not hold out for this long. If I was told that I would keep up for this long. I would have bet otherwise. If you will give up or continue when it gets hard, it all starts in the mind, the thoughts. They are the powerful tools that you can use to shape yourself better for the new fights each time they come up. You have to keep being happy and positive that all of the work you were putting in were going to be worth it someday. The moment you find it hard to believe that you were not wasting your time, give up the idea. 

Happiness or hopelessness was a thing of the mind. Physically, I'm in pains but my heart is happy and excited. I could hardly focus on it but the new optimism that I found. Your heart is your entire essence. Don't be careless and let worms get in. 

Utilise this your chance to live your dreams in the best way possible.

Day 001

Dear dreamer, Thoughts and more Thoughts... This is not your typical 'my life story'- only it possesses elements of it. The most daring thing about this is that I am just going with the flow (whatever that means) . I know not what the end will be, only dare hope it is good just like I think. Everyone always say "Dream" and it is only so hard to do so. They never tell you about the hopelessness in dreaming when you are penniless- which is the initial state of every dreamer. They do not want to discourage you so they omit it from every literature or maybe it is just difficult to describe which is what I want to describe so you can almost feel it... For any dreamer who is a vast reader and learner, the best way to start is to borrow wisdom from from great writers and people who have trailed this path before. From all I could gather, one stood painfully practical; 'Do not focus on what you do not have...but what you need  and find your way to it using what you have...

Day 002

Dear dreamer,  Questions...lots of questions Lethargy...I could literally feel it like a gentle caress lulling me back to comfort-very deceptively destructive state. I started the long, arduous process of shaking it off simply because I have this one chance to live my dreams and I won't screw it up as far as it is up to me.  I started the day wondering if my ideas were good. There were a lot of questions;  Can I pull it off?  I might need help so I called out to my close confidant. I read about something called a kitchen cabinet- it is a couple of people that are literally your guide rails. They keep you accountable, you can ask them questions about anything. Well, they are supposed to be comforting enough yet honest to call you up on your faults without mincing words. I started building mine then so I reached out to the one who I can say is the chief of my cabinet. I ran the ideas by him, he did not have much of an opinion just a lot of questions about the idea and ...

Day 004

  Dear dreamer,  Life Of A Penniless Dreamer I don't know about others but being idle makes me so uncomfortable. Like, I must always be doing something valuable, meaningful, something that is felt but, as it was, I was just waking up in the past few days to nothing but absolute emptiness. Of course, I did some mundane chore but it moved nothing so I was dissatisfied and wondering what exactly I could do- something effortless enough but impactful. Not like I did not have things to do, in fact I had deadlines to meet but I was in low spirits so I had no motivation nor intention and I have learnt to not force some things. Quality dwindles. Poor quality with so much effort. There is something I do from time to time, no fixed time frame but I just organise it as it feels. It's a self-reflection exercise. During the exercise, I just simply review all of my plans and see how much progress I made- sometimes it is depressing, other times it lifts my spirit. It's just to make sure I ...
