    What This Podcast Is All About!
    2018/05/15

    This is the Dare to Dream Podcast with Rev Lisa Ealy, Episode O. Today, in this introduction, we will talk about what it means to Dare2Dream…. And what this podcast is all about!

    I want to take this time first to honor God as the head of my life and the director of all things Lisa including Dare2Dream. Please allow me to read a scripture into your hearing and follow with a prayer.

    Ephesians 3:20-21 Now glory be to God, who by his mighty power at work within us can do far more than we would ever dare to ask or even dream of—infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes. 21 May he be given glory forever and ever through endless ages because of his master plan of salvation for the Church through Jesus Christ.

    Lord we pause in prayer to give your name honor and glory, may this new Podcast Dare2Dream reach beyond, above and around each and every obstacle to provide the women this podcast with reach, the ability to break free and do what you have called them specifically to do, allow them here and now to manifest their dream, give them wisdom to be daring, to be bold and be gratefully to give your name the hone and glory. Amen.

    I am Rev. Lisa Ealy, and I am the founder of Dare2Dream and the founder of The Purple Squirrel Group and Real Girlfriends Pray. I am the author of the 21-Day Dare2Dream Devotional Journal and soon to be the second book.
    For many of you who are meeting me for the first time on this Podcast. I am overjoyed that you are joining me on this journey and hope and pray that you will learn, grow and even cry with me while laughing and having a lot of fun along the way!

    The podcast will officially launch on in May. In the meantime, I want to take a few minutes to talk about the concept Dare2Dream, where it came from and why I am so passionate about it.

    Dare2Dream is a mantra, a statement of intention, a motto and even a prayer of hope it is also a commitment to the manifestation of what is to come. It is also a challenge to meet, and goal to achieve and a way of life.

    It’s a Mantra, I am daring2dream, use it as a guide to ensure you are operating boldly, that you are operating at the highest level possible, that you are daring to think differently, to act differently and to achieve that which may have been outside of your grasp.
    Daring to dream may feel like an elusive goal, but that is why I am here. You see I have been daring to dream my entire life. Ultimately, this Podcast is about taking the leap to Dare2Dream and put one foot in front of the other with the needed and required guidance, prayer, tools and information to manifest your dream job sooner. The truth is that I am sure it will assist you with your dream job search, but it will also help in your life as well.
    I believe from the very bottom of my heart that Dare2Dream has the potential to change every person that will hear it and I am inviting YOU to be apart of this movement. Starting in May you will be able to join me on a regular basis for a new installment of Dare2Dream. I am also hoping you will share this movement with your friends and join us on social media using the hashtag #Dare2Dream.

  • Reclaiming Our Time

    Reclaiming Our Time
    2018/05/28
    This is the Dare to Dream Podcast with Rev. Lisa Ealy, Episode 1. Today, our episode will focus on claiming your time so that you can manifest your dream career. I want to take this time first to honor God as the head of my life and the director of all things Lisa including Dare2Dream.  Please allow me to read a scripture into your hearing and follow with a prayer. Psalm 90:12 “So teach us to number our days, that we may present to You a heart of wisdom.”  Job 8:9 "For we are only of yesterday and know nothing because our days on earth are as a shadow.” Let us pray - Heavenly Father, we acknowledge your presence, as we take time to reclaim and claim our time. We are speaking life into our future selves. This is the time, the year that we will make time our own, take time to me to plan, to envision, time for self-care, time for fun, time for laughter, time for vacations, tome for meditation, journal, to be with you and to seek out your call for our dream job. Claim and name and every perfect gift come from you.  Give us the time to take the time and make the most of our time. Hi, I am Rev. Lisa Ealy, and I am the founder of Dare2Dream. Let jump right into our topic today “Claiming or reclaiming our time.  The time we have is important. Time is a precious gift. Once it is past or expired, we can never go back. For me, I am placing a stake a hold on my time. Yesterday’s time is but a memory. Sometimes a found memory, sometimes it’s a nightmare, and we move quacking to get to the next day some it can fade away. But either way, time is so critically important. The importance is more so related what we do with our time. What we can accomplish, and how we utilize the time we have, and the memories we might create along with new experience time gives to us. I ask myself why am I in a hurry to get things done I rush and rush until life’s no fun. I am not talking about using my time in this way. I am talking about savoring my time, cherishing my time, placing importance on my time.  Understanding the significance time has and the importance of it. Realizing that time is precious, time is not being wasted nor flaunted, my time is worth so much, and I so little of it to give, and none of it to waste.  Time is all we have; My time is now, My time is my own, my time, yes to say it differently This is MY time. So, women of God I am taking MY Time back… No, I am claiming and reclaiming my Time.   Time is our most precious resource. It is perishable and irreplaceable. God in his grace has given us all the same amount – 24 hours per day. The quality, joy, and impact of our lives are directly related to how wisely we use the time we have. In addition to our ability to manifest our dreams is a direct relation to how we use each and every 24 hours we are given.   The important thing about time is we have to preserve it in how we utilize it. The first step to utilizing out time to the fullest is to declutter.  The question is - What is clutter and why do I need to declutter? Clutter is what is taking up space related to your time, your energy, and the spaces you live, work and spend time in and around. This is a critical step in manifesting your dream job because when we are bogged down with clutter and the weight of too many things going on or happening all at once or even the clutter associated with too much news and too much meaningless television. Our minds, bodies, and spirits are full of this, and there is no room for anything new let alone an ability to focus on Manifesting our Dream Jobs. There are a few things I need you to do these next few days as homework. Take Inventory, Log how you spend your time. (Track it for 24-48 hours including one typical weekday and one weekend day)Inventory your workspace, your home, and your car. (taking note of what is there and what is there that is just taking up space.)Inventory your spending habits.Capture all of the results and then think about these questions:How do you feel about what you learned?Is there anything you need to change? If so make it into the form of a goal.For Example: Beginning on May 1, I will limit my television time to 2 hours per week. Once you complete this activity, then begin considering how you want to begin to spend your time.   And as you stop some activities don’t focus on what you are giving up but focus on what you will be gaining. And then begin to think about your goals. Be sure to share your results by connecting with us at Dare2Dreamcareers.com and use our hashtag Dare2Dream. As I close I have a few reminders. I thank you from the very bottom of my heart for listening to our Podcast today Claiming My Time.  Starting in May, you will be able to join me on a regular basis for a new installment of Dare2Dream. I am also hoping you will share this movement with your friends and join us on social media using the hashtag #Dare2Dream. It would be great if you would take a few moments to subscribe to the podcast on ...

  • Focusing On Your Goals

    Focusing On Your Goals
    2018/06/04
    Welcome to the Dare to Dream Podcast with Rev. Lisa Ealy, Episode 2. Today, our episode “Focusing on your Goals” - to manifest your dream job. I want to take this time first to honor God as the head of my life and the director of all things Lisa including Dare2Dream.   Please allow me to read a scripture into your hearing and follow with a prayer.   Scripture: Phil 3:13-16 Beloved,[a] I do not consider that I have made it my own;[b] but this one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the heavenly[c]call of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let those of us then who are mature be of the same mind; and if you think differently about anything, this too God will reveal to you. 16 Only let us hold fast to what we have attained. (NRSV) Let us pray – Gracious God, I’m not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don’t get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I’ve got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning me towards —to Jesus. I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back. So let’s keep focused on that goal, those of us who want everything God has for us. If any of you have something else in mind, something less than total commitment, God will clear your blurred vision—you’ll see it yet! Now that we’re on the right track let’s stay on it. Amen. Let jump right into our topic today “Focusing on your Goals” - to manifest your dream job. When we begin to focus on our Goal, we do something called pressing in or leaning in. So what is Press - It is a steadily applied weight or force, to move in a certain direction, Strain with urgency, haste or great attention. How fitting for our theme “Focus on the Goal, Press towards the goal.” Scripture Says to Press towards the High Calling of Jesus.  And that is so applicable to our topic today. What I know to be true is that things that are high or sitting high are often hard or hardest to reach.  We either must stretch, get on our tippy toes, get a stepping stool, or ask for help or unfortunately never reach what it is that we were reaching for in the first place. And that won’t do when we have a goal to reach and no time for delay.  So, let’s keep on pressing, keep on reaching and keep on striving to reach and ultimately manifest our dream. Because the only time of truth is right now.  We know that the gift of life is only given right now. We must learn to let go of past if we wish to experience our lives in the present. We must learn to let go of the pull of the future as well. I heard a wise woman say, “that is future tripping.” which is something that may not ever come to pass, but none the less we are spending today’s energy focusing on it. Then we have the past, the past is a memory to cherish and to grow from, and the future is promised to no one. Realize Deeply, that the present moment is all you have.   “If your mind carries a heavy burden of past, you will experience more of the same. The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.” – Eckhart Tolle   “My Presence is my Super Power to create the future I See and Want.” The Future God is calling all of us towards.   Your goals, vision, and mission will drive your ability to achieve your dream career but not just that - it will also dive your ability to achieve your dream life and anything else you desire to manifest.  Let me say that again – Your goals, vision, and mission will drive your ability to achieve your dream career but not just that - it will also drive your ability to achieve your dream life land anything else you desire to manifest.  So, keep going -  keep pressing - keep leaning in towards the prize of your highest calling, don’t hold yourself back, don’t allow fear or sticking thinking, the old self or the lizard brain to stop you. Learn to love the butterflies in your stomach and let them lead you onward towards your dream job and dream life. Just simply lean into the highest calling and look and see what happens.  I recall when I was in my twenties… I attend a class at church during what we called them the Christian Institute. A week of intense Christian learning. The instructor talked about praying over our goals, but first shared the importance of writing them down, some call this making it plain. I call it capturing your dream planning.  It does two things, it provides a focus for your prayer - but when you achieve, and you will achieve it -  it is a reminder and will push you forward to achieve more than you ever thought possible.   Now I do not want you to think that prayer is a magic formula or like fairy dust, but there are times when God ‘s answer to our prayer is Yes! But there are other ...

  • Attracting Abundance

    Attracting Abundance
    2018/06/11
    Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:8 “And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have an abundance for every good deed; Deuteronomy 1:11 “May the LORD, the God of your fathers, increase you a thousand-fold more than you are and bless you, just as He has promised you! Deuteronomy 30:9 "Then the LORD your God will prosper you abundantly in all the work of your hand, in the offspring of your body and in the offspring of your cattle and in the produce of your ground, for the LORD will again rejoice over you for good, just as He rejoiced over your fathers; " Prayer: Let us Pray -  Our Gracious and heavenly father, As I sit here opening myself up in prayer, I lift holy hands in total adoration to you. I am ever grateful, and thankful for just simply who you are. Lord, I thank you for going out ahead of me each day, I think you for rain and sunshine. …more of this wonderful and beautiful life. Amen. Today, as I meditate on where I am in my life, just on the other side of 50 and approaching a birthday later this week.  I feel so blessed to have done so many wonderful, and fun things, having been blessed to experience and live the life that I have, and I am so grateful for all of it.  As I peer back but while standing flatfooted looking forward to the promise of the future I am leaping for joy, and even more thankful for it all.   A few weeks ago, I shared in a conversation with a colleague, she happens to be a physician and she discussed the fact that the neck does not allow us to turn our heads completely to the rear or to see what is behind us the same when in which we can see what is in front of us. She made a great point, and I expand it to think of it in this practical way.   When you are driving your automobile, they all have rear view mirrors. One above in the middle, one on the left and another one on the right. And if your care is fancy, you may even have a rear camera with a screen, that will show you what is behind you while you are backing up…. With all this technology to stay safe while backing up or while switching lanes. The front window in combination with the side windows is one of the largest areas on the front of a car. I say that because there is a reason for that. It is simple it’s in the design….  Because looking forward is also how our heavenly father or higher power designed us - to look forward and not backward. I say all of this to emphasize the importance of when we look forward we put ourselves into a position to receive.  Just like in basketball, we must be in the position to receive a pass, in football, our feet must be planted, and to go a step further - we must also be in bounds and have control over the ball after the catch, or it is ruled incomplete. It also means - To be ready for the day or Carpe Diem (to Seize the day), and this can never happen when we are not focused on moving forward.  Nor can it happen when we are not focused on receiving, focused on the catch and most importantly focused on the abundance that is available just for us.  Reserved in the library of life, with our names on it.    Be ready for it and Be ready to receive it. I want you to get this, to plant it deep inside of you. What is important about abundance: Abundance is a Soul at Peace -  what does it profit a woman to gain the whole world, and forfeit her soul? “For what will a woman give in exchange for her soul?” The evil one can offer you the world at a very high price.  Never agree to pay or to the terms that lead you to going in the wrong direction – It will cost you more than you are willing to pay, it will take you to places you never intended to go, and don’t belong – and It will keep you longer than you ever intended to stay, - it JUST COST way TOOO MUCH. Abundance is contentment –The problem with all the counterfeits of the enemy and the world is that they leave us wanting more.  We are not fulfilled, we wanted thanksgiving dinner but had fast food instead, and are still hungry.  It leaves us just wanting more of the wrong things. … BUT the wonder of God is that His abundance comes with contentment. Here is what Paul said - “I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am. I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need.  Because - I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.” Contentment is not found in how much we have but in who has us. God offers us the heart of contentment that is found not in treasures here but an eternity with Him. Abundance is being free to be me - When I say free to be me, I to be the “me” that God created each one of us to be. You see abundance is found when we find and sought after and become what we were was made to be. This is no different that Daring2Dream. Daring ...

  • How To Eat An Elephant

    How To Eat An Elephant
    2018/06/25
    Welcome is the Dare to Dream Podcast with Rev. Lisa Ealy, where we focus on helping spiritually minded professional women get unstuck to manifest their dream job and get unstuck to live the life they have been called to. Scripture: “Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.” 1 Chron 4:10   “May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.” Psalm 20:4   “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans. “Proverbs 16:3   Prayer: Shall we pray – Heavenly Father, you are the one and only true and living God, and we know you have our plans in your hand and they have been established since the foundation of the earth, we pray for direction, guidance, and wisdom, we pray for enlarged territories, and we pray that nothing with hurt or harm us. We commit our plan to you as we not go forward to see what the end will be. Amen. How do you eat an elephant? I know it’s a crazy thought, eating an entire elephant. It is no different than the big goals we have identified for ourselves.  If you are anything like me I made bigger than life goals for 2018. Some of which were so big I would literally have to work day and night to accomplish. But, I knew that when I made them a goal during my visioning for 2018.  What I also, know to be true is that I have never seen the righteous forsaken or His seed begging bread (Psalm 37:25b) Yes, maybe you have heard you can only Eat an Elephant One Bite at a time.  When you are when dealing with a large task, goal, or project it is one bite, one step at a time. These last few weeks I have really been struggling with being overwhelmed with all that needs to get done, we are planning for guest visiting us, I have two new team members I am onboarding, and to top it off my A/C in my car is in need of repair. And living the DMV in June it is super-HOT. My Elephant is my coaching business Dare2Dream (actually, my dream job!)  are all the things in need to be doing now versus later, thee ideas that I need to get on paper and the other ideas I need the help of my team to accomplish.  It’s fun but all very hard work. Here are few suggestions to get you on track with eating your elephant and not feeling overwhelmed:   The first thing to do is reflect on your relationship to the elephant. Is it YOUR elephant, i.e. is it YOUR goal? Is it YOUR dream? Are you working on what you think you “should” be doing, or setting a goal to make others happy? If it’s not your elephant, decide how much power you want to give it. What do you have a choice about? Can you decide to release attachment to the goal, knowing you have bigger fish –  or elephants – to fry?   So, let’s make and assumption you have decided that the elephant is one of your choosing; You have decided to out your goals first (put on your air bag so to speak) you’ve named it Dream Job, Book or Blog, Vlog, Side Hustle or Relationship or New Career or Cleaning Out and Decluttering, Getting a New Mindset.  How will you feel once you have it… stop and close your eyes for a moment?  And really think about HOW YOUR WILL FEEL.   Try renaming the elephant to reflect what you want to experience. Focus on your intention. Using this guidance, my Dream Job (elephant) might sound like this: I feel empowered and confident as I share my unique voice with the world. I am making a difference in the lives of the women I work with, I am leaving the world a better place, I am transforming lives. I am helping others to reach the place God is calling them too.   Does this help? By focusing on what I You/I want to feel, You/I are opening up to possibility that it will happen. My elephant might evolve, and if I’m too focused on a specific make and model, appearing at a specific time, I might miss an even better outcome.   Some other tips for keeping the elephant in perspective:   Be Authentic: Keep showing up you and only the “real to you” with authentic intentions and goals, the more likely you are to be committed and take action.   One Bite at a Time: When you feel overwhelmed, it helps to remember to take your commitments and actions and break them into bite size pieces, or fun size goals. Remind yourself that you have choices about what you say “yes” and “no” to, and when and how you move forward. Let your yeses be yes and noes be no.   Celebrate Your Wins: Each time you reach a milestone, celebrate it! Treat yourself in a way that feels appropriate. Acknowledge your progress and channel that positive energy into taking the next bite.   Enlist Helpers:  Get a coach who will help you stay on track and who will support you.  Keep connected to people who inspire, encourage and challenge you. Hire me as your Dare2Dream coach to help you.   Eliminate Negative People:  Stay away from ...

  • The 5 S’s to Feed Your Soul

    The 5 S’s to Feed Your Soul
    2018/07/02
    Scripture: Finally, sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. (Phil 4:8) For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline. (2 Tim 1:7) Consider it pure joy, my brothers, and sisters,[a] whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. (James 1:2-3)   Prayer: Father God, We know that whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, it all comes from our source, our gracious and Heavenly Father. Lord, we thank you that you have removed a spirit of fear as far as the east is from the west, and placed in our hearts, power, and love and a sound mind to do your will and seek after our goals and dream daily in the name of Jesus, Amen.   Let’s hop right to our topic- The 5 S’s to feed your Soul. I want to share the 5 S’s and then break down each one a bit if that’s OK.   The 5 S’s to Feed Your Soul:   SourceSilenceSolitudeStillnessSanctuary   First Source. The Source of all things, that which created the heavens and earth, that which breathed life into us.  For me, it is God Almighty. For me, it is not beyond the realm of possibility for the same God to be known by different names – but one source, yet all speaking in our tounges. My source is Adonai, my All and All. Without my source, I am nothing at all.  I honor and lit up my source. The goal here is to read the instructions that God let for us, read His word daily. You can start with the scriptures found in this podcast.   The Second S is Silence. This world is so noisy.  We are all overly stimulated with news, constant videos and television streaming, along with music, text notifications and notices, video games, Facebook, Instagram, Snap Chat and all the many screens we have access to and use, the passwords we must remember, the information we ingest and must report out on – it is ALL JUST TOO MUCH. Even when we go shopping whether online or in person, there are millions upon millions of choices and decisions to make. There is information that we are only capable of a limited number of decisions we can make each day. I mean good, well informed, sold decisions. This is why Mark Zuckerberg and the Steve Jobs of the world wear primarily the same thing every day. When we remove, all the unnecessary, and insignificant decisions, we can truly be silent. Consider what you can remove from your every day to gain some silence.  When I first experience silence on a higher level, I never expected what happened - to happen.  When my family and I first moved to the DMV, I began to test my theory, and I drove home to Ohio alone with no radio or sound at all. I was amazed by what happened to me on the inside. I found my ride refreshing, as I was able to take in the beauty of fall and all the beautiful colors, purples, reds, oranges and yellow. I felt a connection with God and his creation that I had not experienced since my time in Hawaii. The concept of being still was for me - taken to a whole new level.   The Third S is Solitude. If our minds are consistently being triggered, and it is influenced it is very difficult to achieve any level of solitude.  The type of solitude I am refereeing to is when you can sit with your thoughts, and focus on what you need to accomplish, do, dream or just simply be without other tasks, other people’s needs or just sitting still…. without anything interrupting your solitude.  I recall a time when I thought I had achieved this, and something reminded me that I was not at the level of solitude I thought I was. I was listening to the radio, and an advertisement for a large big box department store came on, and they were advertising a white sale., but not just any white sale but the largest white sale of the YEAR, so large in fact that as they said I didn’t want to miss it.  I was only a few blocks from home, but I found myself turning around in my car heading in the opposite direction to go and partake of the White Sale. Then it hit me -  I did not need any additional sheets or towels… and I turned myself around and headed back home. I share this story to emphasize the importance of our solitude and the importance of our need to have it and the importance of guarding it and placing boundaries around it for our greater and greatest selves, and for up leveling, for reaching your high vibration self.   Stillness is the fourth S. Scripture tells us to be still and know that I am God. (Psalm 46:10) Why be still you ask. We are still so that we can hear, see, feel and touch our source. God is always speaking to us, but because we are constantly moving, it prevents us from hearing, seeing and feeling His presence. We are not available for God to place in our souls and spirits that which is essential for us to manifest our dream jobs. God...

    The Power of Dare2 Dream
    2018/07/09
    Welcome is the Dare to Dream Podcast with Rev. Lisa Ealy, where we focus on helping spiritually minded professional women get unstuck to manifest their dream job to the live the lifestyle they have been called to. In Episode 8 we will focus on “The Power of Dare2 Dream.”  I am so excited to share episode 8 of the Dare2Dream Podcast with you. As we take this journey together, I need to share with you that 8 is a very important number in my life. My birthday is on the 8th, my line number when I pledged was 8 and eight also represents eternity.  In addition, this is 2018. So as an extra special recognition for the number 8. For the eighth person to connect with me on social media Instagram or Facebook. Our scripture for this Podcast: “Be strong and courageous and do the work. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD God; my God is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you until all the work for the service of the temple of the LORD is finished. (1 Chronicles 28:20) “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6) “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9) Prayer: Gracious God, we are grateful that you have given us hearts of strength and courage to dare to dream. Lord lead and guide us along the way so we can be more daring, so we can overcome every obstacle and walk into our destiny and dreams, Amen. In daring to dream my hope and prayer is that everyone I touch on this journey forward will be somehow transformed in exactly who they were called to be. The deepest desire in my heart is that some small part of this podcast, the Facebook group or the coaching or webinars or book. The most important in Daring to Dream is courage. The 4 keys to Daring to Dream: CourageStrengthFortitudeBelief First Courage.  According to Colin Powell courage is, Courage is not about self-aggrandizement or increasing your own power, or bravado, or desperate initiatives. It’s about the willingness to respectfully, relentlessly, and unapologetically challenge people – including the smartest, toughest people around you – in the pursuit of unit goals and performance excellence.” But for this type of courage, you need to first walk your talk.  But wisdom is also part of true courage. We must seek the wisdom of God to know when to step and when to wait. When to seek, when to pray, when to fast. But not just the what but also the how. Secondly Strength.  Strength is a combination of courage and wisdom. There is no strength without first courage. Strength starts where courage ends; Strength is like muscle memory.  Like the memory foam in products. When you use your muscles, they flex and build.  When your muscles flex and build.  Strength is the ability to impact change. Robert Schuller says, “Tough times never last but touch people do.” Take this all in and ask what does it mean to you. How will you strengthen yourself? The Third Fortitude.  Fortitude in its purest form is a synonym for courage and strength.  It is courage in adversity; it is bravery. Or exhibiting bravery in the most difficult of circumstances. Think back to a time of your seemingly worst days, you felt depressed, your marriage or relationship was failing, or you did not have a relationship at all. You were by yourself, peering with pea green envy at the window other people’s happy lives. You were kicked out of school; you were fired from your job, your car was reposed, you were on the brink of losing everything…. BUT GOD..  had a fire of courage, strength, and fortitude burning inside of you to get up, to speak up, lift your head up, and to put just one foot in front of the other…. And before you knew it things began to change. Think back on this time not trying to forget but try to remember, how you felt, what you did to overcome, and the joy in your heart when you came through on the other side of your pain…. This is the type of fortitude I am speaking about.  This is the thinking that allows you to think beyond common sense and get out of your own way. Fourthly Belief.  In the song from The Wiz staring Diana Ross and Michael Jackson, Lena Horn encourages Dorothy through the song “Believe” Believe you can use this experience to get through anything. Of course, I pray that you never reach that level again, but use what you have to get to where God is calling you. You can do it, what you want is BIG, it’s so big in fact it scares you to death. This is right where God wants you to be. A wise man Rev. Dr. Fowler of Akron Ohio shared in a talk I attended he shared that his only regret in life was that he did not dream bigger. He had not set his bar higher. So on today, Dare2Dream set your bar so high that it is out of your reach, You can’t even see it in the ...
