Goals vs Dreams

Every once in a while we need to stop and listen to this inner voice within us. As one of my friends says, there are 2 voices for every person – the one in the heart and the outsider. Most of our lives, we diligently follow what the outsider says. More often than not, the outsider is not us…that is not what we truly want. That is what the people around us have instilled in us to believe we want. Therefore, I come back to my point – Every once in a while we need to stop and listen to this inner voice within us.

The inner voice asks me to dream. It also asks me to set my goals – realistically. It tells me exactly what I am and what I am capable of. The outside voice tries to deceive me into thinking it is not good to dream.

Today, I had a battle – the outsider vs the insider. The insider won. The goal remains personal but I can share the end result – I am happy. This is what truly matters – inside happiness. Nothing else.
