Big dreams don’t ask what you want.
They ask what you’re willing to become.
It’s easy to admire the outcome.
It’s harder to accept the identity change it requires.
The question isn’t whether the dream is worth it.
It’s whether you’re ready for the cost.
New habits.
New standards.
New discomfort.
Big dreams don’t fail because they’re unrealistic.
They fail because the version of us that imagined them refuses to evolve.
Every meaningful goal carries a quiet follow-up question:
Are you ready to become what this requires?
Who this is for?
Anyone holding a dream at arm’s length.
One action:
Name one trait the future version of you must have — and practice it today.
