Can Making Dreams Come True Be As Easy As Brushing Our Teeth

What if making dreams come true is just so easy? Can we let go of our doubts? Is it possible? How can we do it so magically so that it is as easy as brushing our teeth? This excerpt from ONE Book by Masami Sato shows us exactly how to do it step-by-step, preparing you to start walking towards your dreams today.

All of us have dreams. But all of us do not have faith in ourselves so that we can have those dreams and live them in our lifetime. In fact, the secret to have such assuredness is simple. And the reason why we hesitate so much is also straightforward.

Let’s begin with the first question that we can ask ourselves

Why don’t we do the things we want to do?

Often, our thoughts stop our actions. Sometimes the more we think about it, the less we become committed to accomplish what we initially wanted to do. Because the more we think about it, we come up with more and more reasons for not doing it.

Then is it possible that one can be certain that one will definitely accomplish what one wants to do in his life?

Sure, absolutely! To start with, let us look at the power of habits

If we have to be present at a meeting tomorrow night, we would not be spending too much of time thinking whether we would be able to get there or not. We would not be worried about the possibility of having a car accident and failing to attend the meeting. In fact, when we go to use the toilet, we are unlikely to worry if it might be out of order.

We are always more assured about these day-to-day activities that happen every day. These are the habits.

However, we are doubtful about our dreams

Most interestingly, there are plenty of things we are not equally sure about. Particularly the things that we really want to in life – our Dreams!

So, what is the secret for the assurance that we will realize our dreams?

First: Decide to make it a daily habit!

We can start being more certain about our actions to meet our desires-the type of desires that really nourishes our life.

So, for example, if your dream is to give and contribute to society and giving is a key desire in your life, there is no reason to doubt that it’s possible for you to contribute to others. It can just become one of your daily habits.

Second: Try to make it as important (and as much easy) as brushing teeth..

Achieving our dreams can be just like brushing our teeth. It wouldn’t feel good if we didn’t brush our teeth for a long time, would it? We wouldn’t spend hours thinking of which toothpaste to use or delay the good feeling of having clean teeth for other ‘priorities’. We feel uncomfortable if our teeth are not clean. So we just clean them!

Looking at our example, if giving is what we desire most, then we should ask ourselves a few questions: What if giving is truly as important as brushing one’s teeth? What if it is giving us a comfortable feeling? What if it aids in remaining healthy?

Irrespective of how much or how little we own right now, we surely can start offering it and sharing it today. As such, no matter how improbable the realisation of dreams might appear, we can start walking towards them today. We can definitely do, if we see it as a crucial issue, a top priority that we should stick to every day! Then we will be uncomfortable if we do not do it. Just like cleaning our teeth.

and Third: Give first, then we will get

When we start giving before we even have what we hope to get – that which we dream of – we are sending out a powerful message to ourselves which tells us, ‘there is enough, and more will come.’ It allows us to feel the joy today – the joy of giving.

If you want to be wealthy, be munificent. Then you are sure to be blessed with abundance. If you are intelligent enough to do so, do not hesitate to teach others. Then you will learn more. If you feel like giving, just give the whole of you. And do it without expecting anything in return. Just let go. The act of giving is its own reward. The simple satisfaction of giving.

So do not be hesitant to dole out and share what you have, for it will not prevent you from achieving your purpose, whatever it is. It will only help you to realise your dreams more easily. And your journey through that path would be full of joy.

But are not habits smaller, in comparison with our BIG dreams?

Just do it, don’t be concerned about the ‘scale’

Anything can happen in life. Things may develop in a small way. And these small things might take us to another action, and that will connect to another. The sureness we feel about our actions, and managing them one by one, keeps on taking us forward. But if we think that it is not possible to do something now, just because it is a little formidable, it simply will not happen.

The power to achieve one’s dreams has always been there, and will always be there. Those who have managed wonders, sensations, and real joy, already know this. They go on using it.

Visions and miracles do not happen accidentally. We choose to create them.

So, would you probably start going towards your dreams today?

Discover Your ‘Giving Bee’ Personality

Bees are all giving by nature. They give naturally to maintain the environment of abundance. But each bumblebee actually takes a different focus in maintaining the colony as well as the flower garden. So, I thought human beings are the same. We are all naturally giving and sharing. But we tend to express our giving in different ways. So, here it is a ‘giving bee’ chart where you can find your bumblebee type. Watch out for the following bee analysis! The more you share your value as a giving bumblebees, the more we can all do together to make a difference.

Bumblebee type analysis

1. Change-making bee

A giving bee who likes to see change – who spots every opportunity to do something better and worthwhile. A change-making bumblebee often starts up new interesting projects for others to participate in. A flexible thinker who can collaborate well with others while often taking a leadership position in making change. Many business people and inventors are this type of giving bumblebee. They are not afraid of having change.

2. Believing bee

A giving bumblebee who believes in one core belief very strongly and inspire others to follow. Rather than changing all the time and being way too flexible, this giving bee attracts others by being solid like a rock and integral to the unshakable belief and vision. Some of the religious leaders as well as political leaders are this type of giving bumblebee. Believing bees makes for a great leader who attracts masses of followers. This bumblebee also can be a great follower who strongly supports an existing belief and excites others to come together.

3. Caring and nurturing bee

A giving bee who may not stand out as a firm leader but actually are the biggest heart focused giver. A caring and nurturing bumblebee is selfless in giving and is always first to take the giving action when seeing anyone in trouble. Though this bee seems gentle and caring, the strong desire to give and care for others drives this giving bee to demonstrate some marvelous giving acts. Many people who dedicate their lives to giving (volunteering, community service etc) are this type of bumblebee. Giving is totally natural to them.

4. Supporting and uniting bumblebee

A giving bumblebee who sees the largest value in connecting and cooperating in effective partnerships. This giving bee is very focused on finding existing great ideas, mechanisms, philosophies or beliefs to benefit the community. It tends to support what resonates with him/her more often than coming up with a brand new way. A supporting and uniting bee is less attached to own way and has more flexible mind while being quite strategic about what to support. Rather than taking direct action emotionally, this bumblebee sees the value in creating the long-term unity. Long-term ‘quiet’ charity givers and those who take low profile in community giving but stick to the same project for a long time are more often than not this type of bumblebee.

Sort Your Drainage Problems Using CCTV

Over time, drains and sewers, like all of us get older and in time will deteriorate and get worse. Walls can collapse, blockages can occur and the result is that you get drainage problems. The cause can be things like ground movement, intrusion from things like tree roots or it could be that the drains are simply badly constructed in the first place.better to know rather than guess at the root cause of problems underground

Drains run underground mostly. Stating the obvious I know but that means that you can’t know for sure what is going on inside the pipe. The problem could be a blockage, or equally, a collapsed wall, a tree root intrusion, and also many other possible causes of the problem with your drains. Not knowing to me is not an option, better to know what you’re dealing with so that preventative measures can be taken

Once you know that you have a drainage problem, there are a couple of ways that you can diagnose the problem. Using CCTV, there are two systems available to you. These are the push rod and also available is the crawler system. The push rod and the crawler system are both available through reputable drainage specialist- better perhaps to know that they are available so you can ask your drainage contractor which they carry. They should carry both systems

For drainage systems and lines of over 150mm, the crawler system is the best one to use. For smaller drains (less that 150mm diameter), the push rod system is used. Full and comprehensive reports can be produced through using these systems as they show exactly what is the condition of the underground drains

An experienced CCTV operator will look out for a variety of problems. Collapsed drains can look remarkably similar to blocked drains and the two problems may need to be tackled in different ways. Tree roots can be seen through the camera lens. Surveys can be written up into a document and then written to a DVD so that they can be stored and recalled easily in the future

If you are planning to build and extension to a property, CCTV can be used for a build over survey. Basically, this is a survey of the drainage condition underground so that you can see the condition before building over them. If you bury a problem, it will be much more expensive in the future should problems arise in the future
