Single-minded determination. Or bull-headedness. It’s a double-edged sword. I know I’ve been called stubborn a time or two. Or thirty five. And not in a good way, either.

What kind of sacrifices are you willing to make for your dream?
Once upon a time, if you had asked me about sacrifices, I would have said I wasn’t making any. I had willingly traded in my kitchen for a tiny campstove. I didn’t mind the hassle of having to pull the various parts out of our panniers, assemble the stove, find a flat spot on the [...]
Making the decision to live a life less ordinary
You’ve probably heard this before, but while the trip itself is fascinating, it’s also the decision to do the trip that blows a lot of people’s minds, or creates the feeling of “Wow, I wish I could do that — make that decision.” We’re all so tied to the pillars of our everyday life — [...]
31 Days to a Dream: Stop making excuses
If you want to achieve your dream, you will need to stop making excuses and start marching. Excuses are your worst enemy. It’s easy to sit around, blaming others or your circumstances.

31 Days to a Dream: Celebrate Small Successes

31 Days to a Dream: Commit to your Dream
Dreaming is easy but bringing your dreams to life will be a challenge. If you’re not committed enough, you will fail miserably. You need to commit to your dream if you have any chance at making it happen. Your dream can come true as long as it’s fed with determination and self drive. Accept [...]
31 Days to a Dream: Change your mindset
The mind is one of the most complex characteristic of human beings. It is the element that enables thinking, perception, reasoning, judgment and human consciousness. Your mindset is influenced by culture, environment, religion, and the many aspects of life. Throughout your life, you’ve developed certain ways of thinking.

31 Days to a Dream: Don’t Fear Failure
What would you do if you were not afraid? That is the question I asked myself a few years ago when my husband and children wanted to ride their bicycles from Alaska to Argentina. And when I got really honest with myself, I had to admit that, if I wasn’t afraid, I would go with [...]
31 Days to a Dream: Go public with your idea
When it comes to making your dream happen and living your life the way you want it to be, one of the most important steps you can take is to go public with your idea. What exactly does that mean? It means telling others what your dream is. Letting the cat out of the bag, [...]
31 Days to a Dream: Break out of the rut
You’re in a rut. And you can’t quite figure out how to get out. It happens to us all. I’m convinced it’s the natural path of humankind. Life settles into a comfortable routine and, before we know it, we’re in the rut. On the hamster wheel. Spinning fast but getting nowhere. You CAN break out [...]
31 Days to a Dream: Believe in your Dream
You know that dream you’ve been tossing around in your head? Do you believe in it? I mean – DO YOU BELIEVE IN IT? Can you say with 100% certainty that this dream – this goal you’ve got – is something you want to commit yourself to? Really commit yourself to? I can tell you [...]
31 Days to a Dream: Believe In Yourself
We all have dreams. Some people go out there and make their dreams a reality while others maintain theirs as just that, a dream. Dreams can come true only if you believe in yourself enough to go chase them. Making your dream a reality is, however, not an easy matter. It takes a series of [...]
31 Days to a Dream: Define your Dream
What is your dream? Do you know? Is it some nebulous cloud of ideas floating around somewhere out there, foggy, undefined? Or do you know exactly what it is that you hope to do?
