The gift of someone else’s dream

Nothing is more inspiring than hearing from others about what they want in life, if they are willing to share authentically.

If you are looking to discover what you want, ask others what they want. Not so you can copy their dreams and desires, but so you can feel the energy of possibility. It is also valuable to see the blocks that come up for others about what they want, because we tend to be much more generous with others than with ourselves. We can see that someone else’s concerns, fears, and doubts could be easily overcome, yet it’s always harder to see that with ourselves. Feeling how powerful and deserving someone else is will remind you of how powerful and deserving you are.

That said, people often don’t know what they want because they haven’t given themselves permission to see. You can be the gentle encourager that helps someone see something new, while also helping yourself see something new.

What if seeing someone else’s dream could help you see yours?
