60 Inspiring Dreams Quotes To Help You Create A Life You Love

Share with friends

Dream big, reach the stars! I’ve talked a lot about digging deep into figuring out your real why, examining your goals and figuring out what you really want in life. Some may call it goals, some may call it a plan, but when it comes down to it- what we are really talking about is dreams.

Dreams for some means examining what you want and giving yourself permission to believe you will someday get there. For others dreams are merely an escape from reality.

Whatever it is, dreams allow us a mechanism for thinking about a better life. A life where we do what our heart desires. A life we spend living with purpose and with passion.

These dreams quotes will inspire and delight you and provide you with a pinch of inspiration and a whole lot of motivation to create the life of your dreams and live with purpose and passion!

What Dreams Mean To Me

I’m a huge believer in manifesting your own destiny. In laying out a clear plan and pathway to achieving what you want in life, Be it wealth, financial freedom, better health, holidays, or houses! I know that I have a much better chance of my life turning out the way I want if I spend time on both planning, then manifesting my goals.

I wanted to work towards having an investment property to increase my passive income streams. I created a vision board, and found an image of a property the type of property that I wanted to buy. A cute villa, that a family would love to call home. 2 years later. I won the negotiation for a property that would uncannily be the spitting image of that home i pinned on my vision board.

The home on the left is what I bought, the home on the right was pinned on my vision board!

I also wanted a holiday home where my family could spend time and have as a base for coming together over the years as everyone grew. Again, I created an ideal image of what I wanted in my head, found a picture that represented my goal, then, also made that dream a reality!

These are big examples of making your dreams come true, but I also plan, strategise and create goals and dreams around every day things.

Weekly I plan my wellbeing. I write down what I want for myself that week. Then, every morning I go back to my list and have a mental check in on what my weekly focus points are.

I have a whiteboard (a sticky one from 3M) on my office wall where I write yearly goals each January. Things like what I want for my health, my family, my short term business goals, my longer term life goals. Plus, how I want to feel, how I want to treat myself and others and small things i need to remember daily that are meaningful to me.

Dreams for me are ways to move closer to happiness. I turn my dreams into plans, and my plans into action. Working in small steps each day towards my ideal of a life that I love.
