ABSORBED IN THE FOCUS...DREAM BEAM 23

I've noticed since I've started my Lovin Our Dreams, Dreamy-to-Doing 23 days ago, that I've been so focused on one dream, to publish my children's book, The Town of Plizz Dot; that I didn’t realize what's really been going on!  Another dream has been easily happening with little effort from me! Isn't that magical how dreams work?!


Here's a quote that I posted the first day of Lovin Our Dreams, Dreamy-to-Doing, Dream 10,000 dreams knowing that 10,000 dreams is only the beginning! I just love this quote from the book of WOWISMS words of wisdom for Dreamers and Doers.


This beautiful quote is just a reminder that it is our given universal right to have as many dreams...more than enough to go all the way to the moonbeams and back!

So for today, stay focused on your dreams but take off the spectacles for a little while. Let the magic of dreamland do its thing. Are there other dreams, connections that are happening, people offering assistance, that maybe you haven't noticed? For you to embrace the gifts that are being offered you have to realize they are being offered!  So go grab some gifts!


Have an excellent "unfocused" gift receiving day!! xxxxoooo Michelle

...and remember, forget about giving into those dream zappers! (Hope you had fun being a dreamy super hero...dream beam 22 zoom to post for a little positivity power dream ignitor juice, you can borrow my cape if yours is in the drycleaners or laundry basket :)

DREAM YELLER...DREAM BEAM 21

Today, I decided I'm gonna start yelling about my dream, but for fun.  Fun yelling is so much well funner than yelling, "Put your dirty clothes in the laundry room!"

Is your dream in the Whisper stage or yelling or somewhere in between?  Or have your ever thought about it that way? 

You know when your dream is just starting and you are nervous about telling anyone because of all the what if's that creep up or because it's a fun little secret that you have all to yourself and that keeps you going.  Well, that's the whisper stage.

I think the Yelling stage usually comes when your dream is complete and your ready to promote it. But, hey, I'm not complete with my dream of becoming a children's book author, but I'm yelling to everyone that's my dream!  Because why wait?

Today, I'm yelling (in a fun way, like at a football game) to everyone, I need a publisher or an illustrator for my book, The Town of Plizz Dot.  A decision has to be made.

I'm sure I'll flop and fling back to the whisper stage off and on but for today I'm gonna have some fun yelling going on, wanna join me?  xxxxoooo Michelle

(the whisper to yelling to everything in between stage is all my dreamy thinking, no scientific studies are happening on this just me having fun figuring out where my dream is at)

DREAM DIFFERENTLY...DREAM BEAM 13

Thank you so much for joining me for day "13" of Lovin Our Dreams, Dreamy-to-Doing!

Have you ever thought of your dream differently? 

I think seeing our dreams in a different language just opens up the possibility playroom, expands our dream boundaries to endless, as well as makes our world a little closer. Give it a try, see what your dream looks like differently. I just used an on-line translator. xxxxoooo Michelle

I love my dream! 私は夢を愛しています！Jeg elsker min drøm! J'aime mon rêve ! Ich liebe meinen Traum! Αγαπώ το όνειρό μου! Amo il mio sogno! Jeg elsker min drøm ! Kocham moje marzenia!Eu amo meu sonho! Я люблю мою мечту! ¡Adoro mi sueño! Jag älskar min dröm! ฉันรักความฝันของผม” I love rüyamın!

Here is my dream (to publish my children's book, The Town of Plizz Dot) in different languages (I was only going to do 13 but I got on a roll).  To me, its exciting and beautiful seeing my dream in all those different languages!

SMILE...DREAM BEAM 12

YOUR DREAM IS!




(I'm having so much fun researching my dream -  yesterday's dream beam.  I'm gonna keep researching :) If you haven't  researched the fun way give it a try!  I'm coming up with some great ideas. 

I believe the more fun you have in your life the more inspired your dreams are to help you!   xxxxoooo Michelle

DREAM RESEARCH...DREAM BEAM 11

For today's Dream Beam, do some research on your dream but have a blast!!

I am going to do some research my children's book. As a hint, snowflakes are involved.  So my research is taking me to a snowy place for a couple of days.  Research for your dream should be fun right?  Who says research has to be all boring and technical.  :)

xxxxoooo Michelle

HICCUPS IN THE DREAM...DREAM BEAM 9

We all have them with our dreams, hiccups or frustrations that come along as we're pursuing our dreams.  One of mine happened January 30, just 2 days before I launched my month long,
Lovin Our Dreams, Dreamy-to-Doing starting February 1st.

My computer crashed, I lost everything!  So now I'm doing this on the fly!  :) As I'm retyping my blog ideas, books, cover and query letters I am at least thankful I have some hard copies!

For today's Dream Beam, hiccups will happen that's just a given and they happen at the worst possible time that's also a given.  For me, after I got over the initial freak out and bought my new computer I realized, I still love my book, The Town of Plizz Dot, it's my dream to get it published and as I'm retyping it I'm looking at it with fresh eyes and I might make a few changes here and there.

During the times of hiccups, or at least after the initial freak out, look at YOUR dream with fresh eyes maybe this hiccup will make you realize that you do love your dream and it is worth the extra do-over work.  Remember, all these hiccups make your dream, your dream.  You have the choice to give up on it (which is totally cool, but do you really want to, we would really miss your dream), take a little break or get in there and tackle a little or big hiccup or a whole bunch of them.

Thanks for joining me today, if your new here, check out my previous posts, starting February 1st, I am giving a "Virtual Dream Beam" just for you to encourage your dream!

I'm gonna go tackle some hiccups and you know what? I'm going to have an excellent day doing them, I hope you do too!   xxxxoooo Michelle

DREAMING-TO-DOING...DREAM BEAM 4

You can't fulfill your dream until you start your dream! (I love this quote from my dreamy husband).

Nyla and I had fun making this dreamy Valentine's Day snowglobe!  She whipped up this little card just for you. I love how she instantly came up with these inspirational words! She said, Mommy you have to put this on your blog!  So I am.  I thought about having her re-write the little card so that first was written correctly and all in the same color but then I realized, if I tried to get her to write it over it might never happen and I just love the simplicity of her words. 

Don't worry about waiting until everything is perfect to start your dream. Your dream is going to make our world sooo much better! I just know it!

DREAMY TO-DOING...DREAM BEAM 3

Thank you for joining me this month of Lovin our Dreams, Dreamy-To-Doing!

For the month of February each day you will find a "Dream Beam" of encouragement to help our dreams come to life.

Today our Dream Beam is about finding your Fan Club (support) for your dream.

Lucky for us we already have the Dream Beam Fan club just waiting to provide encouragement; to be our dream advocate, embrace us and provide gentle challenges and champion us as those challenges arise. 

Sometimes we forget that our "fan club" is filled with a variety of resources, (not just people, also the Internet, library, nature, classes, music and most important remember YOU just to name a few).  

I got my inspiration for these cute and tasty dream beam fans from this awesome blog, called FlexibleDreams, she calls these cuties Nilla Girls.  Heres how you make them.   http://www.flexibledreams.com/2011/02/nilla-girls.html  

(My daughter, Nyla and her friend Kenzie and I had a lot of fun making these cutie pies! Nyla likes to call them the Fashionista Fan Club :)   These will also make a tasty treat for Valentine's Day.  Instead of candy melts we used icing and food coloring only because we didn't have that.


Here's a quick Dream Beam review: (refer back to previous post)
Dream Beam 1 - Discover your Dream
Dream Beam 2 - Have a visual tidbit, your practical friends (goals) join you as you are doing your habits
Dream Beam 3 - Find your Fan Club 

Thanks for joining me today, have an Excellent Day! xxxxoooo Michelle
