Maak jou droom ‘n werklikheid

Maak jou droom 'n werklikheid | Lynette Beer

Waaroor droom jy? Ek praat nie nou van dit wat jy droom as jy slaap nie. Nee, ek praat van al daardie dinge of dalk is dit net een groot iets wat jy oor dagdroom. Jy weet, die boek wat jy nog wil skryf; die besigheid wat jy wil begin; die kursusse wat jy nog wil doen...

Dis lekker om te droom, want dis maklik. Jy hoef maar net daaraan te dink en dan is dit daar. ‘n Lugkasteel wat jou laat
glimlag. Dis presies wat dit sal bly, tensy jy nie iets daadwerkliks daaraan doen nie.

‘n Droom is soos spookasem, dit lyk mooi, maar dit smelt sommer weg as jy daaraan probeer vat. Wat of wie verhoed jou om jou droom werklikheid te maak? Jou omstandighede dalk? Miskien jou finansies of gebrek daaraan? Die waarheid is, as jy vir die perfekte oomblik wag, gaan jy jou lewe om wag.

Net jy kan jou drome laat waar word. Hoe? Raak prakties. Skryf jou droom neer. Bekyk dan wat jy geskryf het, en omskryf dit as ‘n doel. Jy sien ‘n doel het ‘n begin en ‘n einde. ‘n Doelwit vra ‘n plan van aksie.

Om die plan van aksie op die been te bring, moet jy twee belangrike vrae kan beantwoord. Die eerste is, “waar is ek nou?” en die tweede is “waar wil ek wees?” As jy die antwoorde op papier het, dan kan jy aan die derde vraag begin werk, “hoe kom ek by my eindbestemming?”

Dis waar jy begin om kleiner doelwitte vir jouself te stel. Dis maar soos skool. Jy begin in Gr R en kan nie sommer net spring tot in Matriek nie. Nee, jy moet stelselmatig deur elke skooljaar werk en leer totdat jy die finale eksamen kan skryf.

Drome word nie oornag ‘n werklikheid nie. Dit verg baie tyd, navorsing, opoffering en harde werk. Kyk weer na die droom en doelwit wat jy neergeskryf het. Is dit regtig wat jy wil doen? Bid daaroor en gee dan die eerste tree om jou droom ‘n werklikheid te maak. Moenie uitstel nie. Begin vandag, al is dit net om na te lees oor hoe ander hul drome bereik het. Belangrikste is om nooit op te gee nie. Die ou spreekwoord in Afrikaans sê “Aanhouer wen.”

Anriëtte Schoeman, ‘n Suid-Afrikaanse fietsrykampioen wat al sewe keer die Argus fietswedren gewen het, het onlangs gesê: ““Every pro was once an amateur. Every expert was once a beginner. Dream big and start now!” Waarvoor wag jy?


Uit die Woord:God omgord my met krag; Hy maak my pad voorspoedig, Hy maak my voete soos dié van ‘n ribbok; op hoë plekke laat Hy my stewig staan. ” – Ps. 18:33-34

The Four Temperaments in the Health Care Industry
By Lynette Beer 25 Apr, 2023
I have to date, not met any successful healthcare worker without a deep love for people. Empathy and caring for people's needs should form part of any nurse or doctor's make-up – unless they choose to spend time in laboratories or the admin side of the industry.
The Four Temperaments in the Classroom
By Lynette Beer 25 Apr, 2023
If there is one place knowledge of the temperaments could save one's bacon, it is in the classroom. Teachers who know the characteristics of the four temperaments would invest in their survival and peace of mind by applying this knowledge to the learning environment.
The Four Temperaments and Stress Management - Finding Balance
By Lynette Beer 25 Apr, 2023
Stress management is not a nice-to-have skill. If anything, dealing with stress could be a lifesaver. For many corporate positions, it has become a prerequisite for employment.
The Impact of Temperament on Communication
By Lynette Beer 18 Apr, 2023
Communicating is a vital life skill that does not come naturally to all. When it comes to talking, the Red and Yellow temperaments have no problem at all – to the contrary, they are talkers par excellence. As the storyteller and performer, Yellow could make an impromptu speech with little or no warning, while Red could persuade a large group to follow his course or buy into his concept. But listening – the other crucial ingredient of communication - is a skill both Red and Yellow must practise.
The Four Temperaments and Leadership: How to Effectively Lead a Team
By Lynette Beer 18 Apr, 2023
Although the two extrovert types, Raving Red and Yappy Yellow, are traditionally the apparent leaders, all temperaments can lead a team. It is a misconception that introverts do not make good leaders.
Navigating Romantic Relationships with Different Temperaments
By Lynette Beer 01 Mar, 2023
Although opposites often attract, there is no scientific proof that this is the norm. However, it is common to find an introvert marrying an extrovert or a people-oriented person finding a task-oriented Red or Blue attractive. This could be a subconscious step to compliment him- or herself or simply make sure that he or she does not have to perform a duty that does not come naturally or comfortably.
Exploring the Four Temperaments in Parenting
By Lynette Beer 01 Mar, 2023
‘Know Thyself’ has never been as crucial as in the parenting role. Parents have often told me that the child they battle the most with is the one that resembles them – in character and temperament. Flaring up against young Jimmy because he shows signs of your own shortcomings is human – but not fair.
The Groovy Green Temperament and Decision Making
By Lynette Beer 01 Mar, 2023
Groovy Green hates making decisions – it comes with the temperament… He or she is a master procrastinator and good at passing on the decision-making buck. Feeling unworthy and not ‘good enough’, clever enough or competent enough to make any decision, is almost a natural reaction for our Green brothers and sisters.
