Every week I'll discuss working toward your big dreams. Tune in and engage with me!
Welly likes to sit in my lap, and he is my therapy dog. Sometimes you just gotta hug a doodle and your life just feels really good. Happy Friday.
Every Friday Marissa discusses how to make your big dreams come true. She says she always live in a space where she's working toward her big dreams. If you speak it, it will come true, she says.
Sarah: Sometimes your dreams take a break and then you kind of forget about them. Luke: What are you doing to revisit your big dreams? Sarah: You sometimes have to trust the process and the journey and then wait patiently.
Dreams sometimes need to simmer on the back burner and to eventually. be moved to the front burner for it to come true. That is so, so true. Turn up the heat on that.
Lukewarm Friday message comes from the Cadre community feed. Think about what are the big dreams that you have been putting on the back burner. Pull down and refresh the screen on your big dreams. Tell me in the community feed what you are going to revisit.
I thought I would put welly in the shot today, you guys, because who doesn't love a doodle? A little. A little therapy dog action. He likes to sit in my lap, and he is my therapy dog. And I just wanted you guys to get a little dose of dopamine today for this boy sits with his mom. Anyway, happy Friday. This is a not how I usually start off a live stream, but this is life. This is where we're at. And sometimes you just gotta hug a doodle and your life just feels really good. I have some notes for today, as per usual, and I'm gonna let him down.
Okay, lay down. What's up? Happy Friday. The doodle scene is now over. Okay, today I want to talk about revisiting your big dreams. So obviously, you know, every Friday I jump on here and talk about how to make your big dreams come true and just kind of like what my practices are for working toward my big dreams. And I kind of like to live in this space I call dream stasis, where I never leave this visualizing of my big dreams, and I never leave this space and time of, you know, this ability. You always have the ability 24/7 Marissa.
Hi. You're in my time zone. I know that you never leave this ability to sort of visualize your life exactly where you want it to be. I always live in a space where I'm working toward my big dreams. I don't ever get down on myself and say, that's not going to happen. I can't do that. I don't use the words I can't really when it comes to working toward my big dreams. And I encourage you not to either, because if you speak it, it will come true. And nobody needs to be getting down on themselves. So today I want to just talk quickly about what it means to revisit your big dreams, because I think a lot of times we get really ambitious when we start writing things down or talking about the things that we want to do.
But what do you do when you've gone away from that space? How do you get back there? And how do you revisit the goals that you once had for yourself? What's up, junk food junkie? Sometimes your dreams and anyone who knows me or follows me on Instagram or knows me and my dog, sometimes your dreams take a break. And that is a command that I taught my dog when he is going too hard in the paint with his toys and he's driving me a little bit crazy. I taught him take a break, and he knows that that means chill out, go lay down, put your toy down, and give mommy a quick break.
Sometimes your dreams take a break and then you kind of forget about them. Like, I'll forget that he's even bringing me a toy and I'll get back into my zone. It's the same thing with your dreams. Sometimes they get on the back burner or they take a break or they need time to marinate or they need time to brew a little bit, or they just need time to grow and they need to mature a little bit. So I'm inspired to talk about this because oftentimes I will take out this journal that I have, and I've actually been so bad about journaling.
This journal started, I think, in 2021, and it's not that big. What's up, Luke? It's not this huge journal, but I missed a lot of days, so I like to go back, and I'm starting to practice writing this every day. Writing this every day, every day, every other day. But I like to go back and sort of, like, read what my big dreams were last year, the year before, a few months ago, because chances are some of those dreams have been forgotten or they've been put by the wayside, or they've just been brewing or in the process of maturing.
So I completely believe in planting the seeds of your dreams. Cause you can't be working on every single one of them all the time, 24/7 but having a process for planting the seeds and then watering them, and then sometimes you just have to leave them. They need to take a break, like welly style, and you need to let them do their thing. Right. You sometimes have to just trust the process and the journey and then wait patiently. Oh. Sarah smiles. I'm so glad I'm here. Right now. I'm in the middle of a big break.
I need to get back on my dream. Oh, you were meant to hear this. That, like, fuels me. So your dreams are taking a break, welly dog style. But what are you doing to revisit them? So I'm going to give you a couple of practices. Sarah, this is specifically for you today and anybody else who might have let their big dreams go by the wayside and, or they've been fertilizing them or watering them or letting them mature. Maybe they're sitting in the crock pot and you said it and forget it. Right? Let's go back and revisit those big dreams.
So how do you put this process into practice? For me, it's what I just talked about. Number one, I go back to my journal, right? I go back and read and I reevaluate. I look at a couple of things. Number one, what was that big dream? What was that big goal, and has it come to fruition? Is it serving me anymore? Is it something that I want to work on? Did it already happen for me? Has it come to life? Like I maybe manifested it in 2001? Did it happen? Is it something that serves me? Or is it something that I want to put my time and energy into?
And does it fit in with where my life is at now? So I always reevaluate that. I love to go back and see what I was wanting for myself a couple years ago. This is why I write a letter to myself. If you've been here for a while, you know, I write myself a letter every new year's Eve. I open it the following year and write a new one. And it's a cycle that I do because I think, you know, in that year's time, like, a lot can happen, but I also. It's a. It's a manifestation practice, but I think it's important to look back and see, like, does that big dream still serve you?
Do you want to give it that attention? That leads me into, number two, if it is something that is still in process, it's still in the crock pot, right? It's simmering. Do you want to do the work on that? And is it time to start doing the work? And what does that mean? Does that mean that you start really manifesting it in a bigger way? Are you writing things down to start to get in the mindset that it's already happened for you? Are you doing future gratitude listing? Like, I am grateful for whatever this big dream is coming true.
Do you want to go harder in the paint on making that big dream come true? That's up to you, I think if it serves you in this time and, you know, it's something that you still want while it's been marinating, you need to go harder in the paint on it. And if it's something that doesn't serve you, maybe you leave it in the past. But I think revisiting this big dream and saying, like, you know what? I didn't put enough into this big dream. This big dream is not going to make itself come true. You need to figure out, is that something that you want to keep doing?
And number three, I think you need to practice gratitude. I think everything sort of starts in this gratitude phase. Like I just mentioned, this future gratitudining that I've been doing forever is writing down like I am grateful for and then write the thing that hasn't happened yet because it is a form of manifestation, but feeling grateful that you are able to go after that big dream. I think everything starts with gratitude. It starts with being grateful for the people around you that could help you make it happen.
Being grateful for the opportunity to make it happen. Just practicing gratitude in general is something that I do to revisit the big dreams that I have. So I want to read a quote from you, and before I do, I will catch up on a couple of these comments. What's up, Alec? We had a great little chat this morning. Luke. Thank you. I love you guys. Dreams sometimes need to simmer on the back burner and to eventually. And it will be moved to the front burner for it to come true for you. That is so, so true.
I couldn't agree with that more. That little back burner, man, it just. It's sitting there simmering. You got that sauce going. You got that splatter screen going for your spaghetti sauce. Where's Dan when we need him? But then, yeah, move it to the front burner. Maybe the front burner is the bigger burner. Maybe you need to light that fire a little harder. Turn up the heat on that. What's up, Jill and Mary? Girls mentorship. Let's go. Okay, so I wrote myself, we're going back. We're taking it back to February 15, 2021.
I was in Colorado for my dad's 70th birthday, and I brought my journal with me, and I'm so glad I did because I wrote this quote down that I had seen that day. Your future self is so proud of the person you are becoming. All of the sacrifices you've made are going to pay off in ways that you didn't even expect. Embrace the miracles that life presents. Enjoy the present moment, because the universe has an incredible path aligning in your future. Rest well knowing that all the inner work you are doing is illuminating so many lives that come into contact with you.
And I just thought, wow. Like, I am so glad that I journal. I am so glad that I write things down that inspire me, and I'm so glad that I have the ability to look back and say, okay, where was I in that moment? What did I have on my heart that I wanted to work on? And I think that if you get into this practice of writing things down every day that you want to achieve and then going back and refreshing, pull down and refresh, just like you do on the Cadre community feed and write like you do on the app.
Like pull down, refresh, and really think about what are the big dreams that you have been putting on the back burner. Like junk food junkie said that need to be reignited. So I hope that this inspires you to go back and see what you need to revisit and what you maybe need to stop taking a break from. And it's always really good to take a break and maybe other things are happening in your life, but go back and revisit. Are those big dreams getting the love and attention that they deserve in order to come to life?
Do they even serve you anymore? Do they have a place in your brain space? Do they deserve a place in your life? Or have you already made them happen? And can you check them off your list? There's nothing I love more than checking things off a list. Where's my list? This is my GSD list. I order it on Amazon. It's just a plain checklist with check boxes next to it so I can tell myself what my dreams and my goals and my tasks are going to be that day. So I encourage you to write, write, write, revisit, revisit, revisit, and then really recharge and refresh.
Pull down and refresh the screen on your big dreams. So I love you guys so much. If you missed the very beginning, you should go back and watch it. Once this populates to the app because I had welly on my lap and it was glorious. And I love you guys so much. So if you haven't already, go head to Cadre IO for a nice little surprise. There's some really exciting things happening over there. And if you know somebody that you think could benefit from the Cadre app that has a corporation or a company and needs to know about what's happening at Cadre, share the website to them.
They can book some time with Luke to talk about how Cadre can benefit their company. Just, I believe that this app was put here for a reason, for people to get what they need, take what they need, and just share the love and create such conscious, positive community. And I'm so proud to be affiliated with this company and to get to talk to you guys every Friday. It's like therapy for me just to be able to do this. And the notes that I have from prepping for all of these live streams. I could write a book.
I could write a make your big dreams come true book. So, thanks to you, because you all inspire me to bring you these kinds of messages every Friday. So go tell me what you're inspired by in the community feed. I'll respond to you and I hope you guys have an amazing weekend. And yes, junk food junkie and Sarah, I want to hear about what you are up to. So tell me in the community feed or just find me online and tell me what you are going to revisit and what you're going to refresh in terms of your big dreams.
I want to know what happens when you come off this big break. And junk food junkie, remember, your little dreams lead to your bigger dreams. I couldn't love that more. Celebrate the little dreams, because they do become the big dreams. Love you guys. Have an amazing weekend. What about my vintage sweatshirt? How fun is that? Love.
