Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.
Dreams come true when desire transforms into concrete actions.
One must realize that all who have accumulated great fortunes first did a certain amount of dreaming, hoping, wishing, desiring, and planning before they acquired money.
You may as well know, also, that every great leader, from the dawn of civilization down to the present, was a dreamer.
The greatest achievement was, at first, and for a time, but a dream.
Man, alone, has the power to transform his thoughts into physical reality; man, alone, can dream and make his dreams come true.
Practical dreamers do not quit.
Awake,arise,and assert yourself,you dreamers of the world. Your star is now in ascendancy.
Dreams are the seedlings of reality.
A BURNING DESIRE TO BE, AND TO DO is the starting point from which the dreamer must take off. Dreams are not born of indifference, laziness, or lack of ambition.
To win the big stakes in this changed world, you must catch the spirit of the great pioneers of the past, whose dreams have given to civilization all that it has of value, the spirit that serves as the life-blood of our own country – your opportunity and mine, to develop and market our talents.
When your desires are strong enough you will appear to possess superhuman powers to achieve.
A goal is a dream with a deadline.
Anything the human mind can believe, the human mind can achieve
