4 Simple Steps For Turning Your Dreams Into Reality [EXPERT]

Whether you hope to change jobs, go back to college, travel or help others, you may feel overwhelmed by your day-to-day responsibilities, causing you to never give your wishes a second thought. Many of us wish to travel more, to experience new places, new foods or new cultures. Seldom do we find a way to make our dreams a reality. With a few helpful strategies, you can create your own wish list to conquer. So, in honor of World Wish Day, here are four steps that will explain how to make your dreams a reality. Turn Your Goals Into Reality

1. Make a list. Believe it or not, this step isn't as simple as it seems. Most of us know we want something, or we want to go somewhere, but we don't know exactly what we want or where we're headed. It's difficult to know what you're interested in until you begin to probe your own thoughts. How Do I Make This Year The Best Of My Life?

Ask yourself what do you want from life? Is there something you wish to do? To probe further, try watching the Travel Channel, Food Network, National Geographic and other networks that constantly visit new places, explores other cultures and investigate the unknown. Once you've answered these questions, you can begin your journey to fulfilling your wishes.

2. Research. This step can save you a lot of time, money and stress. For instance, if you've always wanted to get involved and become a humanitarian, you would need to research charities in your area. A simple Google or Bing search could help you narrow down which organization best suits your interests. From there, if you hope to do more globally, these organizations may have contacts in other organizations around the world seeking help. If not, as I mentioned before, you can search your way to a larger organization — such as the Red Cross — who may welcome your assistance.

Next, if you've always wanted to travel around the world, there are many websites and blogs devoted to just that. When you research, you will discover a wealth of resources, such as cost cutting tips and affordable places to visit. Location affects cost. For instance, it's less expensive to travel throughout parts of Asia and South America versus traveling throughout parts of Europe. In addition, there are resources on how to safely travel as a single parent, alone, or with family, setting and staying on a daily budget while traveling and so on. Traveling Solo?

If you've always wanted to try skydiving, river rafting, rock climbing, gem mining and so on, Bing and Google can easily help you uncover these extreme adventures nearest you.

However, if you've always thought about changing careers, but have no formal training in your new field, then research is key. When I switched over from a career in science and nursing, to a career in English and writing, I had to research multiple facets of English and writing.
