Dreams are not supposed to be realistic. They are not descriptions of reality. You see, they are dreams. And you'd better dream big. I want you to think of your dream and now I want you to think, how can I make it bigger? And bigger can be adding a zero to your revenue goal. Bigger can be. Let's see. If your dream is to write a book, you can say, now my dream is to become a best selling author. If your dream is to become athletic, your dream becomes bigger. Your stretched dream can be run a marathon. If your dream is to expand your business, maybe your stretch goal is to go across the borders with that dream. Okay, so first step, before you write it down, think, how can I make it bigger? And step number two, before you write it down, how can I make it faster? This is another way of making your dreams a lot more stretchy. You know, sometimes you can make them bigger in size and sometimes you can narrow down the time. The time you give yourself to do something is the time it usually takes you to do it. So make sure you can make it faster.
