The 5 Major Stages You Must Go Through When Chasing Your Dreams

Last Updated on September 1, 2024 by The Unbounded Thinker

After studying the biographies of the successful, I realized that all of them went through the same stages of dream chasing. I summarized these stages into five stages, which I believe you’ll also go through if you are chasing your dreams.

Here are they:

Stage 1 – Idea

Here, you’ll give birth to a great idea that you’ll want to turn into reality. For instance, if you are an aspiring writer, you’ll want to turn your thoughts into a best-selling book, and if you are an aspiring entrepreneur, you’ll discover a wonderful business idea that you’ll want to turn into a successful company.

Stage 2 – Enthusiasm

After discovering the idea, you’ll visualize the life you’ll live when you’ll achieve your dreams, and you’ll tell your friends and family about this life. You’ll then research on how you’ll turn your idea into reality, and you’ll start chasing your dreams enthusiastically because you’ll want to live the life of your dreams as soon as possible.

Stage 3 – Disappointment

After chasing your dreams for 6 – 18 months, you’ll be disappointed because you’ll make little progress despite working hard. For instance, if you are an aspiring vlogger, you’ll realize that getting 10,000 subscribers is not easy, or if you are an aspiring entrepreneur, you’ll be disappointed because your business might fail to make profits.

Morever, you’ll discover that chasing dreams requires funding, yet it is difficult to get finacial support. Primarily, you’ll realize that it might take longer to achieve your dreams. These challenges will make you want to give up.

You might stop chasing your dreams at this stage.

Stage 4 – Perseverance

If you really want to achieve your dreams, you’ll decide to persevere. You’ll face obstacles fearlessly, and you’ll commit yourself to overcoming them. You’ll avoid everything and everyone that might prevent you from achieving your dreams. Rejection, failure, and naysayers won’t stop you from working hard.

You’ll also realize that only those who persevere achieve their dreams, and you’ll work like hell. Moreover, you’ll strive to make the journey enjoyable so that you don’t give up.

Stage 5 – Success

After chasing your dreams for a long period, you’ll become highly skilled, and many people will love your services/products. If you are a writer, many people will be willing to buy your books, and if you are a businessman, many people will be interested in your products. You’ll then use the money you’ll earn to buy whatever you want and travel wherever you want. You’ll be so fulfilled.

Conclusion

It’s easy to dream, but difficult to chase your dreams until you achieve them. Most people quit when they realize that they’ll have to work for a long period before they achieve their dreams. Only those who persevere succeed because they never give up.

SEE YOU AT THE TOP

THE END.
