Living the Dream is a Journey to be Enjoyed

I believe very strongly that every person in Network Marketing should have a written list of 25-100 things would like to do or accomplish while they’re building their business.

Creating this list helps remind us of what we’re working towards, and it is highly motivating when we are able to check off items along the way.

Yesterday I got to check off a long-standing item on my list: See Dream Theater in concert

Dream Theater is an extremely talented progressive rock band. Last night I saw them in Milwaukee with my daughter Emily. It was a amazing show and we had a blast.

Here’s The Best Part

Dream Theater’s drummer, Mike Portnoy, is one of the best in the world. During the concert, Emily had gone up to the front of the stage to take pictures. Mike saw Emily standing in front, winked at her, and tossed one of his drumsticks to her! It was the only stick he threw to the audience then entire show, and Emily was the one who got it. We were both super excited.

The Point

When you make your list of 25-100 items, make sure you include plenty of items that can be accomplished and enjoyed along the way. Review your list on a regular basis and jump at the chance to make any of the items happen.

If everything on your list is only obtainable far out into the future, how will you ever know if you’re truly making progress on the life you want to live? Remember, the dream is more than just a destination, it’s a journey to be enjoyed. So start enjoying it!

In the mean time, it’s also okay to have some items that might take awhile!

Wow, you definitely do want to have a list of things that you want to do when being successful. That way it will help you to stay focus during the slow times.

Really awesome that you conquered that Dream, and got to spend a moment to remember "Forever" with your daughter. Moments like this are precious indeed Walter! See you in Houston!
