Do you ever just sit and daydream? Let your mind wander into all the things you want in life? What do you imagine when you think about the life you’d love to live? What does it look like? What do you want to do? Who do you want to share it with? What experiences, people, and blessings do you want surrounding you?

As children, daydreaming comes naturally. We picture ourselves marrying Prince Charming and living in a castle, becoming a superstar, landing the perfect job doing exactly what we love, or becoming the best in the world at something we care about. Do you remember how it felt to be so excited about the future? So full of passion, hope, belief, and pure emotion?

Then somewhere along the way, the voices started creeping in—
“You can’t do that.”
“That will never happen.”
“You’re not good enough… not smart enough… not brave enough.”
“You don’t have enough money…”
“You just… can’t.”

So, piece by piece, we let go of our dreams. Sometimes all of them. Sometimes just a few. But the more we listened to those voices—inside our heads or outside in our environment—the harder it became to imagine anything different than our current reality. Dreaming felt pointless. Unrealistic. Even childish. We started telling ourselves not to dream too big, because disappointment hurts. So we stopped.

But here’s the truth: letting go of our dreams—burying the things that stir up passion inside us—is exactly what keeps us from creating the lives we want.

God created this beautiful, magnificent world by first envisioning it—in His mind—before shaping it into physical form. The same is true for us. Everything we want must first exist in our minds before it can become real. Our ideas and daydreams are the seeds. When we nurture them with our emotions—when we imagine them, feel the joy of them, and believe in them—they begin taking shape.

“Jesus said unto him,
If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”
—Mark 9:23

The Law of Transmutation teaches that everything—every object, every situation—is either forming or dissolving. Just like water cycles through vapor, clouds, rain, and ice, our dreams can shift depending on how we treat them. Heat turns water into vapor. Cold turns it into ice. The environment affects the form.

The same goes for our thoughts and desires. If we hold on to a dream—truly nurture it—it can move into form. Even if you don’t yet have the money or answers, if you keep believing, the universe has ways of delivering. Maybe someone gives you exactly what you’ve been hoping for. Maybe it shows up on clearance, or on your doorstep. There are countless ways your dream can find you.

But if you choose to doubt—if you let disbelief creep in—the process reverses. Your dream melts away, like ice turning back into water. It’s not gone. But it’s retreating, waiting for the right conditions to try again.

There are endless stories of people achieving incredible things against impossible odds. And the one thing they all share? They didn’t give up. They stayed connected to the dream. They felt excitement. They kept the hope alive. And they made it.

So can you.
God wants what you want. He wants you happy, enriched, and fulfilled.

Wallace Wattles in “The Science of Getting Rich” states:
“There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, and which, in its original state permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe.”

That thinking stuff—call it energy, call it spirit—is what shapes our reality. Have you ever thought about something and then seen it appear? It’s easier to notice with small things, but the same process works for the big ones too. Think of what you want. Feel the joy of it. Keep holding on. Then, watch it show up.

Sometimes it’s as small as an answer on a billboard. Sometimes it’s as big as your dream vacation manifesting into reality. Either way, the law is always working.

Everything is either coming into form or fading away.
When we understand that, we can choose to keep our dreams alive.
Our success lies in staying with the process—holding on long enough for what we want to appear.

Even vapor can become water again. The process isn’t over.
You’re not done.

So keep moving forward. Reconnect with your childlike imagination. Let yourself dream the wild dreams—the ones that fill your heart with excitement. Reach high.
Believe that good things do happen.
And believe they can happen for you.

“A dream is a wish your heart makes…”
you wake in the morning to find fortune smiling on you.
—Disney
